ClickUp task and project management tools for AI-driven agentic workflows.
Data last scanned today · Reviewed yesterday
Overview
This MCP server provides an interface to interact with ClickUp objects such as tasks, sprints, documents, and comments. It allows AI models to perform management actions within ClickUp workspaces through natural language processing.
Our verdict
This server receives a high-risk security score of 20/100, primarily due to the lack of any authentication mechanism and the absence of a read-only mode, which grants full write access to anyone with the configuration. It is community-maintained rather than official, carries a NOASSERTION license, and is not recommended for environments where sensitive data exposure or unauthorized task manipulation poses a significant operational risk.
- Supports comprehensive management of tasks, sprints, and documents
- Limited supply-chain footprint with 12 direct dependencies
- Maintains active repository status with recent commits
- High security risk due to missing authentication methods
- Lacks a read-only mode for safe data exploration
- Non-standard licensing labeled as NOASSERTION
Setup

"mcpServers": {
"clickup-mcp-server": {
"args": [
"-y",

"command": "npx"
}
}
}Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows), then restart Claude Desktop. Some servers require API keys or tokens as environment variables — check the project's README and add an "env" object if needed.
- No read-only mode — running this grants full read/write access.
- No built-in authentication — anyone with access to this config can invoke every tool it exposes.
