Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Monday.com MCP serverCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Obtain a personal API token from monday.com and note your workspace name from the URL (e.g., myworkspace from https://myworkspace.monday.com/). Configure the server in your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) using either the uvx command or a Docker container, passing the credentials as environment variables (MONDAY_API_KEY, MONDAY_WORKSPACE_NAME). Alternatively, authenticate via Rube.app for a no‑code setup.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

Development
Building and Publishing
To prepare the package for distribution:
1. Sync dependencies and update lockfile:
uv sync
2. Build package distributions:
uv build
This will create source and wheel distributions in the dist/ directory.
3. Publish to PyPI:
uv publish
Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:
- Token: --token or UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN
- Or username/password: --username/UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME and --password/UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD
Debugging
Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging
experience, we strongly recommend using the MCP Inspector.
You can launch the MCP Inspector via npm with this command:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run mcp-server-monday
Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
