Notes and caveats
- Works on all Trello plans.
- Creating Planner focus time needs Premium or Enterprise, and custom fields need Standard, Premium or Enterprise.
- Separate from the Atlassian Rovo MCP server (Trello data is not available through Rovo MCP yet) but uses the same admin controls in Atlassian Administration; Enterprise admins can turn off read_trello or write_trello.
- OAuth 2.0 only, with no API token auth.
- The vendor documents no transport name; it is listed as streamable-http based on the Cursor deeplink config type http.
- The GitHub repo is a docs and agent-skill repo for the hosted server, not server source, and its README is older than the support page (one workspace per connection versus multi-workspace now).
- Tool names come from the official trello-use skill in that repo; the tools are action-dispatched.
- The vendor documents only a Cursor deeplink and the bare server URL; there are no snippets for other clients.
- No release log found.
