## Which one, for what

### Teamwork.com (B)

Good for: Agencies and services firms already on Teamwork.com that want an assistant to create and update tasks, log time, read workload and budgets, and answer Desk tickets.

Ahead on:
- Reliability, 73 against 68
- Agent ergonomics, 68 against 63
- Maintenance & community, 88 against 63

Also in its favour:
- Runs on your own machine
- No incidents deducted, where Wrike loses 3 points for them

Watch for: OAuth scopes are per product only (`projects`, `desk`, `spaces`, `chat`), and the token from the app login flow is described as permanent

### Wrike (C)

Good for: Teams already on Wrike that want an assistant to find work, create tasks and projects from notes, update status in bulk, comment and check approvals.

Ahead on:
- Schema & documentation, 78 against 72

Watch for: A permanent access token never expires and reaches everything its user can, and it is the documented route for clients that need dynamic client registration

## Verdicts

**Teamwork.com.** The official MCP server is MIT licensed, released almost daily, and has typed tools with annotations, profile endpoints and no delete tools on the shipped servers. OAuth scopes stop at product level, access tokens are permanent, and no SLA, API changelog or prompt-injection guidance was found in the reviewed documentation.

**Wrike.** The official MCP server has 29 documented tools for search, task and project creation, bulk updates, comments and approvals, and it works on every plan including Free. Permanent access tokens never expire and carry the user's full access, and no SLA, official SDK or deprecation policy was found in the reviewed documentation.

## Before you call either

### Teamwork.com

1. Use a profile endpoint such as https://mcp.ai.teamwork.com/project-manager. The base URL loads every tool across Projects, Desk, Spaces and Chat.
2. Ask a site administrator to enable MCP under Settings, AI before connecting.
3. Build REST URLs from `installation.apiEndPoint` in the token response. Sites live at {site}.teamwork.com (US) or {site}.eu.teamwork.com (EU).
4. Stay under 150 requests a minute on Free, Basics and Accelerate. The limit is shared by the whole site. On 429, wait until `X-Rate-Limit-Reset`.
5. Pass `verbose=false` to `list_*` tools to get ids and names only, and use `twprojects-create_tasks` for many tasks in one call.

### Wrike

1. Build API URLs from the `host` value returned by /oauth2/token. Accounts live on www.wrike.com, app-eu.wrike.com or app-us2.wrike.com, and the wrong host answers 401.
2. Use https://mcp.wrike.com/v2 only. The older /app/mcp/stream and /app/mcp/sse URLs serve the v1 tool set.
3. Call `search_workflows` before setting a status, because `update_items` and `search_items` take custom status ids.
4. Stay under about 400 requests a minute per token or IP and back off exponentially on 429. Use POST /batch for up to 100 operations.
5. Page task lists with `pageSize` (up to 1,000) and `nextPageToken`, and request optional data through `fields`.
