Asana MCP server

This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to your Asana account. Once it is set up, you can ask questions about your tasks and projects in plain words, and the AI can also make changes for you. It is handy if you live in Asana all day and want to skip a lot of clicking.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something about Asana, like how many tasks are left in a project. The AI sends that request to this helper program. The helper talks to Asana using your access token and fetches the answer. Then the AI shows you the result in the chat, in normal sentences or a short list. If you ask it to create or update something, the helper makes that change in Asana and tells you it is done.

Try asking your AI

• “How many unfinished asana tasks do we have in our Sprint 30 project?”
• “Show me all asana tasks assigned to me that are due this week.”
• “Create an asana task called Prepare slides in the Marketing project, due Friday.”
• “Add a comment to that asana task saying the client approved the design.”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat, usually as a short summary or a list of tasks with their names, due dates and assignees. When it creates or updates something, it tells you what it changed. For example, it might say it created a task and give you the task ID. You do not need to read any technical output, just the plain answer.
