Huly MCP
      
Huly MCP is a feature-complete MCP server for Huly integration. Published on npm as @firfi/huly-mcp.
[!IMPORTANT] Hosted Huly is shutting down. Huly's upstream README says shutdown is expected July 20. If you use
https://huly.app, export and migrate your data as soon as possible. See the backup and restore guide and self-hosting repository. Self-hosted deployments are not affected.
Installation
The standard configuration works with most MCP clients:
{
"mcpServers": {
"huly": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@firfi/huly-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"HULY_URL": "https://your-huly-instance.example.com",
"HULY_EMAIL": "your@email.com",
"HULY_PASSWORD": "yourpassword",
"HULY_WORKSPACE": "yourworkspace"
}
}
}
}
Tool Exposure Defaults
By default (HULY_TOOL_MODE=auto), Huly MCP optimizes for current MCP clients by avoiding a 470-tool eager list. Exact claude-code sessions receive native Huly tools. Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, OpenCode, Claude AI/Desktop-style clients, and unknown clients receive a small proxy surface: list_tool_categories, search_tools, get_tool_schema, and invoke_tool.
Exact native tool names still dispatch when a client calls them directly, but many clients only call tools returned by tools/list. Set HULY_TOOL_MODE=native to make every Huly tool appear first-class, or use TOOLSETS / TOOLS to pin frequently used native tools while keeping proxy discovery available.

Updating
The @latest tag asks the package runner for the newest version. Some MCP clients keep server processes or resolved installs alive, so restart or re-add the server when updating:
| Client | How to update | |--------|--------------| | Codex | codex mcp remove huly then re-add with the install command above. If your password has shell-sensitive characters, edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly instead | | Claude Code | claude mcp remove huly then re-add with the install command above | | Claude Desktop | Restart the app (it runs npx on startup) | | VS Code / Cursor | Restart the MCP server from the command palette/configured client or reload the window | | OpenCode | Restart OpenCode or start a new session after config changes | | npx (manual) | npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest β the -y flag auto-confirms install prompts |
HTTP Transport
By default, the server uses stdio transport. For HTTP transport:
HULY_URL=https://your-huly-instance.example.com \
HULY_EMAIL=your@email.com \
HULY_PASSWORD=yourpassword \
HULY_WORKSPACE=yourworkspace \
MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest
Server listens on http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp by default.
Configure with MCP_HTTP_PORT and MCP_HTTP_HOST:
MCP_TRANSPORT=http MCP_HTTP_PORT=8080 MCP_HTTP_HOST=0.0.0.0 npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest
HTTP MCP Protocol Support
Both stdio and HTTP implement the released MCP 2026-07-28 interface and retain SDK-owned compatibility for MCP 2025-06-18 clients. Stdio pins each connection to the protocol era selected by its opening exchange; HTTP serves legacy requests statelessly. Modern HTTP requires one JSON-RPC message per POST, Accept: application/json, text/event-stream, MCP-Protocol-Version: 2026-07-28, Mcp-Method, method-specific Mcp-Name, and per-request _meta.io.modelcontextprotocol/ client metadata. Huly credentials are configured separately through env vars or supported x-huly- headers.
For hosted or tunneled HTTP deployments, you can require an MCP endpoint bearer token:
MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
MCP_AUTH_TOKEN="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
npx -y @firfi/huly-mcp@latest
HTTP clients must then send:
Authorization: Bearer <MCP_AUTH_TOKEN>
MCP_AUTH_TOKEN protects only the MCP HTTP /mcp endpoint. It is unrelated to HULY_TOKEN, does not authenticate to Huly, and does not replace HULY_EMAIL / HULY_PASSWORD / HULY_TOKEN. Huly credentials are still required through process env vars or, for hosted URL deployments, the supported x-huly-* headers. Stdio deployments do not use MCP_AUTH_TOKEN.
Hosted HTTP Header Configuration
For hosted URL deployments, keep the server process configured with MCP_TRANSPORT=http. A hosting layer can forward per-session Huly credentials as request headers, so one hosted server can serve different Huly workspaces without process-wide HULY_* env vars.
Supported v1 headers:
| Header | Required | Description | |--------|----------|-------------| | x-huly-url | Yes | Huly instance URL | | x-huly-workspace | Yes | Workspace identifier | | x-huly-token | Yes | Huly API token | | x-huly-connection-timeout | No | Connection timeout in ms |
If any x-huly-* header is present, all required headers must be present. Missing values are not filled from environment variables. Email/password auth is not supported in hosted header configuration v1.
For a Smithery publish schema example, see docs/SMITHERY_URL_PUBLISH.md.
