monday.com MCP: connect it to Claude Code, plus ready-made skills

Pull items, status, owners and due dates from monday.com boards, and report what is stuck, overdue or done this week across your projects.

How to connect monday.com MCP to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor

  1. monday MCP, monday.com's official remote server at https://mcp.monday.com/mcp, signed in with OAuth. It's in Claude's connector directory; in Claude Code run claude mcp add --transport http monday https://mcp.monday.com/mcp and authenticate with /mcp, and Codex and Cursor take the same URL. It's included on every monday.com plan, and admins control it under Admin > Permissions > AI Connectors (get started).
  2. Local server in read-only mode. monday.com's open-source server runs with your API token, and its --read-only flag drops every tool that creates or changes items: claude mcp add --env MONDAY_TOKEN=<token> --transport stdio monday -- npx @mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp@latest --read-only.
  3. GraphQL API with a token. Copy a personal token from your avatar menu under Developers > My access tokens, store it in MONDAY_API_TOKEN, and send it in the Authorization header.

A personal token carries all of your monday.com permissions; the local server's --read-only mode, or a user who can only view the boards in the report, keeps the agent from editing items.

What agents do with monday.com

monday.com has one GraphQL API at https://api.monday.com/v2. Reports read boards(ids: [...]) and page through items_page, filtering with query_params rules on columns (a status column any_of Stuck, a date column before today) and returning each item's name, group, updated_at and column_values for status, people, date, timeline and number columns. updates hold the comments on an item, and activity_logs record changes on a board. Every query spends complexity points, so a skill asks only for the columns it prints.

Teams schedule a weekly status per board grouped by status, overdue items with their owners, items marked Stuck for more than a few days, workload per person, and a cross-board roll-up of project health for a portfolio review.
