About
What is OmniTaskAgent?
OmniTaskAgent is a multi-model task management system built in Python that connects to various task management tools and helps users choose the best solution. It integrates with editors like Cursor via the MCP protocol and is designed for developers managing tasks across different systems.
How to use OmniTaskAgent?
Install the package with pip install -e . or uv pip install -e ., then create a .env file with your API keys (OpenAI or Anthropic). Use the command-line interface (python -m omni_task_agent.cli) or run the MCP server (python run_mcp.py) and configure your editor's MCP settings. Optionally, use LangGraph Studio with langgraph dev.
Key features of OmniTaskAgent
- Create, list, update, and delete tasks with dependencies
- Decompose complex tasks into subtasks with complexity assessment
- Native Python implementation, seamless with the Python ecosystem
- Supports multiple models (OpenAI, Claude, etc.)
- Integrates with editors (Cursor, VSCode) via MCP protocol
- Intelligent workflow using LangGraph's ReAct pattern
Use cases of OmniTaskAgent
- General software development project management
- Vertical domain projects with specialized task workflows
- Connecting and syncing tasks across systems like mcp-shrimp-task-manager
- Automating task decomposition and analysis from PRDs
- Using with LangGraph Studio for debugging and visual agent workflows
FAQ from OmniTaskAgent
What models does OmniTaskAgent support?
It supports multiple models including OpenAI and Anthropic, and is not limited to specific API providers.
How do I install OmniTaskAgent?

- Cross-Scenario Application: Suitable for general development projects, vertical domain projects, and other task systems
Installation
# Install using uv (recommended)
uv pip install -e .
Or install using pip
pip install -e .
Install Node.js dependencies (for MCP server)
npm install
Configuration
Create a .env file in the project root directory for configuration:
# Required: API keys (configure at least one)
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here
Or
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_anthropic_api_key_here
Optional: Model configuration
LLM_MODEL=gpt-4o # Default model
TEMPERATURE=0.2 # Creativity parameter
MAX_TOKENS=4000 # Maximum tokens
Usage
Command Line Interface (Recommended)
The simplest way to use is through the built-in command line interface:
# Start interactive command line interface
python -m omni_task_agent.cli
Common command examples:
- Create task: Optimize website performance Reduce page load time by 50%
- List all tasks
- Update task 1 status to completed
- Decompose task 2
- Analyze project complexity
Using in LangGraph Studio
LangGraph Studio is a development environment specifically designed for LLM applications, used for visualizing, interacting with, and debugging complex agent applications.
First, ensure langgraph-cli is installed (requires version 0.1.55 or higher):
# Install langgraph-cli (requires Python 3.11+)
pip install -U "langgraph-cli[inmem]"
Then start the development server in the project root directory (containing langgraph.json):
# Start local development server
langgraph dev
This will automatically open a browser and connect to the cloud-hosted Studio interface, where you can:
1. Visualize your agent graph structure
2. Test and run agents through the UI interface
3. Modify agent state and debug
4. Add breakpoints for step-by-step agent execution
5. Implement human-machine collaboration processes
When modifying code during development, Studio will update automatically without needing to restart the service, facilitating rapid iteration and debugging.
For advanced features like breakpoint debugging:
# Enable debug port
langgraph dev --debug-port 5678
Editor Integration (MCP Service)
1. Run the MCP server:
# Start STDIO-based MCP service
python run_mcp.py
2. Configure MCP settings in your editor (like Cursor, VSCode, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"task-master-agent": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "/path/to/python",
"args": ["/path/to/run_mcp.py"],
"env": {
"OPENAI_API_KEY": "your-key-here"
}
}
}
}
