# MCP Support
Vibe Kanban ships with an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, allowing you to manage projects and tasks from any coding agent, including coding agents started by vibe-kanban itself.
## Setting Up MCP Integration
### Option 1: Using the Web Interface
This works if you're adding the Vibe Kanban MCP server to any [supported coding agent](/docs/supported-coding-agents).
1. Navigate to the "MCP Servers" page in Vibe Kanban
2. Click the `Add Vibe-Kanban MCP` button
3. Click the `Save Settings` button

### Option 2: Manual Configuration
You can manually add the MCP server to your coding agent's configuration. Add the following configuration to your agent's MCP servers configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vibe_kanban": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "vibe-kanban", "--mcp"]
}
}
}
```
## Using MCP with Coding Agents
Once you have the MCP server configured, you can leverage it to streamline your project planning workflow:
1. **Plan Your Work**: Describe a large feature or project to your coding agent
2. **Request Task Creation**: At the end of your task description, simply add "then turn this plan into tasks"
3. **Automatic Task Generation**: Your coding agent will use the Vibe Kanban MCP server to automatically create structured tasks in your project
## Example Usage
```
I need to build a user authentication system with the following features:
- User registration with email validation
- Login/logout functionality
- Password reset capability
- Session management
- Protected routes
Then turn this plan into tasks.
```
The coding agent will break this down into individual tasks and add them to your Vibe Kanban project automatically.
