Installation

Set up this MCP server in your favorite AI agent — copy a ready-made configuration below.

Any MCP-compatible agent

Most agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and more) read a standard mcpServers configuration.

Open your agent's MCP configuration file.
Merge the snippet below into it.
Restart the agent — the "Asana" tools will be available.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "asana": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add the server with a single CLI command.

claude mcp add asana -- npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp

Claude Desktop

Add the server to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "asana": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Description

Asana's official Model Context Protocol server (the V2 server) lets an agent read and act on your Asana workspace through natural language. It can create and update tasks, move work between projects and sections, add comments and attachments, search across projects and portfolios, pull goal and status data, and analyze how work is distributed across a team.

It is a remote, streamable-HTTP server authenticated over OAuth, so there is no local process to run and no API key sitting in a config file — permissions follow the Asana account that authorizes the connection, and an agent can only see what that user can see.

Asana lists it as a verified MCP integration for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and more than 20 other clients. Connecting requires registering an app in the Asana developer console to obtain a client ID and secret, after which a browser flow completes the link.
