Model Context Protocol is the bridge between your AI coding agents and your tools. Kanteen leverages MCP to create the first truly AI-native project management experience.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI models to securely connect and interact with external tools and data sources. Think of it as a universal adapter that lets your coding agent talk to your project management board, databases, APIs, and other services.
Instead of manually switching between your IDE and your project board, your AI agent can read tasks, update cards, create new items, and keep everything in sync—all while you focus on coding.
Built from the ground up for AI agents to understand and interact with
Your agent sees updates instantly and can respond to changes immediately
Designed for developers who want their tools to work seamlessly together
Kanteen exposes your project board through MCP, giving your AI agent full visibility and control
Your agent can see all boards, columns, and cards. It understands your project structure and current state.
As your agent works on tasks, it can update your board to reflect progress in real-time.
Your agent reads card requirements, implements the feature, then updates the board—all autonomously.
No more context switching. Your project board and codebase stay perfectly aligned.

The first project management tool designed for the AI era
Not a traditional tool with AI bolted on. Built from scratch for AI agents to read, understand, and update.
Your agent handles the board updates. You stay in your IDE and focus on solving problems.
No more stale boards. Your project status is automatically synchronized as your agent works.
Works with Cursor, Claude, and any MCP-compatible tool. One protocol, infinite possibilities.
Simple API, clear documentation, and designed by developers for developers.
Everyone sees real-time progress. AI agents and humans working together, transparently.
A typical workflow with Kanteen and your AI agent
You: 'Show me what's in my Todo column'
Agent reads your Kanteen board and lists all pending tasks
You: 'Implement the user authentication feature'
Agent pulls the card details, understands requirements, and starts coding
Agent works autonomously
Moves card to 'In Progress', implements the feature, writes tests
Feature complete
Agent moves card to 'Done' and adds a comment with implementation summary
You check the board
Everything is up-to-date. Your team sees progress without you lifting a finger
