Task management API for AI agents. Create, delegate, and track tasks via MCP.
Config is the same across clients — only the file and path differ.

MCP server for Delega — the task handoff layer for AI agents.
Connect any MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.) to Delega and manage tasks, projects, and agents through natural language.
npm install -g @delega-dev/mcp
Add to your MCP client config (e.g. Claude Code claude_code_config.json):

| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
DELEGA_API_URL | https://api.delega.dev | Delega API endpoint. Defaults to the hosted API; custom /api-style endpoints (e.g. http://localhost:18890) are an advanced override. |
DELEGA_AGENT_KEY | (none) | Agent API key for authenticated requests. Preferred for MCP configs; if both key env vars are set, this one wins. |
DELEGA_API_KEY | (none) | Fallback alias accepted so the MCP, CLI, and SDK can share one env var when needed. |
DELEGA_REVEAL_AGENT_KEYS | 0 | ⚠️ Development only. Set to 1 to print full API keys in tool output. Never enable in production: a prompt-injected agent could exfiltrate keys from register_agent or list_agents responses. |
Use https://api.delega.dev as the URL.
DELEGA_API_URL values must use https://.DELEGA_REVEAL_AGENT_KEYS=1 in production. This flag exists for initial setup only. In production, a prompt-injected agent could exfiltrate keys from register_agent or list_agents tool output. Keys are returned once at creation time; register a replacement agent if you need a new key.| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
list_tasks | List tasks, filter by project, label, due date, completion |
get_task | Get full task details including subtasks and task links |
link_task | Attach a branch, commit, PR, or URL link to a task |
list_task_links | List branch, commit, PR, and URL links attached to a task |
create_task | Create a new task |
list_recurrences | List recurring task templates |
create_recurring_task | Create a recurring task template (daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly) |
update_recurrence | Update a recurring task template, including pausing/resuming with active |
delete_recurrence | Delete a recurring task template; existing spawned task instances remain |
update_task | Update task fields (incl. assigned_to_agent_id) |
assign_task | Assign a task to an agent (or pass null to unassign) |
delegate_task | Delegate a task: create a child task linked to a parent (parent status flips to delegated). Use this for multi-agent handoffs — assign_task does not create a delegation chain. |
get_task_chain | Return the full delegation chain for a task (root + descendants, sorted by depth) |
update_task_context | Merge keys into a task's persistent context blob (deep merge, not replace), recording provenance source |
get_task_context | Read a task's persistent context blob, optionally with per-key provenance |
get_context_history | Read the append-only provenance ledger for a task's context |
find_duplicate_tasks | Check whether proposed task content is similar to existing open tasks (TF-IDF + cosine similarity). Call before create_task to avoid redundant work. |
get_usage | Return quota + rate-limit info. Hosted API only (api.delega.dev); custom endpoints receive a clear error. |
claim_task | Claim the next available task from the queue for exclusive processing (work-queue semantics). Lea |