Environment Variables
| Variable | Required | Description | |----------|----------|-------------| | HULY_URL | Yes | Reachable self-hosted or replacement hosted Huly instance URL | | HULY_EMAIL | Auth | Account email | | HULY_PASSWORD | Auth | Account password | | HULY_TOKEN | Auth* | API token (alternative to email/password) | | HULY_WORKSPACE | Yes | Workspace identifier | | HULY_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT | No | Connection timeout in ms. Omit to use the package default. | | MCP_TRANSPORT | No | Transport type: stdio (default) or http | | MCP_HTTP_PORT | No | HTTP server port (falls back to PORT, then 3000) | | MCP_HTTP_HOST | No | HTTP server host. Omit to bind to the package default loopback host. | | MCP_AUTH_TOKEN | No | Optional bearer token required by HTTP clients for /mcp. This protects the MCP endpoint only; it is not a Huly API token. | | HULY_TOOL_MODE | No | Tool exposure mode: auto (default), native, or proxy. auto keeps exact claude-code native and resolves Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, opencode, Claude AI, and unknown clients to proxy mode. | | PROXY_OUTPUT_STRICT | No | Proxy candidate strictness: false (default) keeps proxy discovery broad; true makes active TOOLSETS / TOOLS a hard allow-list for proxy search, schema lookup, and invocation. | | TOOLSETS | No | Comma-separated tool categories to expose. If neither TOOLSETS nor TOOLS is set, all native Huly tools are exposed. Example: issues,projects,search | | TOOLS | No | Comma-separated exact tool names to expose in addition to selected toolsets. Example: list_documents,create_issue |
*Auth: Provide either HULY_EMAIL + HULY_PASSWORD or HULY_TOKEN.
Built-in Diagnostic Tools
get_version returns the current server version and latest npm version.
get_huly_context returns sanitized runtime/configuration context for the current MCP session without connecting to Huly. It reports package version, transport, auth mode, sanitized Huly URL origin/host/protocol, workspace, timeout, config sources, native tool scope filtering, and resolved native/proxy tool exposure. Tokens, passwords, email values, credential headers, URL paths, URL query strings, and URL credentials are never returned.
MCP Resources
The server exposes read-only MCP Resources as JSON context for clients that support resources/read.
<!-- resources:start --> <!-- AUTO-GENERATED from src/mcp/resources.ts resourceTemplates. Do not edit manually. Run pnpm update-readme to regenerate. --> | Template | Name | Description | MIME Type | |----------|------|-------------|-----------| | huly://projects/{project} | huly-project | Read full details for a Huly tracker project by project identifier, for example huly://projects/HULY. | application/json | | huly://issues/{issue} | huly-issue | Read full details for a Huly issue by full issue identifier, for example huly://issues/HULY-123. | application/json | | huly://projects/{project}/issues/{issue} | huly-project-issue | Read full details for a Huly issue by project identifier and issue number, for example huly://projects/HULY/issues/123. | application/json | <!-- resources:end -->
resources/list returns concrete active project resources. Issue resources are template-based: use resources/templates/list to discover supported issue URI templates, then read a known issue URI.

Available Tools
When resolved tool exposure is proxy, clients see the built-in tools plus these proxy meta-tools. Native Huly tools are then discovered and invoked through the proxy candidate catalog. Exact native tool names also dispatch when a client calls them directly, subject to PROXY_OUTPUT_STRICT scope rules, but hidden native tools are not advertised through tools/list.
