Agentic Task System (ATS) MCP server

Your task manager is the best agent memory you're not using.

ats is an MCP server and CLI that keeps AI-agent context in the task systems you already maintain — TickTick, Taskmaster, Beads, Obsidian, Notion, GitHub, Airtable, Google, or several at once through the composite adapter. It retrieves relevant tasks, notes, decisions, and runbooks with provenance, then can write results back when the active adapter supports writes. Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP client.

Adapter, not migration. Your task app, repository, or vault remains authoritative. ATS maps that source into a common task contract; optional caches and vector indexes improve retrieval but never become a second record that people must edit. It is task-first: the task is the spine, while supporting material such as GitHub issues and Notion specs is retrieved as context behind it.

Two layers, one CLI: tasks and a knowledge graph. The task layer is record-based on purpose — every entry lives in one backend's projects and fields, and that backend stays authoritative. A record-based layer structurally cannot hold the other thing agents accumulate: durable knowledge written from any source, about mixed subjects, into one space. The knowledge-graph layer — ats kg (kg = knowledge graph) — is ATS's answer to exactly that: subject–predicate–object facts with provenance and temporal validity, proposed by agents from anywhere (a call, a task, a repo, a chat), ratified by a human, and queried in one place no matter which backend the surrounding work lives in. The built-in store is embedded and dependency-free. For a dedicated graph engine, the recommended pairing is Graphiti as the graph database server and LadybugDB as the embedded graph database: ats kg export --cypher emits a LadybugDB-loadable script (--dialect neo4j|falkordb for the server engines, re-runnable), and ats kg export --graphiti emits episode JSONL with the provenance record for a Graphiti ingest pipeline.

One ats find across GitHub + Notion + TickTick. ATS ranks the available retrieval branches with RRF and retains result provenance.

Architecture and trust boundaries

ATS separates the authoritative record from the retrieval machinery around it:
