Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running. GitHub **15** triggers GitHub **19** actions Google Tasks **5** triggers Google Tasks **16** actions What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it. ## What do you want GitHub and Google Tasks to do together? Give your AI client this address. `https://mcp.apiant.ai` One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser. ### Set it up in your client ### Claude Code Run this in the directory you want to work in. `claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai` Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens. [Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code) ### Claude, web and desktop Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Cursor Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Zed Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in. [Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp) ### Any other MCP client Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

This trigger monitors a specific task list and fires when tasks are modified. - Action **Batch Execute** Executes multiple Google Tasks API operations in a single HTTP batch request and returns structured per-item results. Use this to reduce LLM tool invocations when performing bulk operations like updating many tasks, moving tasks, or deleting multiple items. Note: Each sub-request still counts toward API quota; batching primarily reduces HTTP overhead and tool call count. - Action **Clear Tasks** Permanently clears all completed tasks from a specified google tasks list; this action is destructive and idempotent. - Action **Create Task List** Creates a new task list with the specified title. - Action **Delete Task** Deletes a specified task from a given task list in google tasks. - Action **Delete Task List** Permanently deletes an existing google task list, identified by `tasklist id`, along with all its tasks; this operation is irreversible. - Action **Get Task** Use to retrieve a specific google task if its `task id` and parent `tasklist id` are known. - Action **Get Task List** Retrieves a specific task list from the user's google tasks if the `tasklist id` exists for the authenticated user. - Action **Insert Task** Creates a new task in a given `tasklist id`, optionally as a subtask of an existing `task parent` or positioned after an existing `task previous` sibling, where both `task parent` and `task previous` must belong to the same `tasklist id` if specified. - Action **List Task Lists** Fetches the authenticated user's task lists from google tasks; results may be paginated. - Action **List Tasks** Retrieves tasks from a google tasks list; all date/time strings must be rfc3339 utc, and `showcompleted` must be true if `completedmin` or `completedmax` are specified. - Action **Move Task** Moves the specified task to another position in the destination task list. - Action **Patch Task** Partially updates an existing task (identified by `task id`) within a specific google task list (identified by `tasklist id`), modifying only the provided attributes from `taskinput` (e.g., `title`, `notes`, `due` date, `status`) and requiring both the task and list to exist. - Action **Patch Task List** Updates the title of an existing google tasks task list. - Action **Update Task** Updates the specified task. - Action **Update Task Full** Tool to fully replace an existing Google Task using PUT method. Use when you need to update the entire task resource, not just specific fields. This method requires all required fields (id, title) and replaces the complete task, unlike PATCH which supports partial updates. - Action **Update Task List** Updates the authenticated user's specified task list. ## Each app on its own - [ **GitHub** GitHub is the perfect place to share code and work collaboratively on private and open source software.](https://apiant.ai/connections/github) - [ **Google Tasks** Google Tasks provides a simple to-do list and task management system integrated into Gmail and Google...](https://apiant.ai/connections/google-tasks) Reviews ## What our customers say ## More from GitHub - [ **GitHub to HubSpot** HubSpot is your all-in-one stop for all of your marketing software needs.](https://apiant.ai/connect/github-to-hubspot) - [ **GitHub to Salesforce** Salesforce is a leading enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) platform.](https://apiant.ai/connect/github-to-salesforce) - [ **GitHub to Slack** Slack is a messaging platform for teams.

Any of GitHub's 15 triggers in the catalog, including New Branch, New Collaborator, New Commit and New Commit Comment. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Google Tasks when something happens in GitHub? Any of Google Tasks's 16 actions, including Create Task List, Update Task, Update Task Full and Update Task List. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Google Tasks to GitHub? Yes. When something happens in Google Tasks, your agent can act in GitHub too. This page covers both directions: Google Tasks's triggers and GitHub's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for GitHub or Google Tasks? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use GitHub and Google Tasks without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
