| Client coverage details | Not documented | Claude Code✓ Streamable HTTP Claude Desktop✓ Streamable HTTP Codex✓ Streamable HTTP VS Code✓ Streamable HTTP Cursor✓ Streamable HTTP OpenCode✓ Streamable HTTP |
| Client coverage note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | OAuth to `https://ai.todoist.net/mcp`. Todoist hands the assistant an access token rather than the user's password; the token can be reviewed or revoked under Todoist Settings > Integrations. | Follow only the publisher source; credential storage, scopes, and revocation remain under review. |
| Cost | Todoist explicitly states its MCP is free to use with any Todoist account. Todoist itself also offers Free, Pro, and Business plans. | Publisher plans, API usage, infrastructure, or per-action charges may apply; MCP100 has not published a cost conclusion. |
| Permissions | Todoist's hosted MCP requests the `data:read_write` OAuth scope. This allows the connected assistant to read and change Todoist data, including creating tasks/projects, editing existing data, and completing tasks. | Exact permissions and read/write boundaries have not completed MCP100 review. |
| Data handling | Not documented in the reviewed sources. The reviewed Todoist MCP/developer documentation does not state an MCP-specific retention or model-training policy. | Candidate-specific retention, subprocess, telemetry, and model-data behavior remain review items. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | The MCP can change task/project state, not just read it. Incorrect agent actions can create, edit, complete, move, or delete productivity data depending on the available tools. | Use a test account, least privilege, read-only controls where available, and explicit approval for mutations. |
