Use case overview

The author started building an MCP server so Claude Code can create and read issues on Tangled.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    While auditing his atproto identity visualization tool, the author wanted to do project management on code hosted at Tangled. Working with Claude, he built a Tangled MCP server and registered it in Anthropic's MCP registry. It has a connection-status resource, a branch-listing tool, and issue tools to create, update, delete and list. Repos are given as owner/repo.

  2. How it went

    It covers only a few operations so far, but it did what he needed for creating and reading issues. Pull request support looks blocked by architectural limits, at least for mutations.

  3. Worth knowing

    Only branches and issues are supported. The author hasn't yet confirmed whether PR mutations can be done at all. The README has usage instructions.

Example prompts

Try with Claude Code
Help me build an MCP server in [language] that lets you create and read issues on [issue tracker or code host, e.g. Tangled] using [API or auth method]. Start with two tools, create_issue and list_issues, and write a short README explaining how to register it with Claude Code. Finish when you can list issues from my repo [repo name], and ask me before creating any real test issue.
