Connect AI tools to Tabple

Issue a personal connection token so external tools can use your Tabple data safely.

about 6 min Updated October 13, 2026

Issuing a connection token

1

Settings → Integrations → MCP

On the MCP card in Integrations under your profile avatar > Settings, enter a token name and choose Issue. You can have up to 5 tokens, each valid for 365 days. The token is shown only once, when it is issued, and cannot be viewed again afterward.

NOTEA personal access token only works for MCP connections. Unlike a sign-in session, it can't be used for things like billing or account settings.
CAUTIONA token is a credential of the same grade as your password. Store it safely and keep it from leaking.
2

Read-only tokens

If you only need to read, turn on 'Issue as a read-only token' when you issue it. The 10 tools that create, change, or delete are blocked, so the AI can only read your data. A token works only within the permissions of the person who made it, so it can't change anything in a project where you only have view access.

3

Revoking a token

Use Revoke on the token card to invalidate it immediately. After revoking, no request with that token passes.

Claude Desktop / Cursor setup

1

Edit claude_desktop_config.json

Add the Tabple MCP server to the Claude Desktop config file. Path on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

claude_desktop_config.jsonjson
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tabple": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://tabple.com/api/mcp", "--header", "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer YOUR_PAT_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}
2

Restart Claude

Restart Claude Desktop completely and the 'tabple' server appears in the tool list. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI use different formats, so pick your tool under Client config on the MCP card and copy the setup for it.

NOTEThe Tabple MCP server accepts the latest MCP specification (2026-07-28) and the earlier ones (2024-10-07 to 2025-11-25) at the same address. You don't need to choose a specification for your client.

The 20 available tools

  • list_projects — your project list
  • list_columns — the board columns of a project (find the IDs used to create and move tasks)
  • get_tasks / create_task / update_task — read, create, and update tasks
  • list_pages / get_page — the wiki page tree and page bodies
  • get_wiki_block_guide — reference for wiki block formats
  • create_page / update_page / delete_page — create, update, and delete wiki pages (children included)
  • get_project_stats — project stats (task counts, progress)
  • search — search tasks, wiki pages, and feature specs in the projects you can access
  • get_prd / update_prd — read and partially update the PRD (only the fields you supply change)
  • list_features / create_feature / update_feature / delete_feature — feature spec CRUD (level 1-3 hierarchy)
  • link_feature_task — link or unlink a feature spec item and a task (action=link|unlink)

Limits

1

Plans that include MCP

MCP is available on the Storage 100GB (Pro) plan and the Lifetime license. It does not use Tabple's AI calls, so no AI add-on is needed. Connection requests from the Free and Storage 20GB (Starter) plans are refused.

2

Call limits

30 per minute / 300 per hour / 5,000 per day. That leaves room for agents that chain several tools.

3

When you go over

You get a 429 response with a Retry-After header. AI agents back off automatically.

NOTEThe call limits are the same on every plan that includes MCP.
