MCP support
This deprecated package connected MCP clients such as Cursor and Claude to Vaiz using a local process and API token. Vaiz now provides a hosted MCP server at https://api.vaiz.com/mcp with OAuth.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

Details
From the project READMEvaiz-mcp
DEPRECATED. This package is no longer maintained and this repository is archived.
Vaiz now provides a hosted MCP server at
https://api.vaiz.com/mcpwith OAuth. You no longer need a localnpxproxy or aVAIZ_API_TOKEN.Cursor users: install the official Vaiz plugin from the Cursor Marketplace — https://github.com/vaizcom/vaiz-cursor-plugin
Any MCP client: point it at the remote server directly.
{ "mcpServers": { "Vaiz": { "url": "https://api.vaiz.com/mcp" } } }Then authenticate when prompted (in Cursor: Settings → Tools & MCPs → Authenticate).

Cursor Configuration
Create or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vaiz": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["vaiz-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"VAIZ_API_TOKEN": "your-api-key",
"VAIZ_SPACE_ID": "your-space-id"
}
}
}
}
Or after global installation (npm install -g vaiz-mcp):
{
"mcpServers": {
"vaiz": {
"command": "vaiz-mcp@latest",
"env": {
"VAIZ_API_TOKEN": "your-api-key",
"VAIZ_SPACE_ID": "your-space-id"
}
}
}
}
Claude Desktop Configuration
Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vaiz": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["vaiz-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"VAIZ_API_TOKEN": "your-api-key",
"VAIZ_SPACE_ID": "your-space-id"
}
}
}
}
Usage
After configuration, Cursor/Claude will automatically connect to your Vaiz workspace and gain access to:
- 🔍 Search tasks, projects, users
- 📋 Task management (create, edit, comments)
- 📊 View boards and projects
- 👥 Team member information
- 📝 Work with documents and milestones
Debugging
To enable debug output, add the VAIZ_DEBUG variable:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vaiz": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["vaiz-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"VAIZ_API_TOKEN": "your-api-key",
"VAIZ_DEBUG": "true"
}
}
}
}
Debug messages will be output to stderr.
Programmatic Usage
You can also use the library programmatically:
import { createVaizMCPClient } from 'vaiz-mcp';
const client = createVaizMCPClient({
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
spaceId: 'your-space-id',
});
// Initialize connection
const initResult = await client.initialize();
// Get list of tools
const tools = await client.listTools();
// Call a tool
const result = await client.callTool('search', {
query: 'important task',
entityType: 'task'
});

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
