The task manager for Warp

Give Warp's Agent Mode a real task queue. TaskPrio is MCP-native — add it under Settings → Agents → MCP servers and Warp pulls the highest-priority task with get_next_task, works it, reports a result, and grabs the next one. You set the order; it runs the list on autopilot — and you watch it work in a live cockpit.

Connect in three steps

1. Open the board, then the sidebar foot, and Copy token. 2. Download the bundled server. 3. Add it in Warp:

# download the MCP server
curl -fsSL https://taskprio.com/mcp-server.js -o ~/.taskprio-mcp.js

Then in Warp open Settings → Agents → MCP servers → + Add, choose a command-based (CLI) server, and paste this config — Warp accepts the same JSON any MCP client uses:

{
  "command": "node",
  "args": ["/Users/you/.taskprio-mcp.js"],
  "env": {
    "PROMPTPRIO_API_TOKEN": "pp_your_token",
    "PROMPTPRIO_API_URL": "https://taskprio.com"
  }
}

Warp starts the server and the tools are live. Prefer the terminal? Pass it inline with oz agent run --mcp '<that JSON>', or point --mcp at a file. (Full details in the docs.)

The autopilot loop

Once connected, point Warp's Agent Mode at your queue and it runs top to bottom — auto-scoping to the project your terminal is in (it reads the working directory, no manual setup):

1. get_next_task     → top unblocked task + merged project context
2. (Warp does the work in your repo)
3. complete_task     → short result, logged as an audit trail
4. repeat            → until the queue returns no task

Hit a blocker? Warp calls flag_needs_human and moves on, so one stuck task never stalls the whole run.

Why a queue beats a prompt dump

• One priority order — Warp always knows the single next thing, even across 1,000+ tasks and many projects.
• Context comes with the task — each task carries its project's merged instructions, so you stop re-pasting setup into the agent.
• Parallelise across sessions (Pro) — run up to 5 Warp Agent Mode sessions on the same project and the queue divides itself: each session leases the next unclaimed task, so five work the top five in parallel — no partitioning, no two agents on one task.
• You stay in control — capture tasks in the Inbox, rank what matters, and Warp only works what you've ranked.

Frequently asked questions

Does Warp support TaskPrio's MCP server?

Yes. Warp's Agent Mode supports MCP servers. Add TaskPrio under Settings → Agents → MCP servers as a command-based server (node ~/.taskprio-mcp.js) — Warp accepts configs pasted from any MCP client — and Agent Mode gains TaskPrio's tools.

How do I give Warp a task queue?

Download the MCP server, add it in Settings → Agents → MCP servers with the env var PROMPTPRIO_API_TOKEN, and Warp can call get_next_task, complete_task and friends to pull from and complete tasks in your TaskPrio queue. From the CLI, oz agent run --mcp works too.

Can Warp work tasks on autopilot?

Yes — it loops get_next_task → work → complete_task until the queue is empty, a task is blocked, or you stop it.

Is it free?

Yes. Free includes 1 MCP session and 50 completions/day; Pro ($10/mo) gives 5 sessions and unlimited completions.
