Start a free trial on cloud.anythingmcp.com, add the Zenhub in one click, then point your AI client (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot or Cursor) at the generated MCP endpoint. No Docker, no git clone, zero engineering experience required.
Summary
Work with Zenhub boards from an AI agent through the GraphQL API: workspaces, pipelines and the issues in them, issue details, sprints and their issues, epics and their child issues, estimates; move issues, set estimates, plan sprints, create issues and comment. 17 typed tools plus a generic query tool, personal API key.

Zenhub + Meta Muse
Work with Zenhub boards from an AI agent through the GraphQL API: workspaces, pipelines and the issues in them, issue details, sprints and their issues, epics and their child issues, estimates; move issues, set estimates, plan sprints, create issues and comment. 17 typed tools plus a generic query tool, personal API key.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
ZENHUB_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
The connector talks to the Zenhub GraphQL API with a personal API key. The key acts as its user: workspaces and repositories that user cannot see are missing from every result.
- In Zenhub open the API section of the dashboard (https://app.zenhub.com/settings/tokens) and create a Personal API Key for the GraphQL API. A user can have up to 5 keys.
- Copy the key right away (it is shown once) and paste it into
ZENHUB_API_KEYwithoutBearerin front. A legacy REST token does not work here. - Call
zenhub_get_viewerto check the key, find a workspace withzenhub_search_workspaces, then read the board withzenhub_list_pipelinesandzenhub_list_pipeline_issues.
Things to know:
- Each key gets 90 seconds of processing time per minute and at most 30 concurrent requests, and one query may not exceed 200 complexity points. That is why the list tools return 10 to 30 items by default; page with
afterset topageInfo.endCursor. - Zenhub ids are opaque strings. The write tools need the Zenhub issue
id, not the issue number. - For what the typed tools do not cover (releases, roadmaps, dependencies, priorities, labels), use
zenhub_graphql_queryorzenhub_graphql_mutation. zenhub_move_issue,zenhub_set_estimate,zenhub_add_issues_to_sprints,zenhub_create_issueandzenhub_add_commentchange the board or post content the team sees.
Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Muse
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Muse adds remote MCP servers as custom connectors and signs in to them with OAuth.
- In Muse, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
- Paste the MCP server URL
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID. - Muse opens the AnythingMCP sign-in page: sign in and approve access.
- In a chat, ask Muse for something that needs the
Zenhubtools.
You can also set it up from a chat, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps or in WhatsApp. Send Muse this message:
Create a Custom Connector for a new remote MCP server, then connect to it:
Name: AnythingMCP
Transport: remote streamable HTTP
URL: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID
Auth: OAuth
Self-hosting? Use your instance's public HTTPS address instead of https://cloud.anythingmcp.com. Muse connects from Meta's cloud, so localhost does not work.

FAQ
Where is Muse available? Meta currently offers Muse in the US and Canada, on the web, in the iOS and Android apps and in WhatsApp.
Does Meta review this connector? No. Meta doesn't review custom connectors. Muse sees only the tools you switched on for this MCP server in AnythingMCP, and you can disconnect it anytime under Settings → Connectors.
