Asana MCP Server — Official Remote Server for Enterprise Project Management
At a glance: Hosted at mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp — OAuth 2.0, Streamable HTTP, ~44 tools, 20 featured client integrations. V2 launched Feb 2026, V1 shutdown May 11. The most tool-rich productivity MCP server we've reviewed. Rating: 4/5.
What It Does
Task management (8 tools) — Create, update, delete, search tasks. Advanced search across text, dates, status, assignee, projects, portfolios, sections, tags, custom fields.
Projects and portfolios (12 tools) — Create projects, list sections, track progress, manage portfolios, color-coded health updates.
Goals and time management (7 tools) — OKRs, goal hierarchies, progress metrics. No other productivity MCP server offers goal tracking.
Dependencies (4 tools) — Prerequisites, blocking relationships, follower management.
Team management (5+ tools) — Workspaces, teams, users, resource allocations.
Collaboration (5 tools) — Comments, activity history, attachments.
What Sets It Apart
- Most complete PM MCP server — 44 tools vs Todoist (37+), Linear (23+)
- Hosted zero-install with OAuth 2.0
- 20 client integrations — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Figma, and more
- Permission inheritance — actions use authenticated user's permissions
What's New (March 2026)
Asana AI Teammates launched March 17 — 21 pre-built AI agents. Claude-to-Asana integration ships. $6M ARR from AI products.
What's Missing
V2 still lacks comments/stories (V1 shuts down May 11). Single-workspace sessions (regression from V1). No self-hosted option.
Community Alternative
roychri/mcp-server-asana (131 stars, MIT) — 40+ tools, PAT auth, has comments that official V2 still lacks.
Rating: 4/5 — Most tool-rich productivity MCP server with proper hosted architecture. Incomplete V2 transition and single-workspace limitation keep it from 4.5.
