Things MCP Server

This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server lets you use Claude Desktop to interact with your task management data in Things app. You can ask Claude to create tasks, analyze projects, help manage priorities, and more.

This server leverages the Things.py library and the Things URL Scheme, with additional reliability features including:

  • Robust error handling with exponential backoff and retry mechanisms
  • Circuit breaker pattern to prevent cascading failures
  • Dead letter queue for failed operations
  • Intelligent caching for improved performance
  • Comprehensive logging with structured JSON output
  • AppleScript bridge for operations that fail with URL schemes
  • Rate limiting to prevent overwhelming the Things app
  • Extensive test suite for reliability

Why Things MCP?

This MCP server unlocks the power of AI for your task management:

  • Natural Language Task Creation: Ask Claude to create tasks with all details in natural language

  • GTD & Productivity Workflows: Let Claude help you implement productivity systems
  • Seamless Integration: Works directly with your existing Things 3 data

Features

  • Access to all major Things lists (Inbox, Today, Upcoming, etc.)
  • Project and area management
  • Tag operations
  • Advanced search capabilities
  • Recent items tracking
  • Detailed item information including checklists
  • Support for nested data (projects within areas, todos within projects)
