What your AI can do with KanbanThing
Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “create_board”: Create a new KanbanThing board and return its id, shareable URL and password. No sign-up. Every board is password protected: pass `password`.”
“Use “get_board”: Read a board by id: its name, expiry, columns and how many cards each column holds.”
“Use “list_columns”: List the columns on a board, left to right, with their ids.”
“Use “list_cards”: List the cards on a board, optionally only those in one column.”
How secure is the KanbanThing MCP server?
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how KanbanThing holds up.
Official endpoint
Operated by KanbanThing (kanbanthing.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 KanbanThing adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Connected in three steps
Connect your gate
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.

The actual tools KanbanThing exposes

Who runs the KanbanThing MCP server?
The KanbanThing MCP server at a glance
https://www.kanbanthing.com/mcpQuestions, answered
Is there an official KanbanThing MCP server?
Yes — KanbanThing operates its own remote MCP server at www.kanbanthing.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 KanbanThing to Claude or ChatGPT?
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick KanbanThing in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, KanbanThing's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
Do I need to host anything?
No. KanbanThing runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
Is the KanbanThing 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?
Yes — you can get started with gate for free and connect KanbanThing in minutes. No credit card required.
