MCP support
Exposes Maintainly account, task, assignment, and work-request operations to MCP clients. Clients connect to the hosted endpoint; write operations can assign tasks, add comments, and create work requests.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Details
From the project READMEMaintainly MCP by usefulapi
Use your Maintainly account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read maintenance tasks and work requests, assign tasks, post comments, and report new problems. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.
Live endpoint: https://maintainly.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://maintainly.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http maintainly https://maintainly.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"maintainly": {
"url": "https://maintainly.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Maintainly credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/maintainly/
On first connect you provide a Maintainly personal access token (Settings → API tokens in Maintainly) and, only if the token reaches more than one organisation, the organisation key (for example acme). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.

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.
