Astravue Mcp Server

Astravue MCP Server

Click the image to download the full demo (with audio).

The Astravue MCP Server is a cloud-based bridge between your Astravue workspace and compatible AI tools. Once configured, it enables those tools to interact with your spaces, projects, tasks, time entries, and custom fields in real time. All actions are authenticated via OAuth 2.0 and respect the user's existing access controls.

With the Astravue MCP Server, you can:

• Search and browse spaces, projects, and tasks without switching tools.
• Create and update tasks, subtasks, checklists, and comments through natural language.
• Track time with live timers or manual entries and generate timesheet reports.
• Manage custom fields including dropdowns, dates, currencies, and more.
• Automate workflows like sprint planning, status reporting, and bulk task updates.

It's designed for project managers, developers, and teams who use AI-powered IDEs or assistants and want to manage work without context switching.

Setup Instructions

Claude Code

You have two installation options. Option A installs the full plugin (MCP server + eight productivity skills). Option B installs only the MCP server.

Option A — Install as a Claude Code plugin (recommended)

The plugin bundles the MCP server with eight pre-built skills that automate common project management workflows. It is listed in Anthropic's community plugin marketplace.

Inside Claude Code, run:

/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
/plugin install astravue@claude-community
/reload-plugins

Alternatively, install directly from this repository:

/plugin marketplace add AstravueOrg/astravue-mcp-server
/plugin install astravue@astravue
/reload-plugins

After install, run /mcp to confirm astravue is connected, then open /plugin and switch to the Installed tab to view the bundled skills.

See Anthropic's plugin discovery docs for installation scopes (user, project, local).

Option B — Install only the MCP server

If you only want the raw MCP server without the bundled skills, run:

claude mcp add --transport http astravue https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Your browser will open automatically. Sign in with your Astravue account and click Approve.

To confirm the connection, run /mcp in a new Claude Code session. You should see astravue listed with a green connected status.

Share connection across a project team

Add the --scope project flag to create a .mcp.json file in your project root:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope project astravue https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Commit .mcp.json to your repository so teammates automatically get the connection.

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"

Other MCP Clients

For any client that supports Streamable HTTP + OAuth 2.0:

| Setting | Value | | :------ | :---- | | Server URL | https://api.astravue.com/mcp | | Transport | Streamable HTTP | | Authentication | OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code + PKCE) |

SSE-only clients (mcp-remote bridge)

If your client only supports SSE transport, run:

npx -y mcp-remote@latest https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Point your client to the local mcp-remote process instead of the Astravue URL.

---

How It Works

Astravue MCP exposes workspace operations as tools that AI assistants can call. Each tool performs a specific action in your Astravue workspace such as creating projects, managing tasks, logging time, or retrieving reports.

When an AI assistant receives a request, it selects the appropriate tool based on the user's prompt and executes it with the required parameters.

> Authentication: All tools require an active authenticated session. If a tool call fails with 401 Unauthorized, reconnect your AI client to refresh your session.

> Destructive actions: Some tools perform destructive actions such as deleting tasks, projects, or spaces. Most AI clients require confirmation before executing these operations. Always review actions before approving them.

---

Permissions

Astravue MCP respects the same role-based access control as the Astravue web app. Every tool call is executed as your authenticated user with your existing permissions. You cannot access or modify anything through MCP that you cannot access in the app.

Organization Roles

| Role | MCP Access | | :--- | :--------- | | Account Admin | Full access to all spaces, projects, and tasks across the organization | | Admin | Full access to all spaces, projects, and tasks across the organization | | Manager | Can manage spaces and projects they are a member of | | Member | Can read and write within spaces and projects they belong to | | Guest | Read-only. Cannot perform any write operations through MCP |

Space-Level Permissions

| Action | Required Role | | :----- | :------------ | | List spaces, view space details | Space Member | | Create, update, delete a space | Org Admin or Manager |

Project-Level Permissions

| Action | Required Role | | :----- | :------------ | | List tasks, view project details | Project Member | | Create or update tasks | Project Member | | Add project members, delete project | Project Admin | | Manage custom fields, statuses | Project Admin |

Task-Level Permissions

| Action | Required Role | | :----- | :------------ | | View tasks, comments, checklists | Project Member | | Create tasks, add comments, log time | Project Member | | Delete a task | Task Owner, Task Creator, or Project Admin | | Delete a comment | Comment Creator or Org Admin |

> If a tool call returns 403 Access Denied, it means your account does not have the required role for that action. Contact your workspace admin to update your permissions.

---

Example Workflow

A user asks an AI assistant:

> "Create a new sprint called Sprint 5 and add tasks for login, payments, and API docs."

The AI assistant may execute these tools:

1. astravue_create_project — creates the Sprint 5 project
2. astravue_bulk_create_tasks — creates the three tasks in one call
3. astravue_update_task — sets priorities or due dates as needed

This allows complex project setup to be completed from a single conversation.
