Tools reference

The hosted MCP server exposes tools that operate through normal LFG List permissions. A tool can only see and change data available to the user behind the Personal Access Token.

Tool What it does
get_config_status Shows non-secret MCP configuration status.
list_projects Lists projects visible to the token owner.
get_project Gets one project by id, name, or configured default project.
Tool What it does
list_items Lists items in a project, optionally filtered by search, active/complete status kind, trash state, and limit.
create_item Creates a new item in a project.
update_item_status Moves an item to another status by status id.
add_item_comment Adds a comment to an item.
Tool What it does
create_project_label Creates a project label.
update_project_label Updates a project label name or color.
delete_project_label Deletes a project label and lets the backend remove item references.
set_item_labels Replaces an item’s labels with the supplied label ids.
add_item_label Adds one project label to an item.
remove_item_label Removes one project label from an item.

The first hosted MCP release intentionally keeps the surface area small.

Currently, the MCP server does not expose tools to:

  • Delete projects or items.
  • Empty trash.
  • Update item title or description.
  • Manage users, billing, or system administration.

If an agent needs one of those actions, it should tell you the action is not available through MCP yet instead of guessing.

The MCP server authenticates each request with your Personal Access Token and then calls the LFG List API as you.

That means:

  • Project membership controls what the agent can see.
  • Normal backend validation still applies.
  • Revoking the token immediately removes the agent’s access.
