Modèle de lancement de projet avec MCP : créer un tableau et les tâches de démarrage
Set up a new project in Corcava using MCP. This kickoff playbook shows you how to define scope, create a starter task list, add initial comments for risks and milestones, and generate a complete project setup—all through natural language prompts to your AI assistant.
Ce que ce workflow permet
Project kickoff with MCP streamlines new project setup:
Résultats clés
- Project setup: Define project scope, timeline, and stakeholders
- Starter tasks: Create initial task list based on project requirements
- Risk documentation: Add comments identifying risks and mitigation strategies
- Milestone tracking: Document key milestones and deadlines
- Team alignment: Assign initial tasks to team members
Prérequis
Before using this workflow, ensure you have:
- Corcava MCP server configured in your AI assistant
- API key with write access to projects and tasks
- Project information ready (name, timeline, stakeholders, scope)
- Team member information for task assignments
Workflow pas à pas
Step 1: Provide Project Information
Start by providing project details to the AI assistant:
Project Kickoff Template Prompt
What the AI does:
- Analyzes project information
- Generates starter task list based on project type and scope
- Organizes tasks by category (setup, planning, milestones)
- Presents task list for review (no creation yet)
Step 2: Review and Customize Task List
Review the proposed tasks and add project-specific items:
Task Customization Prompt
What the AI does:
- Modifies task list based on feedback
- Adds or removes tasks as requested
- Shows updated task list
- Waits for approval before creating tasks
Step 3: Add Risk and Milestone Comments
Document risks and milestones as comments on project tasks:
Risk Documentation Prompt
What the AI does:
- Analyzes project scope to identify risks
- Drafts risk comments (e.g., "Risk: [Description]. Mitigation: [Strategy]")
- Identifies milestones and drafts milestone comments
- Shows preview of all comments
- Waits for "CONFIRM" before calling
add_task_comment
Step 4: Create Tasks (with Confirmation)
⚠️ Always Confirm Before Creating Tasks
Never let AI create tasks without explicit confirmation. Use this pattern:
- Preview First: Show all tasks that will be created
- Confirmation Token: Require "CONFIRM ALL" before creating
- Review Details: Display title, description, assignee, due date for each task
- Verify Project: Confirm tasks go to the correct project
Safe Task Creation Prompt
What the AI does:
- Shows complete task list with all details
- Confirms project name and ID
- Waits for "CONFIRM ALL"
- Only after confirmation, calls
create_taskfor each task - Confirms each task was created successfully

Safety Patterns
⚠️ Confirmation Rules for Task Creation
When creating multiple tasks during project kickoff:
- Always preview: Show complete task list with all details before creating
- Require explicit confirmation: Use "CONFIRM ALL" for batch creation
- Verify project: Confirm tasks go to the correct project
- Review assignments: Check that task assignments make sense
Troubleshooting
Project Not Found
Symptom: Error when creating tasks
Possible causes:
- Project doesn't exist yet (need to create project first)
- Project ID is incorrect
- Project belongs to different workspace
Fix: Use list_projects to find correct project ID, or create project in Corcava first
Too Generic Tasks
Symptom: Tasks are too vague or generic
Possible causes:
- Project scope description was too brief
- AI didn't have enough context
Fix: Provide more detailed project scope, or refine tasks after initial creation
