How the connection works

AikenDewit hosts the server, so there’s nothing to run on your computer. Your AI app connects over the web, and you sign in on AikenDewit’s own consent page using OAuth. You never paste a password or API key into the AI app.

You need an AikenDewit account to connect. It’s free during early access.

Tools that read your tasks

Every connected app can use these. They read your list and calendar and change nothing.

  • list_projects: your projects. Home is your main list.
  • list_tasks: tasks in a project, soonest due first, filtered by status, text or due date.
  • get_task: one task with its full notes and subtasks.
  • get_plan: the task in progress, your Next tasks queue and today’s Top 3.
  • get_calendar: AikenDewit’s calendar for 1 to 31 days: work blocks, blocked time and tasks due at a set time.

Tools that change your tasks

These work only after you turn on editing for that app in Settings → Data → Connected apps. Editing is off until you switch it on, and you choose it separately for each app.

  • create_tasks: add 1 to 25 tasks at once, with subtasks one level deep.
  • update_task: change a task’s details.
  • complete_task: mark a task done, or reopen it.
  • delete_task: delete a task and its subtasks.
  • set_up_next: set the order of your Next tasks queue.
  • set_top_three: set today’s Top 3, up to three tasks.
  • set_now: start a task, or pause the one that’s running.
  • schedule_tasks: put tasks on your calendar as work blocks.
  • unschedule_task: take a task’s upcoming work block off the calendar.
  • undo_action: reverse a change the app made, unless the task has changed since.

Scheduling on your calendar

A work block lasts from 15 minutes to 12 hours within one day, and uses the task’s time estimate if you don’t give an end time. The app can schedule up to 12 blocks at once. Blocks can’t overlap another block or blocked time, or start in the past. Scheduling never changes a due date.

Google and Apple Calendar events aren’t part of AikenDewit’s calendar. If your AI app reads those through its own connection, it can plan around them, and those events don’t pass through AikenDewit.

You stay in control

Settings → Data → Connected apps lists every app you’ve approved, with its editing switch. Disconnect one and it loses access from its next request.

A connected app sends what it reads from AikenDewit to its own AI service, under that company’s terms. Only connect apps you trust with your task list.

Questions about the MCP server

Which task manager has an MCP server for Claude?
AikenDewit has a hosted MCP server at https://www.aikendewit.com/api/mcp. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors, choose Add custom connector and paste that address, then sign in to AikenDewit.
Does it work with ChatGPT?
Yes. Add it as a custom MCP server from Plugins in ChatGPT and choose OAuth. Your ChatGPT account and workspace settings decide whether custom servers are available.
Do I need to run the MCP server myself?
No. AikenDewit hosts it. You add the address to your AI app and sign in.
Can the AI app change or delete my tasks?
Only if you allow it. A new connection can read but not change anything. Turn on editing for that app in Settings → Data → Connected apps to let it add, change, complete, delete or schedule tasks.
What tools does the AikenDewit MCP server provide?
Five tools that read (list_projects, list_tasks, get_task, get_plan, get_calendar) and ten that make changes once editing is on (create_tasks, update_task, complete_task, delete_task, set_up_next, set_top_three, set_now, schedule_tasks, unschedule_task, undo_action).
