How to Use the AdaptiveWork (Clarizen) MCP in Cline

Q: Can I manage users with this server?

You can view users. The listusers tool gets a list of all people in your AdaptiveWork organization so you can check resource assignments from within VS Code.

Pull live project data from AdaptiveWork right into VS Code. Let Cline build internal tools and dashboards with it.

Build Dashboards with Live Data

This server gives your agent access to your projects and tasks. Use the `list_projects` and `list_tasks` tools to pull real-time status information directly from your AdaptiveWork account. Cline doesn't just show you the data. Tell it to "build a React component that displays all active tasks for the 'API V2' project." Cline will fetch the data using the MCP tools and then write the actual component code for you right in your editor.

Automate Project Admin in Cline

The `create_task` tool lets your agent programmatically add new tasks to your projects. This is perfect for hooking into your existing development scripts. Imagine telling Cline, "After this deployment script runs successfully, create a task in the 'QA Review' project to verify the changes." Cline will instrument your script to call the MCP tool, connecting your code directly to your project management.

Query AdaptiveWork for Code Gen

The `run_query` tool is your direct line to the Clarizen database. It accepts any valid CZQL query, so you can pull exactly the dataset you need for any task. Use this to have Cline write data-aware code. For example: "Write a Python script that uses `run_query` to find all unassigned tasks and prints them to the console." Cline will generate a working script that integrates with this MCP Server.
