ClickUp MCP Server
The ClickUp MCP server connects AI agents to your ClickUp workspace to manage projects and tasks in natural language. Agents can create, read, update, move, and delete tasks, run deep-search across the workspace, manage spaces, folders, and lists, post comments, track time, and create documents.

OAuth 2.1 with PKCE, and OAuth only — ClickUp's docs are explicit that you cannot authenticate with your own API key or auth token here. Public beta at time of writing, with rate limits that depend on your plan and whether the Everything AI add-on is purchased, so check your quota before pointing a busy agent at it.
