Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add asana-mcp-server -- npx -y @jtalk22/asana-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ASANA_PAT (Asana Personal Access Token (create at https://app.asana.com/0/my-apps). Optional when stored via `asana-mcp --setup` (macOS Keychain or ~/.asana-mcp.json).), ASANA_WORKSPACE_GID (Workspace GID. Optional — auto-detected when the token sees exactly one workspace.), ASANA_MCP_TOOLS (Tool surface filter: all | read | write | comma-list of tool names.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Asana MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Asana MCP Server?
Asana MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @jtalk22/asana-mcp was installed 48 times last week.
How do I connect Asana MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @jtalk22/asana-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Asana MCP Server?
The npm package @jtalk22/asana-mcp was installed 48 times in the last week. Week over week that is +52%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Asana MCP Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
