Bring Agile
to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Plane to Cline and start using all 6 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Plane MCP Server?
Equip any AI agent with direct access to your Plane workspace. Whether you're using Plane Cloud or self-hosting, your AI assistant can seamlessly retrieve projects, analyze agile cycles, and parse the active issues pipeline without forcing you to click through kanban boards manually.
What you can do
- Projects & Core Entities — Extract isolated project architectures spanning across your Workspace, pulling high-fidelity descriptions and status parameters.
- Agile Cycles (Sprints) — Command the agent to list and structure your active development cycles, evaluating timelines and completion statuses.
- Work Items (Issues) — Perform deep sweeps over tasks and explicit tickets inside boundary states, analyzing what your engineering team is actually building.
- Modules & Taxonomy — Read epics (modules) and static categorization labels dictating your issue pipelines.
How it works
- Install this integration onto your agent layer
- Provide your Plane Personal API Key (and optionally, your self-hosted API URL)
- Start fetching sprints and active cycles immediately from Cursor, Claude, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — instantly retrieve all pending tasks in the current cycle (
list_cycles&list_work_items) and summarize progress dynamically. - Lead Engineers — inspect the ticket backlog without leaving your IDE; write code and verify module requirements consecutively.
- Product Teams — cross-reference structured modules versus labels without dealing with the visual planner interface.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically aggregate all open issues inside our active sprint?
Yes. First, request the active iteration window by calling list_cycles. The agent will isolate today's active cycle bounds. Following that, it will invoke list_work_items directly constrained by that cycle object, outputting an exhaustive summary of untouched or blocking tickets.
How does the agent handle custom workspace slugs or self-hosted URLs?
The system dynamically accepts a PLANE_BASE_URL credential. If you are doing an on-premise installation running inside your homelab or company AWS cloud, you merely inject your private domain (e.g., https://plane.internal.acme.com). The workspace slug is seamlessly accepted as a contextual execution parameter during standard query prompts.
Can I request specific details of a long-term module (epic)?
You can instruct the agent to execute list_modules. It extracts the cross-functional epics spanning your workspace project. Your AI can read these top-level module architectures to contextually understand what the core functionality of the project repository aims to achieve.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
