Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 17 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

The endless clicks just to get project status updates.

Every day, you open your browser and navigate to Basecamp. You check the main dashboard for high-level summaries, then jump into Project Alpha's message board to see recent decisions. Next, you click over to the To-Do set to see who owns what, maybe checking a person's profile just to confirm their role before adding a comment on a document.

With this MCP, all that context switching vanishes. You simply tell your agent: 'What are the three highest priority tasks in Project Alpha and who needs to sign off?' Your AI client processes it across multiple internal tools (like list_todos and get_person) and gives you one clean answer—no tabs needed.

Basecamp MCP: Instant project control.

You don't have to manually go through the settings or use the web UI just to adjust a detail. You can update an entire project (update_project) and simultaneously create a follow-up task for someone else using create_todo, all in one conversation.

The difference is that you talk to your workspace instead of navigating it. It's faster, cleaner, and keeps your focus exactly where it needs to be.

What your AI can actually do with this

You can take complete control of your team's workflow using this MCP. Instead of navigating multiple dashboards or digging through old message threads, you just talk to your agent. You tell it to list all active projects and get the details for a specific one; it handles the retrieval. Need an update? Ask your agent to read messages from a project board or even add comments directly to a recorded document.

If someone misses a step, you can ask it to create new tasks, assign them to team members, and set due dates automatically. This MCP lets you monitor who's available on the team by listing people and checking their roles. It keeps all that critical project data—tasks, messages, schedules, files—accessible through one chat interface.

When you connect this MCP via Vinkius, your agent acts as a single pane of glass for everything happening in Basecamp.

Questions you might have

How do I list projects using the Basecamp MCP? +

You use the list_projects tool to see all projects. This function lets you filter by status, so you can quickly separate active work from archived or trashed items.

Can I assign tasks with the Basecamp MCP? +

Yes, you use create_todo. This tool requires a to-do list ID and allows you to set an assignee and due date when generating a new task.

What if a task is done but needs rework using Basecamp MCP? +

You can't just delete it. To reopen a completed item, you must use the uncomplete_todo tool which marks the task as pending again for action.

How do I check who works on my project with Basecamp MCP? +

Use the list_project_people tool. This is better than listing all people because it filters the roster down to only those assigned to that specific project, showing their roles.

Does the Basecamp MCP let me add comments anywhere? +

Yes, you can use create_comment to add feedback or status updates. This works on almost any recording, like a message board post or a document.
