ClickUp MCP server

ClickUp × Claude Code

Use the ClickUp MCP server
in Claude Code

Tasks, docs, and spaces across your ClickUp workspace, available to your AI. This guide connects ClickUp to Claude Code (the terminal agent) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · Note: ClickUp currently restricts third-party sign-ins — API-key path recommended

Setup: ClickUp in Claude Code

Claude Code adds MCP servers via the `claude mcp add` command. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect ClickUp to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. In your terminal: claude mcp add gate https://gateturbo.com/api/mcp --transport http
  3. Approve the sign-in when Claude Code opens it in your browser.
  4. ClickUp's tools now appear in every Claude Code session — with per-tool allow/ask/block rules if you want them.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same ClickUp connection works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool ClickUp exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything Claude Code did with ClickUp — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

ClickUp passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
