Overview

What is asana?

The MCP Asana Integration Server is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides tools for managing Asana tasks and projects. It is intended for developers who want to control Asana via an MCP-compatible AI agent or client.

How to use asana?

Install Node.js (v14+), clone the repository, run npm install, then copy .env.example to .env and populate ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN, ASANA_PROJECT_ID, and ASANA_WORKSPACE_ID. Build with npm run build and start the server with npm start. The server uses stdio transport; a simple command-line client (simple-client.sh) is included for testing, and the server can be integrated into MCP by adding a "asana" entry to the MCP configuration with the path to dist/server.js.
