Docket MCP server

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

• todo_add

  Capture work the moment it comes up, from any tool or project, without the ceremony of a ticket. Automatically filed under the current project — you never need to say which. Add sourceUrl when it maps to something in Notion/GitLab/Obsidian/GitHub so it can be picked back up there. Use list="backlog" to park something without holding it in context; list="todo" (default) for near-term work.

• todo_check_updatewrite action

  Check whether a newer version of docket is published on npm. Read-only — never installs anything. If one is available, tell the user and let THEM decide whether to run `docket update` in their own terminal (it asks for confirmation before installing).

• todo_claim

  Mark an item as actively being worked on by you (the calling agent). Advisory, not a lock — check todo_list(inProgress: true) before starting new work to avoid duplicating another agent's active item. Call todo_release or todo_complete when you stop.

• todo_complete

  Mark a todo as done by id.

• todo_deletewrite action

  Permanently remove a todo by id.

• todo_edit

  Edit an existing item's title/description/category/priority/dueDate/sourceUrl/list by id. Only fields you pass are changed. Pass an empty string ("") for description/category/priority/dueDate/sourceUrl to clear that field.

• todo_history

  Show the change history (create/edit/claim/release/complete) for one item, who made each change and when.

• todo_list

  What's open here. Scoped to the current project (plus unfiled items) unless you ask otherwise, and compact by default — one line per item. Pass workspace:"*" to see every project, or verbose:true for full records.

• todo_release

  Clear the in-progress claim on an item without completing it (e.g. you're pausing this work).

• todo_version

  Report this docket process's data format version and start time. Use to sanity-check whether your MCP connection is running stale code (e.g. right after an update) — if todo_list output looks wrong (missing/undefined fields), check this first and reconnect if the process looks old.
