ClickUp MCP Server

clickup-mcp-server is a Python tool to set up MCP server easily and humanly.

Overview

🦾 A strong Model, Capability, Protocol (MCP) server for ClickUp API integration. This server provides a standardized interface for interacting with ClickUp's API through the MCP protocol, making it easier to build AI-enabled applications that leverage ClickUp's project management capabilities.

Features

• Multiple transport protocols (HTTP streaming and SSE)
• Environment variable configuration via .env files
• Consolidated data models for seamless API interaction

Python versions support

Requires Python 3.13 or higher.

Quick Start

Installation

pip install clickup-mcp-server

Running the server

The simplest way to start the server:

clickup-mcp-server --token YOUR_CLICKUP_API_TOKEN

Using environment files

You can store your API token in a .env file:

# .env file
CLICKUP_API_TOKEN=your_api_token_here

And start the server with:

clickup-mcp-server --env /path/to/.env

Client connection

Connect to the server using any MCP client implementation. Example:

• Using SSE transport

import asyncio
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.sse import sse_client

async def get_authorized_teams():
    url = "http://localhost:3005/sse"

    async with sse_client(url) as (read_stream, write_stream):
        async with ClientSession(read_stream, write_stream) as session:
            await session.initialize()

            tools = await session.list_tools()
            print("Available tools:", [tools])

            res = await session.call_tool(
                name="get_authorized_teams",
            )
            print("get_authorized_teams →", res.model_dump())

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(get_authorized_teams())

• Using streaming HTTP transport

import asyncio
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client

async def get_authorized_teams():
    url = "http://localhost:3005/mcp/mcp"

    async with streamablehttp_client(url) as (
        read_stream,
        write_stream,
        _close_fn,
    ):
        async with ClientSession(read_stream, write_stream) as session:
            await session.initialize()

            tools_resp = await session.list_tools()
            print("Available tools:", [t.name for t in tools_resp.tools])

            res = await session.call_tool(
                name="get_authorized_teams",
            )
            print("get_authorized_teams →", res.model_dump())

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(get_authorized_teams())
