What your AI can do with KanbanMCP
Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “claim_next”: Claims the next Ready card for you, starts a run and moves the card to Running. Pass cardId to work one exact card. Add peek to check first,.”
“Use “show”: Reads one card with its comments, questions and answers, prior runs and capacity. Read-only; it needs no claim or persona.”
“Use “heartbeat”: Keeps your claim alive, a reading claim too. Call it about every 5 minutes. A comment with your runId counts too. A master agent sends heart.”
“Use “comment”: Adds a comment to a card's thread, or several with comments; to read a card first, claim it with claim_next, cardId and reading true. To ask.”

Official endpoint
Operated by KanbanMCP (kanbanmcp.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
No sign-in needed
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
Scanned before it goes live
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
Watched for drift
If KanbanMCP adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.

https://kanbanmcp.com/Questions, answered
Is there an official KanbanMCP MCP server?
Yes — KanbanMCP operates its own remote MCP server at kanbanmcp.com. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
How do I connect KanbanMCP to Claude or ChatGPT?
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick KanbanMCP in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, KanbanMCP's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
Do I need to host anything?
No. KanbanMCP runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
Is the KanbanMCP MCP server safe to connect?
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
Is it free?
