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 trello -- uvx trello-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trello": {
      "args": [
        "trello-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.trello]
command = "uvx"
args = ["trello-mcp"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trello": {
      "args": [
        "trello-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trello": {
      "args": [
        "trello-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: TRELLO_API_KEY (API key from Trello Power-Up admin (https://trello.com/power-ups/admin)), TRELLO_TOKEN (User token generated for your Trello API key). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Trello MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Trello MCP Server?
Trello 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 pypi package trello-mcp was installed 83 times last week.
How do I connect Trello 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 trello-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Trello MCP Server?
The pypi package trello-mcp was installed 83 times in the last week. Week over week that is -36%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Trello MCP Server open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python and 2 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
