Tama MCP

What it does

Tama is an intelligent task management system that connects a CLI tool with an MCP server, allowing AI agents to manage project workflows, decompose complex goals into actionable sub-tasks, and track dependencies using a SQLite backend.

Tools

• list_tasks: Retrieves all tasks with status and priority filtering in a markdown table.
• show_task: Provides detailed information for a specific task or sub-task.
• set_status: Updates the lifecycle state of a task (e.g., pending, in-progress, done).
• next_task: Identifies the next logical task to execute based on dependencies.
• add_task / add_subtask: Creates new top-level tasks or child tasks for existing ones.
• remove_item: Deletes tasks and automatically cleans up associated dependencies.
• add_dependency / remove_dependency: Manages task relationships and ordering.
• check_dependencies: Scans for circular dependencies within the task graph.
