Atlas MCP Server

Atlas MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Atlas directly instead of describing what you should do. ATLAS (Adaptive Task & Logic Automation System): An MCP server enabling LLM agents to manage projects, tasks, and knowledge via a Neo4j-backed, three-tier architecture. Facilitates complex workflow automation and project management through.

What you get

ATLAS implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling standardized communication between LLMs and external systems through:

• Dependency & Relationship Handling: Automatically validate and track inter-project dependencies. |
• Prioritization & Categorization: Assign priority levels and categorize tasks with tags for better organization
• Dependency Tracking: Establish task dependencies to create structured workflows. |
• Domain Categorization: Organize knowledge by domain and tags for easy retrieval
• Citation Support: Track sources and references for knowledge items. |
• Advanced Search & Scalability: Perform property-based searches with fuzzy matching and wildcards while maintaining high performance. |

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

Configuration and credentials

You will need 8 environment variables: NEO4J_URI, NEO4J_USER, NEO4J_PASSWORD, MCP_LOG_LEVEL, MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE, MCP_HTTP_PORT, MCP_HTTP_HOST, MCP_AUTH_SECRET_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Before you rely on it

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the atlas mcp server does with a few real requests.

Choosing this one

Among the planning and project tracking options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. It is maintained by cyanheads; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
