Details

From the project README

TaskForge distribution tap

Public distribution repo for the taskforge CLI + MCP server. It serves two roles:

  • Homebrew tap — Formula/taskforge.rb. Install: brew install azhard/tap/taskforge
  • Release host — GitHub Releases here hold the cross-compiled binaries, the per-platform .mcpb bundles, and SHA256SUMS.

Both are published from the source repo's local release script (scripts/release/publish-cli.sh) — there is no CI in this repo. The formula and release assets are generated on the maintainer's machine and pushed here directly.

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.
