Connect Taskyard to AI

Get your API key

Open Taskyard and go to Settings (gear icon, top-right of the Dashboard).

Your key is in the "API key" section — click the eye icon to reveal it, then the copy icon to copy it.

Choose your integration

Taskyard speaks the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standard that works across most AI tools. Pick yours below.

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json (usually under ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "taskyard": {
      "url": "https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "tr_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Swap in your real key, restart Claude Desktop, then ask: "What tasks are due today?"

ChatGPT (Custom GPT)

Create a Custom GPT and add an Action pointing at the MCP endpoint below, using the schema at /openapi.json.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "taskyard": {
      "url": "https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "tr_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Go to Settings → MCP and add a new server:

Name:    Taskyard
URL:     https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp
Headers: { "x-api-key": "tr_your_api_key_here" }

Gemini

Add Taskyard as a tool in Gemini's extensions or MCP settings, using the same URL and header:

URL:     https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp
Header:  x-api-key: tr_your_api_key_here

Any MCP client

Taskyard exposes a standard MCP endpoint at:

POST https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp

Authenticate with either header:

x-api-key: tr_your_api_key_here

or

Authorization: Bearer tr_your_api_key_here

The endpoint accepts JSON-RPC 2.0 requests and exposes tools for:

• Listing, creating, completing, and deleting tasks
• Managing projects
• Reading stats and metrics
• Setting and managing reminders

Test the connection

Test your MCP endpoint with curl:

curl -X POST https://taskyard.meetingmind.space/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: tr_your_api_key_here" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "method": "tools/list",
    "id": 1
  }'

You should get back a JSON response listing all available tools.

Try some prompts

Once connected, try asking your AI:

• "Show me my pending tasks"
• "Create a task to renew SSL cert in project General"
• "What reminders do I have for tomorrow?"
• "Complete the task 'Buy groceries'"
• "How many projects do I have?"