Proxy Meta-Tools
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | list_tool_categories | Lists Huly tool categories available through this proxy. Use this first when you need a broad map of capabilities before searching for a specific Huly tool. | | search_tools | Searches the current proxy-visible Huly tool catalog by tool name, category, description, and parameter names. Returns exact tool names plus required and optional parameter names for single-call follow-up with get_tool_schema or invoke_tool. | | get_tool_schema | Returns the exact input and output schema for one proxy-visible Huly tool. Use this before invoke_tool when you are not certain about required argument names or result shape. | | invoke_tool | Invokes one proxy-visible Huly tool by exact name with its arguments. This tool can call read or write Huly operations; check get_tool_schema and the target tool annotations when safety matters. |
TOOLSETS categories: projects, issues, comments, milestones, documents, storage, attachments, contacts, channels, calendar, time tracking, search, associations, activity, notifications, workspace, approvals, boards, cards, collaborators, custom-fields, drive, inventory, labels, leads, templates, model-administration, planner, preferences, processes, recruiting, sdk-discovery, security-administration, sequence-administration, spaces, tag-categories, tags, task-management, test-management, user-statuses, views, virtual-office, workflow-statuses
Projects
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | list_project_target_preferences | List low-level per-project tracker target preference records. These Huly ProjectTargetPreference records are attached to projects and used by tracker UI/workflows to remember target-related preference props. Omit project to list recent preferences across projects, or pass a project identifier to inspect one project's preference. Props are SDK-open key/value payloads. | | upsert_project_target_preference | Create or update the low-level ProjectTargetPreference record for a project. This refreshes usedOn and merges SDK-open target preference props by key. Use for tracker SDK parity or advanced administration; ordinary project and issue workflows usually do not need this tool. | | list_projects | List all Huly projects. Returns projects sorted by name. Supports filtering by archived status. | | get_project | Get full details of a Huly project including its statuses. Returns project name, description, archived flag, default status, and all available statuses. | | list_statuses | List all issue statuses for a Huly project with workflow category and default info. Returns status name, category, and isDefault. Use this to discover valid statuses before creating or updating issues. | | create_project | Create a new Huly tracker project. Idempotent: returns existing project if one with the same identifier already exists (created=false). Identifier must be 1-5 uppercase alphanumeric chars starting with a letter. | | update_project | Update a Huly project. Only provided fields are modified. Set description to null to clear it. | | delete_project | Permanently delete a Huly project. All issues, milestones, and components in this project will be orphaned. This action cannot be undone. |
Issues
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | preview_deletion | Preview the impact of deleting a Huly entity before actually deleting it. Shows affected sub-entities, relations, and warnings. Supports issues, projects, components, and milestones. Use this to understand cascade effects before calling a delete operation. | | list_components | List components in a Huly project. Components organize issues by area/feature. Returns components sorted by modification date (newest first). | | get_component | Retrieve full details for a Huly component. Use this to view component content and metadata. | | create_component | Create a new component in a Huly project. Components help organize issues by area/feature. Description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. Returns the created component ID and label. | | update_component | Update fields on an existing Huly component. Only provided fields are modified. Description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. | | set_issue_component | Set or clear the component on a Huly issue. Pass null for component to clear it. | | delete_component | Permanently delete a Huly component. This action cannot be undone. | | list_issues | Query Huly issues with optional filters. Returns issues sorted by modification date (newest first). Supports filtering by project, exact workflow status name (status), Huly SDK task.statusCategory key (statusCategory: UnStarted, ToDo, Active, Won, Lost), assignee, creator (raw Person ID, exact email, or exact display name), component, a human-readable attached label title (label, exact and case-insensitive), milestone (project-scoped ID or exact case-insensitive label), milestone presence (hasMilestone), parentIssue (to list children of a specific issue), and isTopLevel (to return only native top-level issues). Creator, label, and milestone filters are applied before the result limit; ambiguous creator display names fail actionably and unknown creators return an empty list. Each result includes creator as a stable Person reference { id, name?, email? } when resolvable and the assigned milestone as { id, label } when resolvable. Supports searching by title substring (titleSearch) and description content (descriptionSearch). Each result includes deterministic label summaries with title and available color; missing labels are an empty array, duplicate titles collapse case-insensitively while preferring a valid color, and unusable partial attachments are omitted with a tool warning. | | get_issue | Retrieve full details for a Huly issue including markdown description, its creator as a stable Person reference { id, name?, email? } when resolvable, its assigned milestone as { id, label } when resolvable, and deterministic attached-label summaries with title and available color. Missing labels are an empty array, duplicate titles collapse case-insensitively while preferring a valid color, and unusable partial creator or label metadata is omitted with one bounded tool warning. Use this to view issue content, comments, classification, or full metadata. | | create_issue | Create a new issue in a Huly project. Omit parentIssue for a native top-level issue, or specify parentIssue to create a sub-issue. Optionally set taskType by ID or display name; it is resolved within the target project's project type, and