Install the package via npm (npm install @modelcontextprotocol/mcp-server-trello), then add the server to your MCP settings file with the required environment variables (TRELLO_API_KEY, TRELLO_TOKEN, TRELLO_BOARD_ID).

Frequently asked questions

How do I configure the server?

Add it to your MCP settings file with the `TRELLO_API_KEY`, `TRELLO_TOKEN`, and `TRELLO_BOARD_ID` environment variables set to your Trello credentials and board ID.
