README

@theyahia/kaiten-mcp

📦 Part of WWmcp — Emerging Markets MCP — 114 MCP servers for non-Western APIs (Brazil/MENA/Gulf/SE Asia/Africa/CIS).

MCP server for the Kaiten kanban / project-management API. 63 tools covering spaces, boards, columns, lanes, cards (with rich filters), comments, members, tags, checklists, child cards, external links, blockers, card types, sprints, custom properties, and users.

Part of the Russian API MCP series by @theYahia.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kaiten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@theyahia/kaiten-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "KAITEN_DOMAIN": "your-domain",
        "KAITEN_TOKEN": "your-api-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add kaiten -e KAITEN_DOMAIN=your-domain -e KAITEN_TOKEN=your-token -- npx -y @theyahia/kaiten-mcp

Cursor / Windsurf

{
  "kaiten": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y", "@theyahia/kaiten-mcp"],
    "env": { "KAITEN_DOMAIN": "your-domain", "KAITEN_TOKEN": "your-api-token" }
  }
}

Auth

In Kaiten, go to Profile → API tokens and create a token.
Note your subdomain (e.g. mycompany from mycompany.kaiten.ru).

Variable	Required	Description
`KAITEN_DOMAIN`	Yes*	Subdomain (`mycompany`) or full host (`mycompany.kaiten.io`). A bare subdomain resolves to `.kaiten.ru`.
`KAITEN_TOKEN`	Yes	Bearer token from Profile → API tokens.
`KAITEN_BASE_URL`	No	Full API base for self-hosted / on-premise Kaiten, e.g. `https://kaiten.mycorp.ru/api/latest`. Overrides `KAITEN_DOMAIN`.

* KAITEN_DOMAIN is required unless KAITEN_BASE_URL is set.

The token needs permission for the entities you use: read tools need view rights, and create/update/delete tools need edit rights.

Try this prompt

"Создай задачу в колонке 'In Progress' доски 'Sprint 23', назначь @alex, добавь тег bug"

The agent chains list_spaces → list_boards → list_columns → create_card → list_users → add_card_member → add_card_tag.
