How to use Kanban MCP?
Clone the repository, install dependencies with npm install, build the TypeScript code with npm run build, and start the Planka containers with npm run up. Then configure Cursor to add a new MCP server pointing to dist/index.js and set the environment variables PLANKA_BASE_URL, PLANKA_AGENT_EMAIL, and PLANKA_AGENT_PASSWORD (default: http://localhost:3333, demo@demo.demo, demo).
