About Weft
Weft is a hosted Scrumban task board for solo founders and small teams coordinating work with AI agents. Agents claim tasks, report progress, and submit receipts for human review, while questions requiring a person can wait in an Inbox.
Key features
- 01Shared task board for AI and people
- 02Claim tasks with time-limited leases
- 03Report progress and renew claims
- 04Submit completion receipts for review
- 05Manage projects, sprints, and decisions
- 06Route human questions to an Inbox
Use cases
- 01Coordinate tasks across multiple AI clients
- 02Review an agent's artifacts before accepting work
- 03Handle decisions an agent cannot make
- 04Plan sprints and organize project tasks
MCP support
Provides a hosted remote MCP server at `https://letsweft.com/api/mcp` with tools for board, task, sprint, and project operations. It supports OAuth 2.1, with personal access tokens as an alternative for clients without OAuth.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Details
From the project READMEWeft MCP Server
One board for every AI you use: agents claim tasks and finish with proof you accept or return.
Weft is a task board for solo founders and small teams who work with AI. One hosted MCP server means VS Code, Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Copilot CLI, JetBrains, Kiro, Codex, Gemini CLI, Warp, goose, Raycast, Perplexity, Grok, Le Chat and a dozen more all work from the same board — no extra plugins needed. Thirty-three of them have a copy-paste setup guide.
What makes it a board for agents rather than a to-do list with an API: an agent claims a task with a lease, reports progress to keep it, and finishes with a receipt — artifacts you can check, and what it did not do — which you accept or send back from an Inbox, on the web or your phone. When it needs a decision only you can make, the question waits for you instead of being guessed at.
Server
| Endpoint | https://letsweft.com/api/mcp |
| Transport | Streamable HTTP — MCP 2026-07-28, and 2025 revisions for older clients |
| Auth | OAuth 2.1 — Authorization Code + PKCE, dynamic client registration (RFC 7591): a browser window opens to sign in with your Weft account on first use. For clients without OAuth (scripts, CI, some CLIs), a personal access token from Settings → Access tokens, sent as Authorization: Bearer wft_… — see access tokens. |
| Manifest | /.well-known/mcp.json |
| Registry | Published in the official MCP Registry as com.letsweft/weft (domain-verified namespace) |
A free account takes a minute: letsweft.com/sign-up — the free plan includes 50 active tasks and 200 tool calls a month.
Install
Setting this up from inside an agent (Cline, Cursor, a CLI)? Point it at llms-install.md — the same steps, written for a machine.
VS Code — install the
Weft extension
(also on Open VSX, which is where
Cursor, Windsurf and VSCodium look) and the server registers itself. Without an
extension, add to .vscode/mcp.json, or run "MCP: Open User Configuration" to
have it in every workspace:
{ "servers": { "weft": { "type": "http", "url": "https://letsweft.com/api/mcp" } } }
Switch Chat to Agent mode and ask for your board; VS Code opens a browser for OAuth the first time.
GitHub Copilot CLI — run copilot, type /mcp add, choose HTTP, paste the
endpoint, leave headers empty, set tools to *.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http weft https://letsweft.com/api/mcp
Cursor — Add to Cursor, or add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{ "mcpServers": { "weft": { "url": "https://letsweft.com/api/mcp" } } }
Replit — Add to Replit, or Integrations → "MCP Servers for Replit Agent" → "Add MCP server".
ChatGPT — published plugin: Plugins → search "Weft" → Connect.
Codex CLI
codex mcp add weft --url https://letsweft.com/api/mcp
Gemini CLI — official extension:
gemini extensions install https://github.com/AndreiFinogeev/weft-gemini-extension
JetBrains (via Junie) / Kiro / Warp / goose / Raycast / Perplexity / Grok /
Le Chat / Claude Desktop / Lovable / Windsurf / Cline / Zed / anything else — add
https://letsweft.com/api/mcp as a remote MCP server (custom connector) and
complete OAuth. Per-client walkthroughs: letsweft.com/integrations.
Tools (32)
| Category | Tools |
|---|---|
| Search | search, fetch |
| Board | initialize_board, get_board_state, list_columns |
| Tasks | list_tasks, create_task, bulk_create_tasks, update_task, move_task, trash_task, restore_task, archive_done_tasks |
| Doing the work | get_my_work, start_task, report_progress, complete_task |
| Asking the human | request_input, submit_answer |
| Memory of decisions | record_decision, get_context, get_task_history |
| Projects | list_projects, create_project, update_project |
| Sprints | list_sprints, get_active_sprint, create_sprint, start_sprint, complete_sprint, add_task_to_sprint, remove_task_from_sprint |
The four in Doing the work are the ones that make this a board for agents
rather than a to-do list with an API. start_task CLAIMS a task with a lease
and returns a runId and leaseToken; report_progress renews the claim,
because an agent that dies mid-run cannot report anything and silence is the
only signal the board has. complete_task takes a structured receipt —
artifacts a person can check, claims, what was explicitly NOT done — and when
the task carries machine-checkable verification, the server re-runs those
checks itself before the card moves to Done.
request_input is the other half: a question only the person can answer
survives the session it was asked in, waits in their Inbox (web or phone), and
comes back to whichever client asked.
Destructive tools carry MCP safety annotations; deleting is safe —
trash_task keeps tasks recoverable for 30 days. Full reference:
letsweft.com/docs/mcp-tools.
What you can ask
- "Add a high-priority task: fix the flaky CI test."
- "What am I working on right now?"
- "Move the auth refactor to Done."
- "Start a one-week sprint focused on the landing redesign."
- "Organize my board into projects."
Privacy & security
Your board is private: every session is scoped to your account via OAuth, and tokens are issued per client. Tasks created by AI carry creator attribution, so the board always shows who (or what) added each card.

Comments
New to MCP?
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.
