## About

ClickUp's official hosted MCP server (public beta) exposes task management, time tracking, workspace hierarchy, chat, and docs tools. It authenticates only via OAuth 2.1 with PKCE; API keys are not supported. Rate limits vary by plan.

## Install

1. **Connect it in ChatGPT** Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT (Settings → Security and login), open Plugins, select + and paste https://mcp.clickup.com/mcp as the MCP server URL, then sign in with OAuth. Add it to a chat from the composer's tools menu.

2. **Or add it to Codex or the API**

   Codex CLI:

   ```bash
   codex mcp add clickup --url https://mcp.clickup.com/mcp
   codex mcp login clickup
