Kitchen.co MCP (Unofficial)

Unofficial community extension by Dimy Osman.

Not affiliated with Kitchen.co. This is not an official Kitchen.co product. It is not endorsed, sponsored, or approved by Kitchen.co, 2create.io, or their affiliates. “Kitchen” / “Kitchen.co” identify the third-party API only — no partnership or rights are implied.

Connects IDE to your Kitchen.co workspace so the agent can read and update that work from the editor.

Uses the public Kitchen API and MCP. You supply your own workspace URL and API token. This extension does not provide Kitchen accounts or Kitchen.co support.

Install

Recommended — Extensions marketplace

Open Extensions in Cursor (or another Open VSX–compatible editor).
Search for Kitchen.co MCP (Unofficial) or dimy-osman.kitchen-co-mcp.
Click Install.

Listings:

After install

Acknowledge the one-time unofficial notice (first run only).
Command Palette → Kitchen.co MCP: Add Profile.
Enter a profile name, your workspace URL (or slug), and API token from Kitchen → Settings → Developer → API Token.
Optional: List Profiles to confirm the profile is ready (durable mcp.json: yes).

Tokens stay on your machine (OS keychain + encrypted vault). They are never written into mcp.json as plaintext.

Alternative — Install from VSIX

If you prefer a local package: download a release VSIX from GitHub, or build one (see Development), then Extensions → ⋯ → Install from VSIX….

What you can do

Once a profile is connected, agents can use the public Kitchen API for that workspace.

Cursor only loads hot-path named tools (schemas). Read MCP resource kitchen://api-index for the compact public-path map, then kitchen_request. Resource kitchen://capabilities (or tool kitchen_capabilities) is the full catalog — only if the index is missing or a path fails. Resource kitchen://invoice-defaults is the invoice Design & Details rule: leave header, memo, and footer off unless the user asked. Resources are shipped in this extension, not fetched live from Kitchen.

Hot-path named tools (Bearer /api only):

Folders — list, get, children, create (including clone from a template)
Boards / lists / labels — list boards, list columns, list labels, add a label to a task
Tasks — list, get, create, update, move
Members / clients — list members, list/get clients
Invoices — list, get, create. Do not set header, memo, or footer unless asked; Kitchen uses Settings → Invoices → Design & Details
Conversations / messages — list/get conversation, list/get/create message
Meta — kitchen_whoami, kitchen_request, kitchen_capabilities

Other documented public paths (archive, memberships, companies, webhooks, files, docs, embeds, milestones, …) stay available via kitchen_request using kitchen://api-index. Query arrays serialize as key[]=value.

Not on the public API (so not in MCP): client billing-profile CRUD, company user attach, invoice finalize/send, quotes, proposals. Do not scrape cookies. Deprecated Cards / legacy Attachments are skipped on purpose.

Permissions: visibility is private, internal, or shared. Internal can take a default team role. Shared includes clients.

See SECURITY.md for how credentials are stored and what protections apply.
