https://mcp.basecamp.com/mcpNotes and caveats
- Included with every Basecamp account at no extra cost; the AI client may need a paid plan to add connectors.
- During OAuth approval the user picks Read-only access or Full access and one Basecamp account; switching accounts requires reconnecting.
- Docs list capability areas (projects, to-dos, message boards, card tables, calendar, docs and files, Campfire and Pings, check-ins, people, search and reports) but not individual tool names.
- Documented clients: ChatGPT (developer mode), Claude, Cursor, Grok, Claude Code, VS Code.
- The generic value is the server URL the docs say to paste, not a config block.
