Spec Driven Development
MCP Server that facilitates spec-driven development workflows, not just Vibe Coding.
Description from the maker (original English)
Read workspaces, tasks and time entries, create and update tasks, and log time in Kantata.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.3) reached the registry yesterday.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

Use your Kantata account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read workspaces, tasks and time entries, create and update tasks, and log time. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Kantata credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/kantata/
On first connect you provide a Kantata OX OAuth token, which you copy from Settings → API → Registered Applications → Show OAuth Token. It needs a paid Kantata OX account and the Account Administrator role. The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
