Google Tasks MCP Server

What is Google Tasks MCP Server?

This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server bridges MCP clients (such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Codex) with Google Tasks, enabling users to manage task lists and tasks directly from the client.

How to use Google Tasks MCP Server?

Install dependencies with npm install, build with npm run build, then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop or Codex) with the path to the built server. Authenticate once via the authenticate tool (get a URL, log in, and use set-auth-code with the returned code); credentials are saved automatically.
