Kanbanize tools and triggers

Tools are what your agent can do in Kanbanize through Corsair's MCP server. Triggers are the Kanbanize events a routine can start from.

Boards

  • CreateWrite

    Create a Kanban board or an AI Canvas in a workspace; it starts with a cards workflow and an initiatives workflow

    boards.create

  • DeleteDestructive

    Delete a board with every card, workflow, column and lane on it; it cannot be restored

    boards.delete

  • GetRead-only

    One board with its workspace, type and revision

    boards.get

  • ListRead-only

    List boards, optionally limited to IDs, workspaces or the boards the key’s user is assigned to, with optional workflows and structure

    boards.list

  • UpdateWrite

    Rename a board, change its description, or archive and restore it

    boards.update

Cards

  • CreateWrite

    Create a card in a column and lane, with an owner, priority, deadline, tags, custom fields and subtasks, or from a template

    cards.create

  • DeleteDestructive

    Delete a card with its comments and subtasks; it cannot be restored

    cards.delete

  • GetRead-only

    One card with its description, custom fields, subtasks and linked cards

    cards.get

  • ListRead-only

    Cards filtered by board, workflow, column, lane, owner, state or date, paged and with optional `expand` for custom fields, subtasks and links

    cards.list

  • UpdateWrite

    Change a card’s fields, move it to another column or lane, add or remove tags and custom fields, or archive and discard it

    cards.update

Columns

  • CreateWrite

    Create a main column in a workflow section, or a subcolumn under another column

    columns.create

    columns.delete

Connect Kanbanize to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

  1. 1

    Connect Kanbanize in Corsair

    Add your Kanbanize API key once in Corsair. Corsair stores the credential encrypted and makes the Kanbanize API calls for your agent, so it never goes into a prompt or a config file. Connect Kanbanize

    If your link lets the agent add apps, you can skip this: it gives you a sign-in link the first time it needs Kanbanize. On a ChatGPT personal plan, connect Kanbanize here first.

  2. 2

    Add Corsair's MCP server to your agent

    Every client uses the same address:

    https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcp
    Open Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector, paste the address, then select Connect.

    Codex, Gemini CLI, VS Code, Zed and other clients with OAuth sign-in work the same way. Clients without it, such as GitHub Copilot's coding agent, use a link's own address and an API key. Setup for every client

  3. 3

    Sign in and choose what needs your approval

    Your client opens Corsair to sign in. Pick a link: the apps your agent can use and a mode that decides what it may do without asking. In the default Cautious mode, Kanbanize's read and write operations run right away and its 7 destructive operations wait for your approval. Strict mode asks before every write and refuses destructive operations, and Read mode allows reads only.

FAQ

Install corsair and @corsair-dev/kanbanize, add the Kanbanize plugin, and connect with an API key. Then call methods like corsair.kanbanize.api.boards.create() from your app. Corsair keeps each tenant isolated.

Yes. Kanbanize requires an API key from your Kanbanize account or developer dashboard. Create credentials with access that matches what you automate, then paste them into Corsair or connect through managed auth in Hub.

Yes. One Corsair client can hit Kanbanize, GitHub, Notion, Stripe, and the rest. Trigger Kanbanize from a webhook, push updates to Slack, or chain actions across plugins. Same tenant context across integrations, plain TypeScript.

Teams use Corsair for kanban boards with Kanbanize (now Businessmap) - manage boards, workflows, columns and lanes, create and move cards with their custom fields, subtasks and comments, and read tags, users and the account's request limits. Common builds include sync jobs, admin tooling, and agents that call Kanbanize APIs from your backend.

The SDK is open source. Self-host and you pay Corsair nothing for the integration layer. Hub bills for hosted auth and execution, not per Kanbanize API call. Hub has a generous free tier. For hobby projects you can probably run the whole thing on free. Paid plans start to matter with more tenants or heavier traffic.

We maintain @corsair-dev/kanbanize in the open repo. When Kanbanize ships API changes, upgrade the package. Your call sites stay typed. You should not need to rewrite the integration layer each time.

No. Corsair does not read your Kanbanize data or hold individual access credentials. Credentials stay in your database. API calls run on your instance. We do not store Kanbanize data on your behalf.

Yes. Add https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcp as a custom connector or MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Codex or any client that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in, then sign in to Corsair. On ChatGPT personal plans, custom servers currently get read tools only.

Yes. Put Kanbanize on a link in Strict mode and every write waits for your approval, while destructive actions are refused. The default Cautious mode asks only before the 7 destructive Kanbanize operations. You can change a link's mode at hub.corsair.dev/me.
