Key Capabilities
Real-time task tracking with Vercel AI SDK
Connect your frontend directly to your time tracking data to show work progress as it happens. Using `check_timeghost_status` ensures your connection is active before you start pulling live updates into your UI. Your users see the results instantly because the Vercel AI SDK streams MCP tool outputs straight to the browser. This eliminates the need for clunky loading states when fetching data via `get_timeghost_entry` or `list_timeghost_entries`.
Manage project data in your web components
Display active project lists or specific task details by calling `list_timeghost_projects` directly from your server-side code. This gives you full control over how you render project metadata in your dashboard. Inject `get_timeghost_project` or `get_timeghost_task` results into your components to build custom views. You get the raw data you need to display active billing codes or task descriptions without navigating away from your application.
Organize workspaces through your app logic
Query your available workspaces using `list_timeghost_workspaces` to dynamically switch between different organizational buckets. This lets you build multi-tenant tools that respect user-defined boundaries. Filter team output by using `list_timeghost_members` to see exactly who is logging time against specific initiatives. You keep your app logic clean by handling all authorization and data fetching inside your existing TypeScript workflow.
