MCP.Pizza Chef: delorenj

Your assistant gets full run of a Trello board: cards, lists, checklists, comments, labels, due dates, file attachments, and custom fields. It can pull a card's acceptance-criteria checklist into the conversation, watch a card or list so activity shows up in your Trello notifications, and switch between boards and workspaces without a restart. Setup is a short snippet in your app's settings plus a free Trello key and token. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and Cursor.

MCP Server Trello

Verified on MseeP MCP Registry npm version

Server Trello MCP server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents full access to your Trello boards — cards, lists, checklists, attachments, comments, custom fields, and workspaces — with built-in rate limiting, type safety, and workflow-level tools you won't find in a plain API wrapper, like acceptance-criteria extraction and checklist dependency queries. 57 tools, one npx install, powered by Bun.

Highlights

  • Acceptance criteria, natively: get_acceptance_criteria pulls a card's AC checklist straight into your agent's context — no competitor offers it.
  • Watch anything: watch_card and watch_list route card and list activity into your Trello notifications.
  • Full list management: create, update, reorder (update_list_position), and archive lists.
  • Board and workspace switching on the fly: no restarts, no config edits.
  • Rate limiting handled for you: respects Trello's API limits automatically (300 req/10s per key, 100 req/10s per token).
  • Bun-powered: fast startup and a 2.8-4.4x performance boost over the old Node build. npx and npm work too.
