Ticktick

@Ticktick show me all tasks due this week across my projects, grouped by priority

Here's what's due this week: **High Priority (3 tasks)** - Finish Q1 budget review (Marketing project, due Wed) - Submit vendor contracts (Operations, due Fri) - Review design mockups (Product Launch, due Thu) **Medium Priority (5 tasks)** - Update team wiki (Internal Docs, due Tue) - Schedule client calls (Sales Pipeline, due Wed) - Three additional tasks in Development project **Low Priority (2 tasks)** - Organize shared drive (Admin, due Sat) - Update contact list (CRM Cleanup, due Sun) This example illustrates fetching tasks with date and priority filters across multiple projects.

This read-heavy example demonstrates the MCP's ability to aggregate task data across projects with filtering. Requires OAuth2 scope for reading all projects and tasks. The actual response structure depends on how your TickTick account organizes priorities and projects—some users may see different priority labels or project structures.

@Ticktick create a task 'Review API documentation' in my Development project, due Friday with a reminder 2 hours before

Task created successfully: **Review API documentation** - Project: Development - Due: Friday, January 17, 2025 at 5:00 PM - Reminder: Friday at 3:00 PM - Status: Open - Task ID: 67a3f8b2c4e9d1a2b3c4d5e6 This example shows the MCP creating a task with title, project assignment, due date, and reminder configuration. The task is now visible in your TickTick workspace.

This write example showcases task creation with multiple parameters. Requires OAuth2 write permissions. The MCP needs a valid project ID—if you reference a project by name, the integration must first resolve it to an ID. Side-effect: immediately creates a live task in your TickTick account, so confirm details before executing.

@Ticktick look at my 'Product Launch' project and draft a status update email summarizing completed vs. remaining tasks

Based on your Product Launch project: **Draft Status Update:** Team— We've completed 12 of 18 tasks (67%) for the Product Launch. Key accomplishments this week: finalized landing page copy, completed user testing round 2, and locked pricing tiers. Remaining work (6 tasks): - High priority: Press release draft (due Mon), app store screenshots (due Wed) - Medium priority: Support docs, FAQ page, analytics setup - Low priority: Social media calendar We're on track for the Jan 24 launch if the two high-priority items close by midweek. This example combines TickTick data retrieval with AI synthesis to generate a narrative summary.

This synthesis example pairs the MCP's project data fetch with the AI's summarization capabilities. The AI interprets task completion status, due dates, and priorities to generate prose—useful for standups or stakeholder updates. Accuracy depends on your task metadata quality (clear titles, accurate due dates). The MCP provides raw data; the AI adds interpretation.

When TickTick MCP works for async standup updates

A 6-person engineering team runs async standups in Slack and uses TickTick to track sprint tasks. The MCP's Complete Task and Create Task tools let a bot parse standup messages and update TickTick without anyone leaving Slack. This works if your team already lives in TickTick and your standup format is predictable (blockers, done items, next tasks). The OAuth2 flow means each dev authorizes once, then the bot acts on their behalf. The threshold: if your team uses Linear or Jira for sprint tracking, this MCP creates a sync problem—you'll end up with two sources of truth. Use this when TickTick is already your single task system and you want to eliminate the tab-switching tax during standups.

How TickTick MCP handles new client onboarding workflows

A 12-person creative agency gets 3-5 new client projects per month. The MCP's Create Project and Create Task tools let an intake bot spin up a TickTick project from a Typeform submission—pre-populate discovery tasks, set due dates, assign the account lead. This saves 20 minutes per intake and eliminates the 'forgot to create the project' failure mode. The catch: TickTick's project structure is flat, so if your agency runs complex multi-phase engagements with nested workstreams, you'll hit the organizational ceiling fast. Use this if your projects are straightforward (under 50 tasks each) and your intake process is templatized. If you need Gantt charts or dependencies, the MCP won't cover it—you're shopping for Asana or Monday.

When TickTick MCP automates weekly review routines

A solo consultant runs a Friday afternoon GTD review: archive completed tasks, reschedule overdue items, create next week's priorities. The MCP's Get project with data and Complete Task tools let a Shortcuts or Zapier workflow pull the week's task list, surface what's stale, and batch-complete or reschedule based on simple rules. This works if you're disciplined about tagging and due dates—the MCP can't infer priority or context from messy task titles. The 13-tool scope is overkill for most solopreneurs (you'll use 4-5 tools max), but the OAuth2 setup is one-time pain for ongoing convenience. Use this if you're already a TickTick power user and your review process is mechanical enough to script. If your review involves judgment calls on every task, keep it manual.
