Project COR MCP sunucusu

⬡ COR MCP Server

61 MCP tools for Project COR — the project management platform for creative and professional teams.

Exposes the complete COR REST API surface as MCP tools — usable from any MCP-compatible client: Hermes Agent, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, Cline, Windsurf, and more.

---

✨ Features

• 61 MCP tools — full CRUD for all COR entities across 11 modules
• Dual authentication — pick what suits you:
  • User Credentials (email + password) — quick personal use
  • Client Credentials (API key + client secret) — server-to-server
• Async everywhere — httpx + asyncio, non-blocking I/O
• Dual transport — stdio (default for agents) and sse (HTTP for remote access)
• OAuth token auto-refresh — never worry about expiry mid-session
• Docker support — one-command deployment
• Hermes Agent skill included — see skills/cor-mcp-setup/
• 24 passing tests — fully mocked, no live credentials required

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.11+
• uv (recommended) or pip
• COR account with credentials

Install & Run

# Clone
git clone https://github.com/fxckcode/mcp-cor.git
cd mcp-cor

# Install with uv (recommended)
uv sync

# Or with pip
pip install -e .

Configure

cp .env.example .env

Then choose one auth mode in .env:

Mode A — Email + Password (recommended for personal use)

COR_EMAIL=your.email@company.com
COR_PASSWORD=your_password
COR_API_URL=https://api.projectcor.com/v1

Mode B — API Key + Client Secret (for server-to-server)

COR_API_KEY=your_api_key
COR_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret
COR_API_URL=https://api.projectcor.com/v1

The server auto-detects which mode you configured. Email/password takes priority when both are set.

Run

# stdio transport (default — for MCP agents)
uv run cor-mcp-server

# SSE/HTTP transport (for remote access)
uv run cor-mcp-server --transport sse --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

# Verbose logging
uv run cor-mcp-server --verbose

---

🔐 Authentication

Two modes supported. The server auto-detects which to use.

User Credentials (Mode A)

POST https://api.projectcor.com/v1/auth/login
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

email=user@corp.com&password=*****

Returns JWT access_token + refresh_token. Auto-refresh built in.

Client Credentials (Mode B)

POST https://api.projectcor.com/v1/oauth/token?grant_type=client_credentials
Authorization: Basic base64(api_key:client_secret)

Returns access_token (1-hour TTL). Cached and auto-refreshed with a 60-second safety margin.

🔌 Connecting from MCP Clients

Add to ~/.hermes/config.yaml:

mcp_servers:
  cor:
    command: "uv"
    args: ["run", "--directory", "/path/to/cor-mcp-server", "python", "-m", "cor_mcp_server"]
    env:
      COR_EMAIL: "your.email@company.com"
      COR_PASSWORD: "your_password"
      COR_API_URL: "https://api.projectcor.com/v1"
    timeout: 180
    connect_timeout: 60

Then restart or run /reload-mcp.

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cor": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["run", "--directory", "/path/to/cor-mcp-server", "python", "-m", "cor_mcp_server"],
      "env": {
        "COR_EMAIL": "your.email@company.com",
        "COR_PASSWORD": "your_password",
        "COR_API_URL": "https://api.projectcor.com/v1"
      }
    }
  }
}

In MCP Servers settings, add:

• Name: COR
• Type: command
• Command: uv run --directory /path/to/cor-mcp-server python -m cor_mcp_server
• Environment variables: COR_EMAIL, COR_PASSWORD, COR_API_URL

Docker

docker build -t cor-mcp-server .

# stdio mode
docker run -i --rm \
  -e COR_EMAIL=your@email.com \
  -e COR_PASSWORD=your_password \
  -e COR_API_URL=https://api.projectcor.com/v1 \
  cor-mcp-server

Adding New Tools

To add a new tool to the COR MCP Server:

1. Create or edit a tool module in cor_mcp_server/tools/ (e.g., reports.py).

2. Write an async function with the cor_ prefix pattern:

   from ..context import get_client
   
   async def cor_list_reports(page: int = 1, per_page: int = 20) -> str:
       """List reports.
   
       Args:
           page: Page number (default: 1)
           per_page: Results per page (default: 20)
       """
       client = get_client()
       data = await client.get("/reports", page=page, per_page=per_page)
       import json
       return json.dumps(data, indent=2, ensure_ascii=False, default=str)
   

3. Register the tool in cor_mcp_server/server.py:

   from .tools import reports as _reports
   
   mcp.tool(
       name="cor_list_reports",
       description=_reports.cor_list_reports.__doc__,
   )(_reports.cor_list_reports)
   

4. Add tests in tests/test_tools.py following the existing patterns (import assertion + tool count update).

5. Update the tool count in tests/test_tools.py if needed.

The get_client() function provides a fully-authenticated CORClient instance with automatic Bearer token handling. All tools return JSON strings for consistent serialization.

Test Structure

Tests are in tests/test_tools.py and cover:

• TestTokenStore — Thread-safe token caching, expiry, and refresh logic
• TestCORClient — HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), pagination, auth headers
• TestToolFunctions — Import verification for all 61 tool functions across 11 modules
• TestServerCreation — Server factory creates a valid FastMCP instance

All tests use mocking — no live COR credentials required to run them.
