asanamcp

MCP server for the Asana API.

Quick Start

Get an Asana Personal Access Token at https://app.asana.com/0/my-apps
Install:

# Homebrew
brew install adlio/tap/asanamcp

# From crates.io
cargo install asanamcp

# From GitHub
cargo install --git https://github.com/adlio/asanamcp

Add to Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "asana": {
      "command": "asanamcp",
      "env": {
        "ASANA_TOKEN": "your-personal-access-token",
        "ASANA_DEFAULT_WORKSPACE": "your-workspace-gid"
      }
    }
  }
}

The ASANA_DEFAULT_WORKSPACE is optional but recommended if you work primarily in one workspace. When set, workspace-based operations (search, list projects, list users, etc.) will use this default, reducing the need to specify workspace GID in every request.

Testing the Server

# Dump tool schemas (useful for debugging)
asanamcp --schema

# Dump a specific tool's schema
asanamcp --schema get

# Launch the MCP Inspector (interactive web UI)
make inspect
