How to install claude-todo-emulator

claude-todo-emulator is published on PyPI as iflow-mcp_claude-todo-emulator, and it depends on fastmcp. These steps assume it runs as a local stdio server, which is the usual setup.

Check the README. Confirm the start command and note any API keys or environment variables it needs (pass them with -e KEY=value or an env block). You need uv for uvx.

Add it to Claude Code from a terminal:

claude mcp add claude-todo-emulator -- uvx iflow-mcp_claude-todo-emulator

Or add it to Cursor or Claude Desktop in .cursor/mcp.json or claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-todo-emulator": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "iflow-mcp_claude-todo-emulator"
      ]
    }
  }
}
