    TL;DR: „monday.com runs two MCP servers: Platform MCP (boards, items, docs) and Apps MCP (app deployment). Plus native integrations for Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, Mistral, Perplexity, and Figma Make. 30+ tools for AI-driven workflows."

    — Till Freitag

    30-Second Version

    monday.com has massively expanded its MCP ecosystem. Two MCP servers (Platform + Apps), 30+ tools for board operations, item management, dashboards, docs, and sprints – plus native integrations for 9 AI clients including Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and Gemini. This is the most comprehensive MCP implementation of any work management platform.

    Note: With Sidekick 3.0, monday.com uses the same MCP infrastructure internally – every tool in this list is also available to Sidekick.

    What Is monday MCP?

    The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the open standard through which AI assistants securely access external platforms. monday.com operates a hosted MCP server at https://mcp.monday.com/mcp that gives AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT direct access to your workspace.

    Configuration is dead simple:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "monday-mcp": {
          "url": "https://mcp.monday.com/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

    No local setup. No token management. Just connect and go.

    The Two MCP Servers

    monday.com provides two distinct MCP servers for different use cases:

    MCPPurposeAudience
    Platform MCPInteract with monday.com data – boards, items, columns, usersCustomers, developers, agent builders
    Apps MCPDeploy and manage monday.com appsApp developers

    Platform MCP: Read and Write Data

    The Platform MCP is the open-source server (GitHub: mondaycom/mcp), maintained by the monday.com AI team. It covers all essential platform operations.

    Apps MCP: Build and Deploy Apps

    The Apps MCP is designed for developers building monday.com apps. It manages app versions, features, deployments, and environment variables – completely separate from the Platform MCP.

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "monday-apps-mcp": {
          "command": "npx",
          "args": [
            "@mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp",
            "-t", "your_monday_api_token",
            "--mode", "apps"
          ]
        }
      }
    }

    Native AI Integrations

    Beyond the open MCP protocol, monday.com provides pre-configured integrations for nine AI clients:

    AI ClientStatus
    Claude (Anthropic)✅ Natively supported
    Cursor✅ Natively supported
    ChatGPT (OpenAI)✅ Natively supported
    Microsoft Copilot✅ Natively supported
    Microsoft Copilot Studio✅ Natively supported
    Perplexity✅ Natively supported
    Mistral (le Chat)✅ Natively supported
    Gemini CLI✅ Natively supported
    Figma Make✅ Natively supported

    This is remarkable: monday.com supports every relevant AI frontend – from developer tools (Cursor) to consumer assistants (ChatGPT, Gemini) to design tools (Figma Make).

    Using Both MCPs Together

    For app developers, the greatest value comes from combining both MCP servers:

    1. Read board schemas and item data → Platform MCP
    2. Scaffold, deploy, and promote app versions → Apps MCP
    3. Set environment variables and check deployment logs → Apps MCP
    4. Test app behavior by querying live data → Platform MCP

    An AI agent can automate a large portion of the app-building workflow end to end.

    MCP and Sidekick 3.0: Shared Infrastructure

    The tools in this list also form the foundation for Sidekick 3.0, monday.com's built-in AI assistant. While MCP opens access for external AI agents, Sidekick uses the same infrastructure internally. The result: every new MCP tool automatically extends Sidekick – and vice versa.

    This combination makes monday.com the only work management platform with a consistent AI strategy: internal (Sidekick) and external (MCP).

    What This Means for Teams

    For monday.com Users

    The MCP integration transforms monday.com into an AI-driven workspace. Instead of clicking through menus, teams can use natural language to:

    • Create and manage items and sub-items
    • Build dashboards with widgets
    • Move boards between workspaces
    • Generate sprint summaries
    • Trigger notifications

    For Developers and Agent Builders

    The all_monday_api fallback is the game-changer: any GraphQL query can be executed via MCP. This makes monday.com a fully programmable platform for AI agents – without needing to build custom API integrations.

    For Our Team

    We already use the monday MCP in our own workflows – combined with Claude and Cursor. The integration with Sidekick 3.0 makes the platform even more powerful.

    Limitations

    • Permissions: All tools respect monday.com's security model. Access only to data the user can see.
    • UI components: show-table, show-chart etc. only work in specific AI clients
    • Plan dependency: Some features require higher tiers
    • API version: Controllable via headers – important for breaking changes

    Our Take

    With two MCP servers, 30+ tools, and 9 native integrations, monday.com has built the most comprehensive MCP implementation in the work management space. This isn't an experiment – it's infrastructure.

    The combination of a hosted server (no local setup) and the all_monday_api fallback (any GraphQL operation possible) makes this implementation exemplary. Other platforms offer MCP support – monday.com offers an MCP ecosystem.
