# Productive.io MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Productive.io and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 657 Productive.io actions (244 reads, 334 writes and 79 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Productive.io credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Productive.io's limits and records every call.

[Connect Productive.io free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing)

100,000 free calls a month. No card, no email, no password: press Start a free sandbox on the next screen and keep the key it shows you.

`claude mcp add --transport http actionlake https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`

the first call

```
do {
  action: "productive.tasks.list",
  intent: "check which Productive.io account is connected"
}
# Get tasks · read · 1 upstream call
```

- 657 actions in one signed file
- 244 read look, never change
- 334 write create and update
- 79 wait for a yes destructive, confirmed first

Set up

## Connect Productive.io in three steps.

1. 01
   ### Add actionlake to Claude.
   Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.
   `https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp`
2. 02
   ### Connect Productive.io.
   Header credentials. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key.
   - `organization_id` Productive organization ID (Settings > API integrations, shown beside your tokens)
   - `api_token` Productive API token (Settings > API integrations > Generate new token; choose read-only or full access)
   ```
   account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "productive" }
   # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you
   ```
3. 03
   ### Make the first call. Check before a write.
   Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, `check` validates the call and prices it, for free.
   ```
   do    { action: "productive.tasks.list" }
   # get tasks · read · 1 upstream call
   check { action: "productive.tasks.create", input: { … } }
   # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent
   ```

Top actions

## The Productive.io API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 71 of Productive.io's 71 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Try it

## Prompts to paste into Claude.

Each one names the Productive.io actions it will call, so you know what it reads and what it changes before you send it.

1. Read read
   Which Productive.io invoices are more than 30 days overdue? Group them by customer with the total owed.
   calls `productive.invoices.list`
2. Write write
   Create a task in Productive.io. Show me exactly what you will send before you save it.
   calls `productive.tasks.create`
3. Across systems read
   Which Productive.io companies have invoices in NetSuite, and how many each?
   calls `productive.companies.list` `netsuite.views.invoices`

Across your systems

## Productive.io, joined to the rest of your business.

One `ask` fetches from Productive.io and another system, joins the rows on the same customer on our side, and hands your agent the answer, not every row.

- Which Productive.io companies have invoices in NetSuite, and how many each?
  `productive.companies.list` + `netsuite.views.invoices`, on `crm.company` · [NetSuite](https://actionlake.com/connectors/netsuite)
- Which Productive.io companies have tickets in HubSpot CRM, and how many each?
  `productive.companies.list` + `hubspot_crm.tickets.list`, on `crm.company` · [HubSpot CRM](https://actionlake.com/connectors/hubspot-crm)

Also mapped by other connectors `identity.user` **517** `crm.company` **227** `crm.contact` **192** `work.project` **116** `work.task` **105** `finance.invoice` **91** `crm.deal` **43** `work.time_entry` **40**

ask

```
ask {
  intent: "which Productive.io companies have invoices in NetSuite, and how many each",
  steps: [
    { action: "productive.companies.list", as: "co", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { action: "netsuite.views.invoices", as: "inv", input: {}, limit: 100, max_pages: 5 },
    { join: {
        left: "co",
        right: "inv",
        on: "crm.company",
        group_by: "co.name",
        select: ["co.name", "count(inv.id) as invoices"]
    } }
  ]
}
```

Example. Run it through check first: it validates the steps and prices them, and it is free.

Governance for Productive.io

## Destructive actions wait for a yes.

79 Productive.io actions are destructive. The first 10:

- Deletes a task `productive.tasks.delete`
- Deletes a project `productive.projects.delete`
- Deletes a time entry `productive.time_entries.delete`
- Deletes an invoice `productive.invoices.delete`
- Deletes a deal `productive.deals.delete`
- Deletes a team `productive.teams.delete`
- Deletes a payment `productive.payments.delete`
- Deletes a timesheet `productive.timesheets.delete`
- Deletes an expense `productive.expenses.delete`
- Deletes a purchase order `productive.purchase_orders.delete`

A destructive action runs only with `confirm: true`. Under the `human` policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

do productive.tasks.delete confirm_policy: **human**

Deletes a task?

**intent:** the user asked me to deletes a task

run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _productive-agent_ cannot confirm itself

In the console, or from an emailed signed link.

a key for this connector

```
account {
  op: "keys.create", name: "productive-agent",
  allowed_actions: ["productive.*"], cap_calls: 2000,
  confirm_policy: "human_for_writes",
  approval_rules: [
    { match: "productive.tasks.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "productive.projects.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" },
    { match: "productive.time_entries.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }
  ]
}
```

Illustrative. Scoped to Productive.io only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person.

Questions

## The Productive.io MCP server, answered.

**Is there a Productive.io MCP server for Claude?**

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 657 Productive.io actions across pages, expenses, people and time entries, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Productive.io.

**What do I need to connect Productive.io?**

Productive organization ID (Settings > API integrations, shown beside your tokens) and Productive API token (Settings > API integrations > Generate new token; choose read-only or full access). The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "productive" } lists exactly what to paste.

**Can an AI agent delete or change things in Productive.io?**

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 79 Productive.io actions are destructive, including deletes a task, deletes a project and deletes a time entry. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

**Will an AI agent use up my Productive.io API limit?**

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Productive.io service file: 100 calls per 10 seconds per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (244 Productive.io actions can be), which never reaches Productive.io.

**What does a Productive.io action cost?**

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (657 Productive.io actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Productive.io refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

**Which Productive.io API does it cover?**

The Productive API v2 (JSON:API, OpenAPI 3.1 api-master.yaml) at api.productive.io. It is built from Productive.io's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 657 actions in 138 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

**Can I combine Productive.io with my other systems?**

Yes. ask joins Productive.io to NetSuite or HubSpot CRM on the same customer and returns the answer rather than every row. Productive.io maps crm.company, which 227 other connectors also map.

**Does actionlake keep my Productive.io data, and where?**

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Productive.io credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

**Which AI clients can use it?**

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
