Hey ya'll, I included @mention support in my original ClickUp MCP repo, and wondered if it worked for Super Agents (tested and it currently doesn't). If you could support that in the API it would be wonderful.
Alternative MCP Server to the Official version:

To be able to parse and pull/pull data between different apps and integration on its own from the setup process and everything just asking for authentication. I feel this will allow non-development teams to have better access and control over their systems tools, and the data they work with.

This is a very interesting idea. We are working on what to add next to the MCP and I'm curious: what kind of things would you use this for? I can bring back examples to the team. 🫡

Ivan Villa Well, in some cases, it makes sense to get work done in an AI chat interface, like a Claude project, where our team is doing research, collaborating, and really tweaking an output result with full context. Then, we could pass this ouput directly to a pre-trained Super Agent to complete an action, just like we'd do with a real team member.
For a simple example, let's say I'm working through a problem in Claude, then I realize my solution would make a great blog idea, so I call "Todd" our blog Super Agent via the MCP (maybe there's a super agent skill) to go create a blog for a particular project, which would be easy if it's already in a client project in Claude. Todd would find that project in ClickUp, find the recurring content task, and complete it in the way it's trained to do. Other team departments won't need access to my chat thread since they can communicate directly with Todd on that task for feedback.
This would save me time by eliminating the need to find and add all that context to the task manually.

Derek Cummings That's a great example! The only tricky part is that an agent might take a while to run depending on how intricately you built it, so it won't be able to respond instantly in the conversation.
I think we could at least return a link to the conversation immediately. That way, when you message the Todd agent, we can respond with: "Successfully messaged the Todd agent. To follow up or see the chat, visit clickup.com/[link-to-todd-chat]"

Ivan Villa Found myself looking for this functionality again today. It would be nice to bring some of my super agents or Brain GPT into my VS code environment or be able to be load into my website to handle various things like fixing bug or be our on site chat bubble and bring in the sales/support chats into clickup as tasks. We could do all sorts I have tons of ideas honesty.
