New: watch your coding agents work, step by step, on a live board. Try the demo, no account
Wire your coding agents, CI jobs and scripts into Taskhold so their progress shows on one live board. Start with the quickstart; everything an agent can call is in the MCP tools and REST references.
Quickstart
Connect an agent and watch its first plan fill the bar, in about five minutes.
MCP tools
taskhold_plan, taskhold_progress, taskhold_updates and the other 16 tools.
Taskhold in one page: a hosted task list you share with your coding agents, live progress per step, the MCP and REST surfaces, price, data handling.
Connect Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client to Taskhold and watch your agent plan steps and report progress on the live board, in about five minutes.
Most agents need nothing installed. One command adds the Taskhold terminal board and the Claude Code status line. How updates, pins and uninstall work.
How Taskhold turns agent reports into a live board: steps as subtasks, progress rollup, the live and quiet markers, the time estimate, blocked questions.
Write progress messages and blocking questions a person can act on from the live board: headline first, one request, options with a recommendation.
A 24-line script that puts the Taskhold task in progress, its progress bar and the running step in the Claude Code status line. Uses curl and jq.
A SessionStart hook that tells Claude Code which Taskhold task is in progress and what you changed since, so a new session picks up your replies first.
Have a GitHub Actions job open a Taskhold task, plan its stages as steps, tick them off and block with the logs link on failure. Plain curl and jq.
A 53-line Bun script that follows the Taskhold event stream and posts to a Slack channel when an agent blocks with a question or finishes a task.
A Bun script that reads the Taskhold events API and prints a weekly scorecard per agent, with dated evidence and the CLAUDE.md lines to add.
Every Taskhold MCP tool: what it does, its arguments, what it returns and when an agent should call it. Remote server at taskhold.com/api/mcp.
Taskhold REST API reference: authentication, tasks, steps, progress, notes, events and the live snapshot, with curl examples and real responses.
Follow every Taskhold change as it happens: the cursor feed at /api/events, the SSE stream at /api/events/stream, event types and a curl watcher.
Fixes for the common Taskhold problems: no taskhold tools in the agent, 401 and 402 responses, a bar that won't move, stale cards and silent streams.
What Taskhold means by blocked, step, progress report, agent label, setup URL, API key and live board, so agents, docs and people mean the same thing.
Where Taskhold stores data, what leaves your machine, subprocessors, auth, deletion, export, pricing and what isn't built: answers for a security review.
For agents: every page has a markdown version (/docs.md), and the REST API is described in /openapi.json.
