About Flow MCP Server
Connect your Flow account to any AI agent and automate your project management and team collaboration through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Flow (getflow.com) provides a clean and powerful platform for organizing work, tracking task progress, and facilitating team discussions. Now, you can manage your workspaces, projects, and individual tasks directly through natural conversation.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code — it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Flow tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 12 tools through the Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Project Coordination — List all projects within your workspaces and retrieve detailed metadata, including ownership and due dates.
- Task Management — Create, update, and list tasks across workspaces, projects, or specific task lists. Change statuses (incomplete/completed) instantly.
- Organized Lists — Access and list task groups (Lists) within projects to maintain a clear hierarchy of work.
- Team Interaction — List all workspace members and teams, and participate in task discussions by reading or adding comments.
- Workspace Oversight — Get a high-level view of all the top-level workspaces you belong to.
- Real-time Updates — Fetch specific task details or metadata to keep your team informed and your projects on track.
