Nearer MCP MCP server

The Nearer MCP server enables AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT to interact with the Nearer productivity app. It allows users to break down high-level goals into small, manageable steps, retrieve the next immediate action, mark steps as complete, and subdivide large tasks. The server manages task lists and tracks progress without the ability to delete content, ensuring a focused workflow for one-task-at-a-time productivity.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http nearer-mcp https://nearer.io/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add nearer-mcp --url https://nearer.io/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable nearer-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nearer-mcp": {
      "url": "https://nearer.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.

Cline configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nearer-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://nearer.io/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start nearer-mcp and inspect its tools.

VS Code configuration

{
  "servers": {
    "nearer-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://nearer.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.

Gemini CLI configuration

gemini mcp add --transport http nearer-mcp https://nearer.io/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Claude Desktop configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nearer-mcp": {
      "url": "https://nearer.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.

Windsurf configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nearer-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://nearer.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
