Overview

Task discovery starts with searchTask, which matches names, content, assignees, or IDs without regard to letter case. It supports fuzzy matching and treats multiple terms as alternatives, returning a relevance-ranked outline of matching tasks. An assistant can then use getTaskById to inspect a selected task's status, creation date, assignees, complete discussion thread, and embedded images. For a view of personal assignments, listTodo retrieves open tasks belonging to the current user, subject to a 50-task limit. Browsing ClickUp Lists or Spaces is not supported.

Image retrieval defaults to the 4 most recent images associated with a task, and MAX_IMAGES allows that limit to be configured. Search guidance can also reflect the language indicated by CLICKUP_PRIMARY_LANGUAGE or the LANG fallback. This changes the advice given to the calling assistant about using English alongside the task language; it does not translate search terms itself. The assistant remains responsible for supplying bilingual terms. Connection uses stdio and requires a ClickUp API key plus Team ID, with setup described for Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and Cursor.
