Need to see what’s on the plate? The `list_tasks` tool pulls every task from Sunsama. You can also narrow that down by date using this same command. This means you don't have to jump into the web app just to check your schedule or filter for a specific week.

Update and create tasks with the MCP Server.

Don’t want to manually update a due date? Use `update_task` directly through your AI client. You can also kick things off by calling `create_task`, which lets you set both the text and an optional planned date. It's a quick way to move tasks along without leaving your chat window, making context switching painless.

Understand your work environment with Sunsama.

The system needs to know what you're working on. Use `list_channels` and `list_contexts` to get a map of all available areas in Sunsama. Knowing the channels (like 'Work' or 'Personal') helps your AI client pinpoint exactly where it should look for data.
