What it does

Basecamp MCP bridges the gap between LLMs and Basecamp by wrapping the official Basecamp CLI. It allows an AI agent to read and write to your Basecamp workspace, managing project timelines, creating tasks, and posting messages without leaving the chat interface.

Tools

basecamp_projects_list: Lists all available projects.
basecamp_projects_create: Initializes a new project.
basecamp_todos_create: Adds a new todo item to a list.
basecamp_todos_complete: Marks a task as finished.
basecamp_messages_create: Posts a new message to a project.
basecamp_search: Performs a global search across the Basecamp account.
basecamp_notifications_list: Retrieves recent notifications.
basecamp_people_list: Lists users in the organization.
