Frequently asked questions

Which AI tools does PlanIT work with?

PlanIT works with any MCP-compatible AI tool. Supported clients include Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code (with AI extensions), Codex, and Antigravity. If your tool supports MCP servers, PlanIT connects to it.

How long does it take to set up MCP?

Under 60 seconds. Create a Personal Access Token in PlanIT settings, copy the config block for your AI tool, paste it into the right file, and restart your AI client. That's it.

What can I do with PlanIT through my AI tool?

Create and update issues, query your backlog, check sprint status, list projects, get your current iteration, search issues full-text, and update your profile — all without leaving your AI tool. PlanIT exposes 13 MCP tools.

Does MCP require a paid plan?

Yes. MCP access requires PlanIT Pro (€29/month) or higher. The Free plan includes all core features for teams up to 3 members, but AI tool integration is a Pro feature.

Does PlanIT work with Codex?

Yes. Add the PlanIT MCP server to your ~/.codex/config.yaml using the YAML format shown in the setup guide above. Codex will then have full access to your PlanIT issues, sprints, and projects.

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

MCP is an open standard created by Anthropic that lets AI tools read from and write to external services. Think of it as a USB-C port for AI integrations: one standard that works across Claude, Cursor, Codex, Antigravity, and any other MCP-compatible tool.

Is Node.js required?

Yes. The PlanIT MCP server runs via npx, which requires Node.js 18 or higher. Install it from nodejs.org — it takes about 2 minutes and is a one-time setup.
