todo

The todo-mcp-server is a minimal Todo application built as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, allowing you to manage your tasks efficiently. With capabilities to list, view, add, remove, and clear todo items, this server provides a straightforward way for developers to integrate task management features into their applications or services. Its simplicity makes it an excellent choice for quick prototyping or learning about MCP architecture.

Once connected to the todo-mcp-server, you can interact with it using standard MCP queries. You can issue commands to list all todo items, add new tasks, remove existing ones, or clear the entire list. The best practice is to structure your queries in a clear format, ensuring that you specify the action (e.g., ADD, REMOVE) and the relevant item details. This will help you leverage the full functionality of the server effectively.

To install the todo-mcp-server, you will need to have Node.js installed on your machine. Here are two installation options:

• Option A: Quick start with npx
  You can quickly start using the server without installing it globally by running:

  npx -y todo-mcp-server
  

• Option B: Global install alternative
  If you prefer to install the server globally, you can clone the repository and run it locally:

  git clone https://github.com/idsulik/todo-mcp-server.git
  cd todo-mcp-server
  npm install
  npm start
  

Make sure you have Node.js installed before attempting these commands.

When configuring the todo-mcp-server, ensure that you handle any required environment variables such as port settings or database connections if applicable. A common gotcha is forgetting to start the server after installation; make sure to run the npm start command to initiate the service. Additionally, consider checking the server logs for any errors during startup to ensure everything is configured correctly.
