README
A Model Context Protocol server that exposes ExecuFunction tools to IDE clients like Cursor, Claude Desktop, and VS Code.
Quick Start
1. Create a Personal Access Token
- Go to ExecuFunction → Settings → Developer → Access Tokens
- Click "Create Token"
- Name it (e.g., "Cursor MCP")
- Select scopes:
mcp:*(or specific scopes likeprojects:read,tasks:write) - Save the token immediately - it's only shown once!
2. Configure Your MCP Client
Claude Desktop
Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"execufunction": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@execufunction/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"EXF_API_URL": "https://execufunction.com",
"EXF_PAT": "exf_pat_your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
Cursor
Add to your Cursor MCP settings:
{
"execufunction": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@execufunction/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"EXF_API_URL": "https://execufunction.com",
"EXF_PAT": "exf_pat_your_token_here"
}
}
}
VS Code
Configure in your MCP extension settings.
3. Restart Your IDE
After configuration, restart your IDE to load the MCP server.

Usage Examples
1. Get project context and create a task
User prompt: "Get context for my auth project and create a task to fix the token refresh bug"
Tools invoked:
project_list— Lists projects to find the auth projectproject_get_context— Retrieves tasks, notes, and signals for the projecttask_create— Creates a new task with title, description, and project linkage
Result: The AI reads existing project context (open tasks, recent notes) to avoid duplicates, then creates a well-scoped task linked to the correct project.
2. Semantic code search
User prompt: "Find where we handle webhook signature verification"
Tools invoked:
codebase_search— Searches indexed code for "webhook signature verification"
Result: Returns ranked code chunks with file paths, line numbers, and surrounding context. The AI can then read the matched files to answer follow-up questions.
3. Knowledge search and note creation
User prompt: "Search for our deployment process and create a note summarizing the steps"
Tools invoked:
note_search— Searches the knowledge base for "deployment process"code_memory_search— Searches stored code facts for deployment-related memoriesnote_create— Creates a new note with a markdown summary of the deployment steps
Result: The AI synthesizes information from existing notes and code memories into a single reference note, linked to the relevant project.
Resources
The server also exposes project context bundles as MCP resources:
exf://projects/{id}/context- Full context bundle for a project
Environment Variables
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
EXF_API_URL |
Yes | ExecuFunction API URL |
EXF_PAT |
Yes | Personal Access Token |
Development
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Run in development mode
npm run dev
# Test with MCP Inspector
npm run inspect
# Build for production
npm run build
Security
- PATs are stored as SHA-256 hashes - plaintext is never stored
- Tokens can be revoked at any time from ExecuFunction Settings
- Use minimal scopes for your use case
- Never commit tokens to version control
Scopes
| Scope | Description |
|---|---|
mcp:* |
All MCP operations (recommended for IDE use) |
projects:read |
Read project data |
projects:write |
Create/update projects |
tasks:read |
Read tasks |
tasks:write |
Create/update/complete tasks |
knowledge:read |
Search/read notes |
knowledge:write |

Troubleshooting
"EXF_API_URL environment variable is required"
Make sure you've configured the env section in your MCP client config.
"Invalid token"
- Check that your token starts with
exf_pat_ - Verify the token hasn't been revoked
- Check the token hasn't expired
Tools not appearing
- Restart your IDE after configuration changes
- Check IDE logs for MCP errors
- Try running
npm run inspectto test the server directly
