About Lunatask MCP Server
Connect your Lunatask account to any AI agent to streamline your privacy-focused productivity. This MCP server enables your agent to create, update, and manage tasks, track habits, and log journal entries directly from natural language interfaces.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code. it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Lunatask tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 8 tools through Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Task Creation — Add new tasks to specific Areas of Life with statuses like 'next' or 'later'
- Habit Tracking — Log completions for your daily habits to stay consistent with your goals
- Encrypted Journaling — Create secure, end-to-end encrypted journal entries directly from your conversation
- Metadata Inspection — List all tasks and notes to monitor your productivity structure and statuses
- Workflow Management — Update task priorities and move them through your personal workflow stages
Important Note on Privacy
Lunatask uses end-to-end encryption. While this API allows creating and updating content, it cannot read back the names or notes of your tasks once they are stored. The agent will only see technical metadata (IDs, dates, statuses).
