[](https://smithery.ai/server/@jessebautista/mcp-openproject-smithery) # MCP Server for OpenProject (Smithery Edition) This project provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for OpenProject, designed for deployment and use with [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/). It exposes a set of tools for interacting with a self-hosted OpenProject instance, and is compatible with Smithery's HTTP transport and tool listing requirements. ## About this MCP Server - Built with TypeScript and Node.js using the [@modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk). - Exposes OpenProject CRUD tools for projects and tasks (work packages). - Designed for easy deployment to Smithery, with Docker support and a minimal, production-ready structure. - Supports local development and testing with MCP Inspector and Smithery tools. ## Implemented OpenProject Tools * **Projects:** * `openproject-create-project`: Creates a new project. * `openproject-get-project`: Retrieves a specific project by ID. * `openproject-list-projects`: Lists all projects (supports pagination). * `openproject-update-project`: Updates an existing project's details. * `openproject-delete-project`: Deletes a project. * **Tasks (Work Packages):** * `openproject-create-task`: Creates a new task within a project. * `openproject-get-task`: Retrieves a specific task by ID. * `openproject-list-tasks`: Lists tasks, optionally filtered by project ID (supports pagination). * `openproject-update-task`: Updates an existing task (requires `lockVersion`). * `openproject-delete-task`: Deletes a task. ## Prerequisites * Node.js (v18 or later recommended) * npm * An OpenProject instance accessible via URL * An OpenProject API Key * (Optional) Docker for containerized builds ## HTTP Entrypoint and Local Development This MCP server now uses Express and the official MCP Streamable HTTP transport. The server is accessible at `http://localhost:8000/mcp` after running `npm run dev` or `npm start`. **Entrypoint code (see `src/index.ts`):** ```typescript import express from "express"; import { StreamableHTTPServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/streamableHttp.js"; const app = express(); app.use(express.json()); const mcpServer = setupMCPServer(); const transport = new StreamableHTTPServerTransport({ sessionIdGenerator: undefined }); mcpServer.connect(transport); app.all("/mcp", (req, res) => { transport.handleRequest(req, res, req.body); }); app.get("/", (_req, res) => res.send("MCP OpenProject server is running!")); const PORT = process.env.PORT || 8000; app.listen(PORT, () => { console.log(`MCP server running on port ${PORT}`); }); ``` - The `/mcp` endpoint is the main MCP HTTP endpoint for Smithery and MCP clients. - The root `/` endpoint is a health check. ## Running Locally 1. Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 2. Build the project: ```bash npm run build ``` 3. Start the server (dev mode): ```bash npm run dev # or for production npm start ``` 4. Access the MCP endpoint at [http://localhost:8000/mcp](http://localhost:8000/mcp) ## Docker Usage Build and run as before: ```bash docker build -t mcp-openproject-smithery . docker run --rm -p 8000:8000 --env-file .env mcp-openproject-smithery ``` ## Smithery Deployment This project is ready for Smithery. The `/mcp` endpoint is compatible with Smithery's HTTP transport requirements.
