planner_create_task
Create task (bucket, due date, priority, assignees, description)
How to use it
Project documentation lists planner_create_task for the MCP Planner MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
