# Worktile MCP > Worktile connects your AI agent directly to its entire project management suite. Instead of navigating menus, you talk to Worktile to list projects, track tasks, update statuses, send team messages, and check organizational details—all in natural conversation. ## Overview - **Category:** productivity - **Price:** Free - **Tags:** task-tracking, team-collaboration, project-planning, workflow-automation, task-management, team-communication ## Description Managing a complex team workflow shouldn't require jumping between tabs and filling out forms. This MCP connects your AI agent straight into Worktile, turning project tracking, task assignment, and team communication into one continuous conversation. Your agent becomes an instant operations assistant for all things work-related. You can ask it to list all active projects or create a new task with full details, like the assignee and description, without ever opening the Worktile web app. It handles everything from updating statuses to sending messages in specific team channels. Because this connection is housed within the Vinkius catalog, you connect once using your preferred client (like Claude or Cursor) and instantly get access to all these core functions. You manage the entire lifecycle of a project—from initial planning to final communication—all through plain language prompts. ## Tools ### create_task Generates a brand new task item within your Worktile project. ### get_project Retrieves specific details for one of your defined projects. ### get_team_info Pulls general information about your entire organization and team structure. ### list_channels Provides a list of all current message channels available for updates. ### list_members Retrieves the names and details of every person in your organization. ### list_projects Lists all active agile projects you have set up in Worktile. ### list_task_states Shows the exact possible statuses a task can hold within a specific project's workflow. ### list_tasks Lists all current tasks associated with an identified project. ### send_message Sends text updates or announcements to a specific team message channel. ### update_task Changes the status, assignee, or details of an already existing task item. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` List all my active projects on Worktile. ``` **Response:** ``` I've retrieved your Worktile projects.

They ask their agent, 'Update task Alpha in New Product Launch status and notify everyone.' The agent uses `update_task` and then triggers a message via `send_message`, ensuring the change is tracked and visible immediately. ### The Status Check A Team Lead needs to know which tasks are stalled. They ask their agent, 'List all tasks in Marketing Q3 that aren't assigned.' The agent uses `list_tasks` and filters the results for them, saving a deep dive into the Worktile interface. ### Onboarding New Staff An Operations Manager needs to know who is on the new sales team. They simply ask their agent, 'Show me all members in the Sales department.' The agent uses `list_members` and provides a clean roster. ### The Workflow Question A Project Manager isn't sure how to move a task from 'Drafting' to 'Review'. They ask their agent, 'What are the possible states for this project?' The agent uses `list_task_states` and explains the full process flow. ## Benefits - Stop clicking through dashboards. You can tell your agent to 'list all my projects' or 'create a task in Marketing Q3,' getting the result instantly without leaving your chat window. - Team communication becomes actionable. Use the `send_message` tool to broadcast an update to General, letting everyone know about the new deadline instead of making multiple announcements. - Get a full picture of your team structure by running `list_members`. You don't have to open the directory; you just ask your agent for who works where. - Task management is streamlined. Instead of remembering which status button to click, simply prompt your agent to 'update task XYZ to completed,' using the `update_task` tool. - Project overview is instant. You can run `list_projects` and then immediately follow up by asking for details on a specific project using `get_project`, keeping the conversation flowing. ## How It Works The bottom line is, you talk to your agent like a person, and the agent talks to Worktile for you, pulling data and performing actions automatically. 1.
