How to Use the Workast MCP in Cline

Q: How do I get project details using Workast and Cline?

You call getspace with the ID. Cline pulls that data, allowing you to write code against the full space object—including billing info or team links.

Q: How do I list users for a service using Workast and Cline?

Cline runs listusers and outputs the resulting JSON array. You can then pipe that output directly into another script or component file for immediate use in your code.

Q: Is there a way to update task status using Workast and Cline?

Yes. The agent executes updatetask within the context of a project, allowing you to write a function that modifies data reliably across multiple files in your repository.

Perplexity

Code-Driven Task Creation

You can write components that pull task data directly from Workast using `get_task`. Cline handles fetching the raw details needed for the component's state. It writes the necessary code structure and populates it with the retrieved project metadata. It even stages commits for you, so when your dashboard is ready, all the changes are grouped up in Git—no messy manual staging required.

Team Data Schema Generation

Need to map out how team roles affect component logic? Cline uses `get_team_info` to fetch the schema. It then generates a mock data file based on that structure, so you can test your code against real-world constraints. This process writes both the TypeScript definition and accompanying unit tests, ensuring that when you build it out, it'll work correctly across different team sizes.

Full Project Metadata Retrieval

Cline uses `list_tasks` to iterate over tasks within a specific workspace. It builds a JavaScript function that accepts any given space ID and returns an array of task objects, ready for consumption in your service layer. This is critical when you're building a utility package: the code handles the looping and data transformation so you just plug it into your build script.
