rtm-mcp

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Remember The Milk task management. It runs over stdio so it can be embedded in tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, or the MCP Inspector.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+ (the MCP SDK, RTM client, and native fetch all require modern Node features)
  • npm 8+

Environment Variables

Create a .env with the Remember The Milk credentials the MCP tools should use:

RTM_API_KEY="YOUR_RTM_API_KEY"
RTM_SHARED_SECRET="YOUR_RTM_SHARED_SECRET"
RTM_AUTH_TOKEN="YOUR_RTM_AUTH_TOKEN"

The server loads .env automatically via dotenv as soon as it starts, so any process launched from this repo (MCP Inspector, npm run dev, etc.) gains the credentials with no extra shell setup.

Setup

npm install

Development

npm run dev

Runs the server with ts-node so edits in src/ take effect immediately.

Build & Run

npm run build
npm start

build compiles TypeScript (and the RTM client JS helper) to dist/, and start launches the compiled server over stdio.
