Shortcut MCP Server

Grant your AI agent (like Claude or Cursor) absolute administrative dominion over your Shortcut project management environment. The Shortcut MCP equips your LLM to act as a fully autonomous scrum master and project auditor. Forget clicking through endless boards—now you can interrogate task backlogs, audit iterations, and orchestrate developers exclusively via natural conversational prompts deeply integrated with the REST API.

What you can do

• Deep Story Infiltration — Rip through dense backlogs via search_stories. Need the grit on a specific ticket? Drill down violently with get_story_details directly from your IDE to extract every description and sub-task effortlessly
• Strategic Epic & Sprint Surveillance — Audit high-level roadmaps invoking list_epics and monitor ongoing sprints by extracting list_iterations to forecast roadmap failure or success without opening a single tab
• Team & Workflow Cartography — Interrogate the hierarchy applying list_projects, isolate specific developer IDs using list_members, and trace custom state mappings across the pipeline using list_workflows

How it works

1. Anchor this core interface directly within your native MCP agent framework
2. Safely entrench your SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN matrix inside the workspace to lock down security boundaries
3. Engage your agent pragmatically: "Find all bugs reported this week and tell me what Epic they belong to based on their details!"
