Task management protocol for solo developers and AI coding agents with 2-gateway CQRS pattern
Task management protocol for solo developers and AI coding agents with 2-gateway CQRS pattern. Exposed over MCP by the cleo mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
Every developer who has ever returned to a project after weeks away and found only ruins knows the wound CLEO was built to heal. The agents are powerful. But power without memory is chaos. Brilliance without continuity is waste. CLEO is the companion that remembers where you left off — the one who keeps the thread when life pulls you away.
CLEO is built for the developers who build after the world goes quiet — the ones carrying six unfinished ideas and the stubborn belief that this next session might be the one where everything clicks. It solves the coordination crisis of working with multiple AI agents across complex projects by giving them something they've never had: structure, memory, and a lifecycle that survives interruption.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Installation — The Installation tool exposed by this serverPrerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this server@cleocode/cleo on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
Plenty of planning and project tracking servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. CLEO's toolset — Installation, Prerequisites — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by kryptobaseddev; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Your workspace, on speaking terms with AI — search, read and write Notion pages and databases.
Issue tracking at the speed of conversation — Linear's official hosted server with OAuth and zero install.
Search and read your Drive — Docs, Sheets and files become context your assistant can actually use.
Your assistant inside the workspace — read channels, search history, post messages and tame the noise.
Metabase ships its own MCP endpoint — search your BI content, build and run queries, and save questions and dashboards without leaving the chat.
Stop letting your assistant hallucinate n8n node parameters — this server hands it the real schemas, templates and validation.
