Toggl MCP Server

Track time, manage tasks, and run reports from your AI assistant

The Toggl MCP server connects AI tools that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to your Toggl workspace.

Use it to log time, manage projects and tasks, and pull reports without leaving Claude, Codex, Cursor, or another MCP-compatible AI assistant

Time, tasks, and reports in your AI assitants

Use the Toggl MCP server to connect your favorite AI tools to your workspace's time, task, project, and report data. It's available on all plans, including the free one.

Time tracking in chat

Start, stop, and log hours without leaving your AI assistant. Ask Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex to start a timer on a task or log billable hours with a description, all in natural language, without leaving your AI tools.

You can also use the CLI from your terminal. It exposes the same capabilities, which is useful for scripts, automation, and other command-line workflows.

Planned versus tracked time

Have your AI assistant use your time tracking data to see where work hours differ from your plan.

‍

Once the MCP is connected, it's easy to compare planned time, tracked time, and capacity, so you can make adjustments on time.

‍

Using natural language makes the process quick and you can feed the data into your future plans and reports.

Capture, create, and analyze tasks and projects

Turn a list of ideas from the chat into tasks in a project, then update them as work moves.

‍

Create, edit, archive, or delete tasks and projects, and start projects from templates.

‍

Analyze tasks directly in your AI assistant or visually in Toggl using Kanban Boards, Gantt Charts, Lists, or a Calendar view.

Internal and client reports, in natural language

Get answers from your reports without having to download and update spreadsheets.

‍

Ask for hours by project, client, or person, or for workload and profitability, and get a table back in the chat.

‍

Build reports directly inside your AI tools or try Toggl's reporting for fully customized charts and reports with visuals, filters, and AND/OR logic.

Deliver work profitably
Can my AI assistant see or change Toggl data it shouldn’t?
No. It works strictly within your permissions.
The Toggl MCP server signs in as you, so the assistant sees and does only what your role and plan allow in Toggl. Every create, update, or delete takes two steps: the server returns a summary of the change and runs it only when the request comes back with a one-time confirmation.

With Toggl, you can track your time right away and view your tracked time entries, and worry about the details later. It also has a generous free tier of service that gives you access to all its apps (Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux, Web, and browser extensions).

Testimonial
Learning to use Toggl is a breeze, because it's highly intuitive and simple. It ushers you along quickly so that you get back to work right away and start tracking your time immediately. The free plan is generous and could be more than adequate for solo workers or even small groups of up to five people with light needs.

Testimonial
It's not one of those apps where you need to spend half a day figuring out how to actually use it: sessions can be started as they happen or added later, and once the app has got a feel for your schedule and how you work, it'll even make suggestions about what you want to track next.

FAQs

What is the Toggl MCP server?

The Toggl MCP server is Toggl’s official Model Context Protocol server. It lets AI assistants such as Claude, Cursor, and Codex read and update tasks, projects, time entries, and reports in our time tracking software. It's listed in the official MCP Registry.

‍

Learn more in the official Toggl MCP documentation.

Which AI assistants work with the Toggl MCP server?

Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, and other assistants that support MCP. The server runs on your computer (it needs Node.js), so it works with desktop and editor apps.

Is the Toggl MCP server free?

Yes. The MCP server and CLI are on the free plan. Access matches your plan in the web app, with no separate MCP limit, so paid features such as timesheet approvals and workload reports work on the plans that include them.

Does the Toggl MCP server track time automatically?

No. The assistant starts, stops, or logs time only when you ask, and nothing is recorded in the background. Entries it creates appear in Toggl like any other time entry.
