# Connect Asana with Unblocked to give AI agents project context URL: https://getunblocked.com/integrations/asana/ Unblocked integrates with Asana to give AI coding agents and developers cited context from your projects, tasks, and comments — reconciled with your code, pull requests, and docs. --- ## Asana integration details - **Category:** Issue trackers - **Indexed data:** projects, tasks, comments - **Supported products:** Asana - **Works with:** Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex, VS Code — via one MCP server connection - **Content reviewed:** July 20, 2026 - **Documentation:** - **Website:** ## What the Asana integration adds Asana records the cross-functional plan around engineering work, including task ownership, project updates, requirements, and follow-up discussion. Unblocked makes selected projects usable as cited context when an agent needs the business or delivery reasoning behind a code change. Asana context is reconciled with your code, pull requests, and docs, so an agent can connect the task that requested a change to the code and discussion behind it. Once connected, any MCP-compatible coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex — can pull this context through a single Unblocked MCP server connection. ### What you get - **Projects, tasks, and comments** — Unblocked indexes the projects, tasks, and comments from your selected workspace and cites the task it used, with its project name attached. - **Private project linking** — Team members can add their own private projects by linking their Asana account, so relevant work is included without over-sharing. - **Workspace and project scoping** — Choose a workspace and the specific projects to index to match how your team plans its work. - **Cross-source synthesis** — Asana tasks are combined with your code, pull requests, docs, and Slack threads into a single knowledge graph. ## How to connect Asana to Unblocked Prerequisites: - An Unblocked account (free to start). - An Asana account with access to the workspace and projects you want to index. - An MCP-compatible coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) to use the context in your editor. ### Step 1: Connect Asana to Unblocked 1. In Unblocked, go to Settings → Data Sources → Connect another data source, and under Project management select Asana. 2. Sign in to Asana and grant access to Unblocked. 3. Select the workspace to index, then choose the projects. 4. Click Save Settings — Unblocked begins referencing those projects in its answers. See the complete setup guide, screenshots, and troubleshooting: ### Step 2: Install the Unblocked MCP server On macOS, one command auto-detects and configures your supported agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, Codex, VS Code): ```bash curl -fsSL https://getunblocked.com/install-mcp.sh | bash ``` The install script supports macOS only. On Windows or Linux, add the server manually using the configuration below, or follow the manual install guide: Claude Code — add the remote server, then run /mcp in Claude Code, select unblocked, and log in via OAuth: ```bash claude mcp add -s user --transport http unblocked https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse ``` Cursor — open View: Open MCP Settings → Add Custom MCP, add the server, then click Connect to authenticate via OAuth: ```json { "mcpServers": { "unblocked": { "url": "https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse" } } } ``` Any MCP-compatible client (Windsurf, Codex, VS Code, Claude Desktop, and others) can connect to the remote server with OAuth: `https://getunblocked.com/api/mcpsse` ## Connect Asana to Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI agents To give Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, or another MCP-compatible AI coding agent access to Asana context, connect Asana to Unblocked and add the single Unblocked MCP server to your agent. Unblocked acts as the MCP context layer for your Asana data, searching projects, tasks, comments alongside your other connected sources and returning cited results through these tools: - **`context_research`** — Multi-source research across your Asana projects, tasks, and comments, plus your code, pull requests, and other connected sources. Returns a synthesized answer with citations back to the task it used. - **`context_get_urls`** — Fetches the full content behind an Asana task URL your agent encounters — plus GitHub, Jira, Linear, Confluence, Slack, and more. - **`research_task`** — Investigates a broader question across your Asana projects, tasks, code, pull requests, docs, and Slack together, synthesizing a research brief instead of a single citation — useful when you don’t know which task to start from. ## Questions to ask an AI agent about Asana Questions you (or your agent) can ask Unblocked about your Asana data: - "Which Asana task requested the new export feature?" - "What is the status of the tasks in the current sprint project?" - "What did the comments on this task decide about scope?" - "Which tasks are assigned for the upcoming release?" ## Related integrations - [Jira](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/jira/) — Issues and projects from Jira Cloud and Data Center — with sprint-aware answers that connect tickets to the code and PRs behind them. - [Linear](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/linear/) — Issues from the Linear teams you select, indexed so answers can trace a feature or bug from ticket to the code that shipped it. - [Confluence](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/confluence/) — Pages and blog posts from the Confluence spaces you select — including rendered macro content — indexed and cited in answers. - [Slack](https://getunblocked.com/integrations/slack/) — Public and private channels and threads — indexed with access permissions respected, plus in-Slack Q&A by @mentioning Unblocked. ## Get started with Unblocked - Start a free trial: - Pricing: - Documentation: - All integrations:
