Perplexity

Manage your tasks inside Claude Desktop

Keep your project structure organized by using `create_new_task` and `update_existing_task` right from your chat window. You provide the name and area ID, and the server handles the rest through the Lunatask API. Since this MCP Server operates locally, you maintain control over your data flow while interacting with your task lists. It keeps your productivity loop tight by allowing you to modify your schedule without switching context.

Track your habits and journal entries

Log your daily progress using `track_habit_completion` whenever you finish a goal. It updates your records instantly, letting you stay on top of your routines while you chat with your agent. If you need to capture thoughts, `create_journal_entry` lets you push text directly to your secure storage. You can check your history later using `list_notes_metadata` to see what you recorded.

Browse metadata with the Lunatask MCP Server

Use `list_tasks_metadata` to get a bird's eye view of your current task load. Because of the encryption, you receive the structural details you need to organize your day while the raw content remains protected. When you need specifics on a single item, call `get_task_metadata` to retrieve the relevant identifiers. This approach gives you the necessary context to plan your work while respecting the zero-knowledge architecture of the underlying service.
