An MCP server for breaking down complex tasks into manageable pieces with structured JSON storage
Divide And Conquer MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. An MCP server for breaking down complex tasks into manageable pieces with structured JSON storage.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI agents to break down complex tasks into manageable pieces using a structured JSON format.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Once Divide And Conquer is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
initialize_task — Creates a new task with the specified description and optional initial checklist itemsupdate_task_description — The update_task_description tool exposed by this serverupdate_context — The update_context tool exposed by this serveradd_checklist_item — The add_checklist_item tool exposed by this serverupdate_checklist_item — The update_checklist_item tool exposed by this servermark_task_done — The mark_task_done tool exposed by this servermark_task_undone — The mark_task_undone tool exposed by this serverremove_checklist_item — The remove_checklist_item tool exposed by this serverreorder_checklist_item — The reorder_checklist_item tool exposed by this serveradd_note — The add_note tool exposed by this serveradd_resource — The add_resource tool exposed by this serverupdate_metadata — The update_metadata tool exposed by this serverThis sits in the planning and project tracking group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Divide And Conquer's toolset — initialize_task, update_task_description, update_context and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by landicefu; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
