Documentation
Full READMEAsana
Asana is a work management platform for tasks, projects, and goals. This plugin connects Claude Code to Asana's V2 MCP server so you can create and manage tasks, search projects, update assignments, and track progress directly from your terminal.
Migrating from V1? The V1 beta server (https://mcp.asana.com/sse) is deprecated and shuts down on Wed 5 Aug 2026. The V2 server requires each user to bring their own Asana OAuth app — Dynamic Client Registration is not supported on V2, so there is no zero-config connect. Follow the setup below (or run /asana-setup).
Setup
You only need to do this once. The fastest path is to run `/asana-setup` inside Claude Code and follow the printed steps, or do it manually:
1. Create an Asana OAuth app
- Go to the Asana developer console.
- Create a new app.
- Under OAuth, add this exact Redirect URL:
http://localhost:8080/callback(This is Claude Code's local OAuth callback. It is localhost by design — Claude Code runs on your machine and catches the authorization code on a local listener. It must match the --callback-port you use below.)
- Copy your Client ID and Client Secret.
2. Add the Asana V2 server to Claude Code
Run this in your terminal (not inside a Claude prompt — the secret is entered at a hidden prompt):
claude mcp add --transport http \
--client-id YOUR_CLIENT_ID --client-secret \
--callback-port 8080 \
asana https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp- Replace
YOUR_CLIENT_IDwith the Client ID from step 1. --client-secretwith no value makes Claude Code prompt for the secret and store it securely in your OS keychain (never on disk).--callback-port 8080must match the port in the redirect URL you registered.