status is validated against that task type's workflow. Use list_task_types or get_project_type to discover valid task types and statuses. Description supports markdown formatting; markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native references, while external URLs stay normal links. Returns the created issue identifier. | | update_issue | Update fields on an existing Huly issue. Optionally set taskType by ID or display name; it is resolved within the target project's project type, and the status is preserved only when valid for the new task type. Use list_task_types or get_project_type to discover valid task types and statuses. Only provided fields are modified. Description updates support markdown; markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native references, while external URLs stay normal links. | | add_issue_label | Add a tag/label to a Huly issue. Creates the tag if it doesn't exist in the project. | | remove_issue_label | Remove a tag/label from a Huly issue. Detaches the label reference; does not delete the label definition. | | delete_issue | Permanently delete a Huly issue. This action cannot be undone. | | move_issue | Move an issue to a new parent (making it a sub-issue), or pass null to restore its native top-level shape. Updates parent/child relationships and sub-issue counts. | | list_issue_templates | List issue templates in a Huly project. Templates define reusable issue configurations. Returns templates sorted by modification date (newest first). | | get_issue_template | Retrieve full details for a Huly issue template including children (sub-task templates). Use this to view template content, default values, and child template IDs. | | create_issue_template | Create a new issue template in a Huly project. Templates define default values for new issues. Template and child descriptions support markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. Optionally include children (sub-task templates) that will become sub-issues when creating issues from this template. Returns the created template ID and title. | | create_issue_from_template | Create a new issue from a template. Applies template defaults, allowing overrides for specific fields. Description override supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. If the template has children (sub-task templates), sub-issues are created automatically unless includeChildren is set to false. Returns the created issue identifier and count of children created. | | update_issue_template | Update fields on an existing Huly issue template. Only provided fields are modified. Description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. | | delete_issue_template | Permanently delete a Huly issue template. This action cannot be undone. | | add_template_child | Add a child (sub-task) template to an issue template. The child defines default values for sub-issues created when using create_issue_from_template. Child description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. Returns the child template ID. | | remove_template_child | Remove a child (sub-task) template from an issue template by its child ID. Get child IDs from get_issue_template response. | | add_issue_relation | Add a relation between two issues. Relation types: 'blocks' (source blocks target β pushes into target's blockedBy), 'is-blocked-by' (source is blocked by target β pushes into source's blockedBy), 'relates-to' (bidirectional link β updates both sides). targetIssue accepts cross-project identifiers like 'OTHER-42'. No-op if the relation already exists. | | remove_issue_relation | Remove a relation between two issues. Mirrors add_issue_relation: 'blocks' pulls from target's blockedBy, 'is-blocked-by' pulls from source's blockedBy, 'relates-to' pulls from both sides. No-op if the relation doesn't exist. | | list_issue_relations | List all relations of an issue. Returns blockedBy (issues blocking this one), blocks (issues this one blocks), relations (bidirectional issue links), and documents (linked documents with title/teamspace). | | link_document_to_issue | Link a Huly document to an issue. The link appears in the issue's Relations panel in the UI. Idempotent: no-op if the document is already linked. Use list_issue_relations to see linked documents. | | unlink_document_from_issue | Remove a document link from an issue. Idempotent: no-op if the document is not linked. | | list_related_issue_targets | List rules that choose the default destination project for related issues. A spaceRule says related issues from one space default to targetProject. A classRule says related issues for one object class default to targetProject. targetProject is a project identifier, or null for no default destination project. | | set_related_issue_target | Set the default destination project for related issues from a space or object class. For space, creates or updates a spaceRule. For objectClass, only updates an existing classRule; this tool never creates classRule targets. Pass targetProject as a project identifier, or null to clear the default destination project. | | delete_related_issue_space_target | Delete the spaceRule that chooses the default destination project for related issues from one space. This only deletes spaceRule targets; classRule deletion is intentionally unsupported because class rules may be model-provided. |
Comments
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | list_comments | List comments on a Huly issue. Returns comments sorted by creation date (oldest first). | | add_comment | Add a comment to a Huly issue. Comment body supports markdown formatting. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. | | update_comment | Update an existing comment on a Huly issue. Comment body supports markdown formatting. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. | | delete_comment | Delete a comment from a Huly issue. This action cannot be undone. |
Milestones
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | list_milestones | List milestones in a Huly project. Returns milestones sorted by modification date (newest first). | | get_milestone | Retrieve full details for a Huly milestone. Use this to view milestone content and metadata. | | create_milestone | Create a new milestone in a Huly project. Description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. Returns the created milestone ID and label. | | update_milestone | Update fields on an existing Huly milestone. Only provided fields are modified. Description supports markdown. Markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs with _class, _id, and label become native Huly references; external URLs and other-workspace browse URLs stay normal links. | | set_issue_milestone | Set or clear the milestone on a Huly issue. Pass null for milestone to clear it. | | delete_milestone | Permanently delete a Huly milestone. This action cannot be undone. |
