Todo List MCP Server

License: MIT Python Ruff uv

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides:

  • Todo List Management: Persistent todo list with SQLite database storage
  • Reminder Service: Desktop notifications with optional sound alerts
  • Cross-platform Sound System: Sound playback on Windows, macOS, and Linux

Quick Start

Prerequisites

  • UV installed
  • Python 3.11 or higher

Configuration

The application stores data in ~/.todo-list-mcp/ directory:

  • todo_list.db - SQLite database for tasks
  • reminder_daemon/ - Reminder daemon data

No additional configuration is required unless you want to customize the database location. You can optionally create a .env file in ~/.todo-list-mcp/ with:

TODO_LIST_MCP__DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///path/to/custom/location.db

VSCode IDE Setup

Enter the following details in your mcp.json configuration file:

"todo-list-mcp": {
    "type": "stdio",
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
        "todo-list-mcp@latest"
    ]
}
