# scrum4me-mcp
MCP server for [Scrum4Me](https://github.com/madhura68/Scrum4Me). Exposes
the dev-flow as Model Context Protocol tools and prompts so Claude Code
(or any MCP-compatible client) can read context, update tasks, log
activity and create todos via native tool calls instead of curl.
## Tools
| Tool | Purpose | Demo write? |
|---|---|---|
| `health` | Service + DB ping | n/a |
| `list_products` | Active products the user owns or is a member of | n/a |
| `get_claude_context` | Bundled product + active sprint + next story (with tasks) + open todos | n/a |
| `update_task_status` | Set status to `todo`, `in_progress`, `review`, `done` | no |
| `update_task_plan` | Save/replace `implementation_plan` on a task | no |
| `log_implementation` | Append IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN to a story log | no |
| `log_test_result` | Append TEST_RESULT (PASSED/FAILED) | no |
| `log_commit` | Append COMMIT with hash and message | no |
| `create_todo` | Add a todo, optionally scoped to a product | no |
Demo accounts may read but writes return `PERMISSION_DENIED`.
## Prompts
- `implement_next_story` — full workflow: fetch context, log plan, walk
tasks, run tests, commit. Takes `product_id`.
## Setup
```bash
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/madhura68/scrum4me-mcp.git
cd scrum4me-mcp
npm install # postinstall runs prisma generate
cp .env.example .env # fill in DATABASE_URL and SCRUM4ME_TOKEN
npm run build
npm link # exposes the `scrum4me-mcp` bin globally
```
`SCRUM4ME_TOKEN` comes from Scrum4Me → **Instellingen → Tokens**
(`/settings/tokens`). The token is hashed with SHA-256 and looked up in
the same `api_tokens` table the REST API uses.
`DATABASE_URL` points to the same Postgres database Scrum4Me runs
against — typically the Neon connection string from the Scrum4Me
project's `.env`.
## Use with Claude Code
Add to `~/.claude/mcp_servers.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"scrum4me": {
"command": "scrum4me-mcp",
"env": {
"DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://...",
"SCRUM4ME_TOKEN": "..."
}
}
}
}
```
Restart Claude Code. The 9 tools and 1 prompt show up under the
`scrum4me` namespace.
## Schema sync
The Prisma schema is the source of truth in the upstream Scrum4Me
repo. It is vendored as a git submodule under `vendor/scrum4me`:
```bash
git submodule update --remote vendor/scrum4me
npm run sync-schema # copies prisma/schema.prisma, strips erd block
npm run prisma:generate
git commit -am "chore: sync schema with scrum4me@<sha>"
```
`sync-schema.sh` strips the upstream `generator erd` block so this
package does not depend on `prisma-erd-generator`.
## Development
```bash
npm run dev # tsx src/index.ts (stdio)
npm run typecheck
npm run build
```
Quick local smoke-test with the official MCP inspector:
```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node dist/index.js
```
## Risks
- **Schema drift** — Prisma Client and live DB can diverge if the
upstream schema changes without a sync. Re-run `sync-schema` and
`prisma:generate` whenever Scrum4Me ships a migration.
- **Token in plain text**`mcp_servers.json` stores `SCRUM4ME_TOKEN`
unencrypted. Use `${env:SCRUM4ME_TOKEN}` and a real keychain for
shared machines.
- **Concurrent updates** — no optimistic locking. Same caveat as the
REST API.
- **Production database** — verify against a preview database before
running against prod. The token check enforces user scope but does
not gate reads of unrelated products you happen to be a member of.
