Show HN: MCP Project Manager – Hierarchical task management for AI assistants

1 Croffasia 0 7/16/2025, 12:47:55 PM github.com ↗

I built this after getting frustrated with AI assistants generating code chaotically without project context.

MCP Project Manager integrates with Claude, Cursor, VS Code + Copilot via Model Context Protocol to give AI assistants structured understanding of your project hierarchy (Ideas → Epics → Tasks).

Key features: - AI-powered task decomposition with approval workflow - Natural language interface - no new commands to learn - Works with any MCP-compatible tool - SQLite storage, zero external dependencies - Interactive CLI dashboard for project visualization

Ready to use: `npx mcp-project-manager`

The AI gains project context automatically while you work in familiar natural language. Instead of random code generation, it understands what you're building and helps break down complex features into manageable tasks.

Built with TypeScript, uses MCP SDK 1.15.1. Stores everything locally in SQLite.
