mcp-shrimp-task-manager

Why we included this project

Coding agents tend to lose the thread once a session hits its context limit or restarts. Shrimp Task Manager is an MCP server for assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf that gives them a persistent task store to lean on. It takes natural-language instructions and turns them into structured development tasks with tracked dependencies, then keeps the plan, progress, and reasoning visible so the work survives a restart intact. On top of that it nudges the agent toward chain-of-thought planning, reflection, and style consistency, which is a useful correction for anyone who has watched an AI coding assistant improvise its way through a project. If you are running agentic workflows where session memory alone is not enough to keep a multi-step effort coherent, this is worth a look.
