Avoid if

The connected data or account cannot be safely exposed to the selected AI client
You cannot verify least-privilege access and review write-capable tool calls

Trade-offs

First-party provenance and a clear task improve confidence, but do not replace an independent permissions and usability review.
Client transport compatibility does not prove that authentication, scopes, failure handling, and every tool behave safely.

Evidence-backed setup

Install & Agents

Choose your MCP client. A client connects to the MCP server; the language model is selected inside that client. Only stored, source-backed configurations are shown.

Claude Code

Streamable HTTP

MCP100 logic checked

claude mcp add --transport http asana "https://mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp"

The publisher connection details were combined with this client's official MCP transport configuration; installation was not executed by MCP100.

Verify safely: Reconnect Claude Code, complete the publisher OAuth or authentication flow if prompted, confirm asana tools are listed, and perform one read-only test.

Uninstall and revoke

Remove asana from Claude Code, clear its stored MCP OAuth credentials, and revoke the publisher authorization if it is no longer needed.

Evidence & methodology

Publisher-documented setup is not the same as MCP100 execution testing. “MCP100 logic checked” means the stored configuration shape was reviewed, not that third-party MCP software was run.

Tools27 toolsView tools

Tasks & Collaboration12 tools
Find and work with Asana tasks while keeping comments and attachments close at hand. The search_objects tool also provides workspace-wide discovery across projects, portfolios, goals, users, teams, tags, custom fields, agents, and other supported object types.
Projects & Status6 tools
Work with projects as the main planning container for team execution. Review project state, create projects, publish status updates, and preview a proposed new project plan before creating it.
Portfolios3 tools
Track higher-level collections of work. Inspect portfolios and their items, which can include projects and goals, to understand broader initiatives and progress.
People & Teams4 tools
Resolve the people and teams behind Asana work. Inspect the current user, other users, and team membership when tasks or projects need organizational context.
Agents & Workspace Intelligence2 tools
Discover Asana agents available in the workspace and inspect their configuration or identity. This supports workflows that combine normal project data with agent-assisted capabilities.

Estimated token footprint of the MCP tool schemas exposed to the agent.

Approx. estimate

Whole-profile rough estimate only. Do not synthesize per-tool token values from this heuristic.

Reviewed access

Access & risk

Review the exact access boundary before connecting this MCP to accounts, credentials, or sensitive data.

Authentication: Use Asana's documented MCP-token and connected-user authorization path. The token is specific to the MCP server, while available actions remain bounded by the connected user's existing Asana permissions; OAuth-scope and revocation details should not be inferred beyond the reviewed publisher documentation.
Permissions: The MCP token is specific to Asana's MCP server, but it does not provide per-tool OAuth scopes. Available MCP tools operate within the connected user's existing Asana permissions; any workspace restriction belongs to the documented app or distribution configuration rather than being intrinsic to every issued MCP token.
Data handling: Publisher-accessible account or application data may be returned to the MCP client and its selected model. Retention and subprocess behavior require candidate-specific review.
Cost: No MCP100 cost conclusion is published yet. The publisher's account plan, API usage, infrastructure, or per-action charges may apply.
Risk and cautions: Use a test workspace or non-production account, least privilege, read-only controls where available, explicit approval for mutations, and credential revocation after evaluation.

MCP Server

Asana offers a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, accessible via app integration, which allows AI assistants and other applications to access the Asana Work Graph from beyond the Asana platform. This server provides a way to interact with your Asana workspace through various AI platforms and tools that support MCP.

FAQ

What can Asana MCP do?

Read and manage Asana workspaces, tasks, projects, portfolios, and reports.

Can Asana MCP create or update tasks and projects?

Yes. The reviewed surface includes creating and updating tasks, adding comments, creating projects, and publishing project status updates, alongside read and search tools.

Does Asana MCP work with Codex?

Yes. MCP100 reviewed an evidence-backed setup for Codex, but has not independently verified it with a live runtime test.

How does Asana MCP connect to a workspace?

Use Asana's documented MCP-token and connected-user authorization path. The token is specific to the MCP server, while available actions remain bounded by the connected user's existing Asana permissions; OAuth-scope and revocation details should not be inferred beyond the reviewed publisher documentation.

What can an AI agent change in Asana through MCP?

Use a test workspace or non-production account, least privilege, read-only controls where available, explicit approval for mutations, and credential revocation after evaluation.

Is this an official MCP?

Asana is listed as First-party MCP in MCP100’s current evidence.
