Short answer

How can I use my AI to set up project workflows?

You tell your AI what kind of project you're starting, and it uses BasicOps to build the project and its necessary sections. This moves you from a blank screen to an organized workspace. You'll get a structured setup ready for manual refinement.

Project outcomes

Where your work lands.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of structural setup.

STRUCTURE

New project shells

The AI creates the project container based on your description. You get a clean starting point in your workspace.

PHASES

Organized sections

The AI maps out the operational phases or stages. Each phase is set up as a distinct section within the project.

REVIEW

Human oversight

The AI stops once the structure is built. You step in to review the sections and add specific tasks or details.

READY

Active workflows

Once you approve the layout, the project is ready for your team. The foundation is already laid out for you.

The workflow

What your AI does when <the thing arrives>.

The AI acts as a structural architect for your operations.

  1. Define the project

    Your AI interprets your natural language description to determine the project's scope and name.

    create_project

  2. Map out phases

    The AI decides which operational sections are needed to complete the work you described.

    list_project_sections

  3. Build the structure

    The AI executes the creation of the project and its internal organization.

    create_project

  4. Verify the layout

    The AI checks the newly created sections to ensure they match your original request.

    list_project_sections

FAQ

How the setup behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI add specific tasks to the sections?

    No. The AI only creates the project and its sections. You must add individual tasks yourself.

  • 02

    Will the AI delete existing projects?

    No. This MCP only has tools to create projects and list sections. It cannot delete anything.

  • 03

    Does the AI decide the project name?

    It can, but it's better if you provide a specific name in your prompt to ensure accuracy.

  • 04

    Can I change the section names after they are created?

    Yes. The AI handles the initial setup, but you retain full control over the project once it exists.

  • 05

    Can the AI move tasks between sections?

    No. The current tools are limited to project creation and section listing.
