Todoist MCP Server

Move a project between personal and workspace contexts.

Add one or more new sections to projects.

Update multiple existing sections with new values.

Search for sections by name or other criteria in a project. When searching, uses server-side search to avoid fetching all sections.

Search for goals by name or list all accessible goals. Results are paginated — use the returned `nextCursor` to fetch subsequent pages.

Create one or more goals. Omit workspaceId for personal goals.

Update one or more goals by their IDs.

Complete or uncomplete one or more goals by their IDs.

Link or unlink tasks to/from a goal.

Add multiple comments to tasks or projects. Each comment must specify either taskId or projectId.

Find comments by task, project, or get a specific comment by ID. Exactly one of taskId, projectId, or commentId must be provided.

Update multiple existing comments with new content.

Add reminders to tasks. Supports three types: "relative" (minutes before due), "absolute" (specific date/time), or "location" (geofence-triggered). Each reminder must specify a taskId.

Find reminders by task ID (returns all reminder types), or get a specific reminder by its ID. Use reminderId for time-based reminders and locationReminderId for location reminders.

Update existing reminders. Each reminder must specify its type ("relative", "absolute", or "location") and ID. Only include fields that need to change.

View a file attachment from a Todoist comment. Pass the fileUrl from a comment's fileAttachment field. Supports images (returned inline), text files (returned as text), and binary files like PDFs (returned as embedded resources).

Add one or more new personal labels.

Update one or more existing labels. Personal labels (identified by ID) can have their name, color, order, and favorite flag updated. Shared labels (identified by name) can only be renamed.

List personal labels and shared labels. Personal labels have full metadata (id, name, color, order, isFavorite) and support pagination and name search (partial, case insensitive). Shared labels are labels used on tasks shared with you — they are returned as names only (no IDs or metadata). When searching, all matching personal labels are fetched across all pages and returned as a single result set (limit and cursor are ignored). When not searching, personal labels are returned with pagination.

List all personal filters or search for filters by name. Filters are saved custom views that use query syntax to organize tasks (e.g. "today & p1", "#Work & overdue").

Add one or more new personal filters. Filters are saved custom views using query syntax to organize tasks.

Update one or more existing personal filters with new values.

Retrieve recent activity logs to monitor and audit changes in Todoist. Shows events from all users by default (use initiatorId to filter by specific user). Track task completions, updates, deletions, project changes, and more with flexible filtering. Note: Date-based filtering is not supported by the Todoist API.

Get comprehensive productivity statistics including daily/weekly completion breakdowns, goal streaks (current, last, max), karma score and trends, and historical karma data. Useful for productivity analysis and tracking goal progress.

Get a comprehensive health assessment for a project including completion progress, health status (EXCELLENT, ON_TRACK, AT_RISK, CRITICAL), and optional detailed context with project metrics and task-level recommendations. Use includeContext=true for full detail including task data.

Get daily and optional weekly task completion counts for a project over a configurable time window (1-12 weeks). Useful for identifying completion trends and patterns.

Trigger a new health analysis for a project. Use this when the health data is stale or you want a fresh assessment. The analysis may take time to complete — use get-project-health afterward to see updated results.

Get aggregated health and progress insights across all projects in a workspace. Accepts workspace name or ID, with optional project ID filtering. Useful for a cross-project health overview.

Get a Markdown overview. If no projectId is provided, shows all projects with hierarchy and sections (useful for navigation). If projectId is provided, shows detailed overview of that specific project including all tasks grouped by sections.

Delete a project, section, task, comment, label, filter, goal, reminder, or location_reminder by its ID. Projects can be deleted whether active or archived (find archived ones via find-projects with archivedStatus); note a workspace project must be archived before it can be deleted, while personal projects can be deleted regardless.

Fetch a single task, project, comment, section, or goal by its ID. Use this when you have a specific object ID and want to retrieve its full details.

Reorder sibling projects or sections, and optionally move projects to a new parent. For projects: set order to reorder siblings, and/or set parentId to move under a new parent (use "root" for top level). For sections: set order to reorder within a project.

Get comprehensive user information including user ID, full name, email, timezone with current local time, week start day preferences, current week dates, daily/weekly goal progress, and user plan (Free/Pro/Business).

Find Todoist users (collaborators, teammates) by name or email to look up their user ID. Use this whenever the user asks to find, look up, or identify a person — e.g. "find Carrie's user ID", "who is Ernesto", "look up a user". When projectId is omitted, searches across the collaborators of every shared project the authenticated user has access to, plus the authenticated user themselves — an empty result means the person is not a collaborator on any project you share with them, not necessarily that they do not exist in Todoist. When projectId is provided, searches only that project. Partial, case-insensitive match on name and email.

Bulk assignment operations for multiple tasks. Supports assign, unassign, and reassign operations with atomic rollback on failures.

Get all workspaces for the authenticated user. Returns workspace details including ID, name, plan type (STARTER/BUSINESS), user role (ADMIN/MEMBER/GUEST), link sharing settings, guest permissions, creation date, and creator ID.

Search across tasks and projects in Todoist. Returns a list of relevant results with IDs, titles, and URLs.

Fetch the full contents of a task or project by its ID. The ID should be in the format "task:{id}" or "project:{id}".
