Krokanti Tasks
REST API

Krokanti Tasks API

Automate your task management workflow with personal API tokens and a simple REST API.

Base URL:https://tasks.krokanti.com/api
Rate limit:100 req/min per token

Pro or Team plan required

API access is available on Pro and Team plans. Generate tokens in Settings → API Tokens.

Upgrade your plan →

Authentication

All API requests must include an Authorization header with a personal API token. Generate tokens in Settings → API Tokens. Tokens start with kt_ and are shown once on creation.

curl https://tasks.krokanti.com/api/spaces 
  -H "Authorization: Bearer kt_your_token_here" 
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
Security note: Tokens cannot manage other tokens. Store them securely.

Webhooks

Subscreve um endpoint HTTPS aos eventos de tarefas e o Krokanti Tasks envia-te as alterações no momento em que acontecem. É a forma suportada de manter um sistema externo (GitHub Issues, Linear, um bot de Slack, a tua própria base de dados) sincronizado.

Não faças polling por temporizador. Um cron que relê o quadro inteiro a cada minuto mantém a base de dados serverless acordada e continua atrasado. Se tiveres mesmo de fazer polling, usa GET /api/tasks?updatedSince=<ISO 8601> para ler só o que mudou.

Eventos

EventoDisparado quando
task.createdUma tarefa é criada.
task.updatedQualquer campo muda. Reordenar dentro da coluna não dispara evento.
task.movedA tarefa muda de coluna de estado, ou passa para outro projeto.
task.assignedAlguém é atribuído. data.assignee contém o utilizador.
task.unassignedUma atribuição é removida. data.assignee contém o utilizador.
task.completedA tarefa é marcada como concluída.
task.reopenedUma tarefa concluída é reaberta.
task.archivedA tarefa é arquivada (escondida do quadro, ainda recuperável).
task.unarchivedUma tarefa arquivada é restaurada.
task.deletedA tarefa é eliminada permanentemente. O payload leva o retrato anterior à eliminação.
task.commentedÉ publicado um comentário. data.comment contém-no.

Um envio por alteração: cada webhook recebe o evento mais específico a que subscreveu. Um webhook que só conhece task.updated continua a receber um envio quando uma tarefa é movida, atribuída ou arquivada — as integrações antigas continuam a funcionar.

Payload

Os envios são POST com corpo JSON. O objeto task vem sempre completo (estado, atribuídos, etiquetas, datas), pelo que raramente precisas de uma leitura adicional.

{
  "id": "b1e1c0de-...",                  // delivery id — de-duplicate on this
  "event": "task.moved",

    "actor":   { "id": "9c2f...", "name": "Edgar" },
    "comment": null,
    "assignee": null,
    "changes": { "statusId": { "from": "1f00...", "to": "2a91..." } }
  }
}

Cabeçalhos

Todos os envios de plataforma personalizada trazem estes cabeçalhos. Usa X-Krokanti-Delivery para desduplicar repetições.

X-Krokanti-Event:         task.moved
X-Krokanti-Delivery:      b1e1c0de-...          # unique per delivery
X-Krokanti-Timestamp:     2026-07-27T09:14:22.104Z
X-Krokanti-Signature:     3f8a...               # HMAC-SHA256 hex of the raw body
X-Krokanti-Signature-256: sha256=3f8a...        # same value, GitHub-style prefix
User-Agent:               Krokanti-Tasks-Webhook/1

Verificar a assinatura

A assinatura é um HMAC-SHA256 do corpo bruto exato do pedido, com o segredo do webhook como chave. Compara-a em tempo constante e sobre o corpo bruto — se fizeres parse e voltares a serializar não vai coincidir.

import crypto from "crypto";

export async function POST(req: Request) {
  const raw = await req.text();                  // raw body, before JSON.parse
  const sent = req.headers.get("x-krokanti-signature") ?? "";
  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac("sha256", process.env.KROKANTI_WEBHOOK_SECRET!)
    .update(raw)
    .digest("hex");

  const a = Buffer.from(sent), b = Buffer.from(expected);
  if (a.length !== b.length || !crypto.timingSafeEqual(a, b)) {
    return new Response("invalid signature", { status: 401 });
  }

  const payload = JSON.parse(raw);
  // ... handle payload.event, de-duplicate on payload.id
  return new Response("ok");                     // respond 2xx fast; queue slow work
}

Semântica de entrega

Cada envio expira aos 4 s e é repetido uma vez em caso de timeout, erro de rede, 5xx ou 429. Um 4xx é tratado como rejeição permanente e não é repetido. Ao fim de 10 falhas seguidas o webhook é desativado automaticamente — reativa-o nas definições do espaço.

Gerir webhooks

GET/api/spaces/:id/webhooks

Lista os webhooks de um espaço, com o segredo, eventos subscritos e estado do último envio. Só owner/admin.

POST/api/spaces/:id/webhooks

ParameterTypeDescription
namerequiredstringLabel for this integration.
urlrequiredstring (HTTPS)Endpoint that receives the POSTs.
eventsrequiredstring[]Events to subscribe to (see the table above).
platformcustom | slack | discordcustom (default) sends the JSON payload; slack/discord send formatted messages and require Team+.

ParameterTypeDescription
namestringNew label.
urlstring (HTTPS)New endpoint.

DELETE/api/spaces/:id/webhooks/:webhookId

Elimina uma subscrição de webhook.

POST/api/spaces/:id/webhooks/:webhookId/test

Envia um payload de teste para o endpoint — mesmos cabeçalhos e assinatura de um real. Usa-o para validar o teu código de verificação.

Error codes

Error responses include an error field and optionally a code field.

StatusMeaningCommon cause
400Bad RequestMissing or invalid fields.
401UnauthorizedMissing or invalid API token.
402Payment RequiredAPI access requires Pro or Team.
403ForbiddenInsufficient role.
404Not FoundResource does not exist.
409ConflictSlug already taken.
429Too Many RequestsExceeded 100 req/min per token.
// Error response body
{ "error": "Unauthorized" }

// With machine-readable subcode
{ "error": "API access requires a Pro or Team plan", "code": "pro_required" }

Rate limits

API token requests are limited to 100 requests per minute per token.

When you exceed the limit you receive 429 Too Many Requests. The response includes a Retry-After header with seconds to wait.

HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
Retry-After: 42
Content-Type: application/json

{ "error": "Rate limit exceeded" }

Replace kt_your_token_here with your actual token.

MCP — AI Integration

Krokanti Tasks ships with a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Connect Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor to your tasks and let AI create, update, and query tasks on your behalf — using the same API token.

Claude Code

Create a .mcp.json file in the root of your project (or add to an existing one):

// .mcp.json (project root)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "krokanti-tasks": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tasks.krokanti.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer kt_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code also needs the server enabled. Create .claude/settings.local.json in the same directory:

// .claude/settings.local.json
{
  "enableAllProjectMcpServers": true,
  "enabledMcpjsonServers": ["krokanti-tasks"]
}

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file. On macOS the file is at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. On Windows: %APPDATA%Claudeclaude_desktop_config.json.

// claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "krokanti-tasks": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote@latest",
        "https://tasks.krokanti.com/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization: Bearer kt_your_token_here"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (project-level) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global access:

// .cursor/mcp.json  (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "krokanti-tasks": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://tasks.krokanti.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer kt_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
