What is this?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI assistants like Claude to Teamleader Focus - the all-in-one CRM, invoicing, and project management platform.

Instead of clicking through menus, just ask:

"Find all open deals for Acme Corporation"
"Create an invoice for 20 hours of consulting at €125/hour"
"Schedule a meeting with Sarah from TechStart next Tuesday at 2pm"
"Log 3 hours to the website project with description: frontend development"

Variable Required Description

TEAMLEADER_CLIENT_ID No* OAuth client ID
TEAMLEADER_CLIENT_SECRET No* OAuth client secret
TEAMLEADER_REFRESH_TOKEN No* OAuth refresh token

Token Refresh Modes

Static Mode: Only ACCESS_TOKEN set. Token expires after 1 hour. Manual refresh needed.

Auto Refresh Mode (Recommended): All four OAuth variables set. Tokens refresh automatically 5 minutes before expiry.


Troubleshooting

Server hangs or times out

Make sure your config includes the args array:

{
  "command": "node",
  "args": ["/path/to/teamleader-mcp/dist/index.js"]  // ← Required!
}
"Unknown tool" error

Tool names are prefixed with teamleader_. Use teamleader_deal_info, not get-deal.

Run mcporter list teamleader to see all tools.

401 Unauthorized

Access tokens expire after 1 hour. Set up automatic refresh with all OAuth variables, or manually refresh your token.

Rate limiting errors

Teamleader allows 200 requests/minute. The server respects rate limit headers. Wait and retry, or reduce request frequency.
