Before you start

• An Asana account with access to the workspace you want to query
• An MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP transport and OAuth (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code)
• No API token to manage — authentication is handled via OAuth in the browser at connect time
• On Enterprise+/Legacy Enterprise plans, the MCP client must not be blocked in your workspace's app-management settings

When to use it

• Use it when you want to create or update Asana tasks and projects from natural-language prompts inside Claude, ChatGPT, or your IDE
• Use it when you need to search across tasks by assignee, due date, status, tag, or custom field without leaving your AI client
• Use it when you want an AI-generated status overview or summary of a project for a standup or stakeholder update
• Use it when you're rolling work up across portfolios and want quick read access to portfolio items and project state
• Use it when you want a zero-install, OAuth-secured Asana integration instead of running a local server