Documents
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | list_document_snapshots | List version-history snapshots for one Huly document. A snapshot is a saved point-in-time copy from the document's change history. Resolve the document by teamspace plus document title or ID. Returns snapshotId, documentId, teamspaceId, title, parentDocumentId, and timestamps; markdown content is intentionally omitted. Use get_document_snapshot with snapshotId when reading content. | | get_document_snapshot | Get one point-in-time Huly document history snapshot and return markdown content. Resolve the document by teamspace plus document title or ID; resolve the snapshot by snapshotId, exact snapshot title, or exact createdOn timestamp. Prefer snapshotId from list_document_snapshots when titles or dates may collide. Restore is out of scope. | | list_teamspaces | List all Huly document teamspaces. Returns teamspaces sorted by name. Supports filtering by archived status. | | get_teamspace | Get details for a Huly document teamspace including document count. Finds by name or ID, including archived teamspaces. | | create_teamspace | Create a new Huly document teamspace. Idempotent: returns existing teamspace if one with the same name exists. | | update_teamspace | Update fields on an existing Huly document teamspace. Only provided fields are modified. Set description to null to clear it. | | delete_teamspace | Permanently delete a Huly document teamspace. This action cannot be undone. | | list_documents | List documents in a Huly teamspace. Returns documents sorted by modification date (newest first). Each result includes a 'url' field pointing to the document in the Huly web app. Supports searching by title substring (titleSearch) and content (contentSearch). | | get_document | Retrieve full details for a Huly document including markdown content and a 'url' field pointing to the document in the Huly web app. Use this to view document content and metadata. | | create_document | Create a new document in a Huly teamspace. Content is markdown and supports native Mermaid diagrams (``mermaid blocks render interactively in Huly UI). Use markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs for native references; Huly browse links returned in get_document content round-trip as native references. The URL identifies the object; link text is display text; plain issue keys stay text. External URLs stay normal markdown links. Optionally pass parent as a document title or ID to create a nested child document; invalid parents fail instead of silently creating a top-level document. Returns the created document id and a 'url' field pointing to the document in the Huly web app. Use link_document_to_issue only if you also want an issue-document association. | | edit_document | Edit an existing Huly document. You may rename with title and/or edit the body. Body editing has two mutually exclusive modes: (1) content replaces the entire markdown body, (2) old_text + new_text performs exact targeted search-and-replace. Use markdown links to current-workspace Huly browse URLs for native references; Huly browse links returned in get_document content round-trip as native references. The URL identifies the object; link text is display text; plain issue keys stay text. External URLs stay normal markdown links. For targeted replace, multiple matches error unless replace_all is true; empty new_text deletes matched text. Content supports native Mermaid diagrams. Returns a 'url' field pointing to the document in the Huly web app. | | list_inline_comments | List inline comment threads from a Huly document. Extracts comments embedded in document content as ProseMirror marks. Each comment includes the highlighted text and thread ID. Set includeReplies=true to also fetch thread reply messages with sender names. | | delete_document` | Permanently delete a Huly document. This action cannot be undone. |
Storage
| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | upload_file | Upload a file to Huly storage. Provide one source: filePath is resolved on the MCP server host, data is client-local base64 content, and fileUrl is fetched by the MCP server. Returns the blob ID and URL. |
Attachments

Returns attachments sorted by modification date (newest first). | | get_attachment | Retrieve full details for a Huly attachment including download URL. | | add_attachment | Add an attachment to a Huly object. Provide one source: filePath is resolved on the MCP server host, data is client-local base64 content, and fileUrl is fetched by the MCP server. Returns the attachment ID and download URL. | | update_attachment | Update attachment metadata (description, pinned status). | | delete_attachment | Permanently delete an attachment. This action cannot be undone. | | pin_attachment | Pin or unpin an attachment. | | download_attachment | Get download URL for an attachment along with file metadata (name, type, size). | | read_attachment_content | Return a supported image attachment (JPEG, PNG, GIF, or WebP; maximum 4 MiB) as one MCP image content block plus metadata-only structured content. Use this to inspect screenshots or pictures directly. For non-image, unsupported, or oversized files, call download_attachment to get a URL instead. | | add_issue_attachment | Add an attachment to a Huly issue resolved by project and identifier. Provide one source: filePath is resolved on the MCP server host, data is client-local base64 content, and fileUrl is fetched by the MCP server. | | add_document_attachment | Add an attachment to a Huly document resolved by teamspace and title/ID. Provide one source: filePath is resolved on the MCP server host, data is client-local base64 content, and fileUrl is fetched by the MCP server. | | save_attachment | Save/bookmark an attachment for later reference. Idempotent when already saved. | | unsave_attachment | Remove an attachment from saved/bookmarks. | | list_saved_attachments | List saved/bookmarked attachments for the current user. | | list_drawings | List drawings attached to a raw Huly parent object. | | get_drawing | Get a drawing by ID. | | create_drawing | Create a drawing under a raw Huly parent object. | | update_drawing | Update drawing content. Pass null content to clear it. | | delete_drawing | Delete a drawing. This action cannot be undone. |
