Backlog Server

A read-only MCP server for Backlog.

Quick start:

npx -y @duytnb79/backlog-mcp

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• A Backlog API key
• Your Backlog space URL

Installation

Run directly with npx:

npx -y @duytnb79/backlog-mcp

Or install globally:

npm install -g @duytnb79/backlog-mcp
backlog-mcp

Configuration

Create a .env file or set environment variables before starting the server:

BACKLOG_BASE_URL="https://your-space.backlog.com"
BACKLOG_API_KEY="your_backlog_api_key"
BACKLOG_TIMEOUT_MS="10000"
BACKLOG_MAX_PAGE_SIZE="100"

The server automatically loads .env when running locally.

• BACKLOG_BASE_URL
• BACKLOG_API_KEY

Optional:

• BACKLOG_TIMEOUT_MS
• BACKLOG_MAX_PAGE_SIZE

Security

• Read-only access only
• No hardcoded secrets

Notes

• Do not commit .env
• Prefer one API key per teammate
• Publishing this package does not expose Backlog data by itself; access still depends on each user's API key
