Does this work with self-hosted Plane instances?

Yes. You can provide your own self-hosted API URL during setup to connect to your private instance.

Which AI clients can use this MCP?

Any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code can use this connector.

What do I need to get started?

You will need a Plane Personal API Key to authenticate your agent with your workspace.

Can the AI create new issues?

This specific MCP focuses on retrieving and reading data like projects, cycles, modules, and work items.

Is my data hosted by Vinkius?

Vinkius hosts the MCP and manages the connection, allowing you to connect your client with one click.

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.

Connect Plane to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Run your sprints and track issues without opening a browser.

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Real work

What teams actually run

Context-Aware Coding

An engineer asks the agent to check the requirements of a specific module before writing code.

Sprint Status Checks

A manager asks the agent to identify which tasks are still open in the current cycle.

Backlog Analysis

A lead uses the agent to scan through labels and modules to organize upcoming work.

Issue Deep Dives

A developer requests the full details of a specific ticket ID to understand a bug's context.

Automate a task

Put Plane to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Plane works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Plane to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 6 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Plane, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Plane. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work Plane owners hand off.

This MCP is built for technical teams who live in their IDEs or chat clients and need real-time project data.

Project Managers
They use the agent to summarize progress and pull pending tasks from current cycles.
02
Lead Engineers
They inspect ticket backlogs and verify module requirements without leaving their code editor.
03
Product Teams
They cross-reference modules and labels to check alignment without using the visual planner.
