Tasks Timeline shows and manages task items in an Obsidian vault. It is a continuation of obsidian-tasks-calendar-wrapper, based on tasks-timeline-components.
MCP server
The plugin includes a built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI agents read and write tasks in your vault.
Setup
- Open Settings > Tasks Timeline > MCP server
- Toggle Enable MCP server on
- The server starts on
http://127.0.0.1:27182/mcp(port is configurable)
Connecting AI clients
Add the following to your MCP client configuration (e.g. Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor):
{
"mcpServers": {
"tasks-timeline": {
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:27182/mcp"
}
}
}
Bearer-token auth is enabled by default. Copy the token from Settings > Tasks Timeline > MCP server and configure it as an Authorization: Bearer <token> header in clients that support HTTP MCP headers.
