PM MCP Servers

MCP servers for AI-enabled project management. Enables Claude to interact with PM data.

Part of the PDA Platform.

Overview

PM MCP Servers provides Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that enable Claude Desktop and other MCP clients to interact with project management data. Built to support the NISTA Programme and Project Data Standard trial.

Features

• pm-data-server: Load, query, and manipulate PM data
• pm-validate-server: Validate PM data against standards
• pm-analyse-server: Analyze PM data for insights
• pm-benchmark-server: Benchmark PM AI capabilities

Installation

pip install pm-mcp-servers

Quick Start

Configure Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pm-data": {
      "command": "pm-data-server",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}

Example Queries

Once configured, you can ask Claude:

• "Load /projects/building.mpp and show the critical path"
• "What tasks are at risk of slipping?"
• "Convert this project to NISTA format"
• "Validate this project against NISTA requirements"
