MCP Overview

Connect AI coding assistants to Done Bear tasks using the Model Context Protocol.

The Done Bear MCP server lets AI coding assistants read and manage your tasks, projects, labels, teams, and checklist items. It works with any client that supports the Model Context Protocol, including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and Codex.

Done Bear hosts the MCP server at https://mcp.donebear.com/mcp using Streamable HTTP and OAuth. The standard setup no longer requires running a local npm package.

Quickstart

1. Add the remote server to your client
