Taiga VSCode Extension

Contribution

Hi everyone!

I’ve published a new Taiga MCP Extension for VS Code that brings Taiga projects (cloud or self-hosted) straight into VS Code. Users can browse projects and work with Epics, User Stories, Tasks, and Issues via their IDE. Roadmap includes embedded Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools.

Marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=AntonPavlenko.taiga-mcp-extension
Repo / Issues: https://github.com/antpavlenko/taiga_mcp

Features

  • Trees for Epics, Sprints, Stories, and Issues with filters and quick open.

  • Object editors:

    • Epics (color, flags, status, assignees, tags, description; linked Stories)

    • Stories (roles/points grid, multi-epic select, sprint/status/assignees/tags/due; linked Tasks)

    • Tasks (subject/description/status/assignees/tags/due/blocked; optimistic concurrency)

    • Issues (subject/description/status/assignees/tags/due; Type/Severity/Priority)

    • Robust “closed” detection for visual clarity.

Quick start

  1. Install from the Marketplace link above (or search “Taiga MCP” in the VS Code Extensions view)

  2. In VS Code Settings, set your Taiga base URL:

    {
  "taiga.baseUrl": "https://your-taiga.example" // /api/v1 auto-appended if missing
}

  3. Click Connect button to sign in; the token is stored in VS Code Secret Storage.

  4. Select Project, then browse and edit Epics, Sprints, Stories, and Issues.

Troubleshooting

  • Loading spins forever → check taiga.baseUrl (ensure /api/v1 is reachable).

  • Empty lists → token missing/expired; re-run Connect or Set/Update Token.

  • Can’t see sprints/stories → pick a project in the Projects view.

Roadmap

  • Embedded MCP tools so you can bring Taiga context into AI workflows directly in VS Code.
