Direct task updates inside Cursor

Update your project progress using `toggle_task_done` the moment you finish a feature. Your AI client performs the operation directly, ensuring your project board reflects your actual code changes. Stop switching windows to mark work as finished. `update_task` handles the status transition so you stay in the flow state.

Link code changes to specific GitScrum Tasks

Associate your current branch work by using `get_task_by_code` to verify requirements. This ensures the code generated by your agent aligns perfectly with the defined scope. Use `assign_member` to hand off tasks to teammates without leaving the editor. The tool links the task ID to the correct user account instantly.

Query project data for better coding context

Use `list_tasks` to see what is currently in progress before starting a new file. Your agent uses this data to write code that fits the current sprint goals. Get a full picture of task effort by calling `list_effort_levels` through the agent. It helps you decide which tasks are small enough to tackle right now.

Common questions about GitScrum Tasks MCP in Cursor

Place an `mcp.json` file in your project root or your global config directory. Define the server settings there, and your AI client will pull in the tools for use in Agent mode.

Absolutely. You can use `my_tasks` to list everything assigned to you. The agent can then help you prioritize these items based on your current coding focus.

It does. Once the server is active, the agent can call tools like `create_task` or `set_task_estimate` autonomously while it writes your code.

Your authentication is handled via an endpoint token stored in your local configuration. The server uses this to securely communicate with the project management backend.

The agent accesses task IDs, status codes, and assignment labels. All project metadata is treated as private and only fetched when you request an action.
