name: sunsama description: | Sunsama MCP integration with managed authentication. Manage daily tasks, calendar events, backlog, objectives, time tracking, and email threads from connected accounts (Gmail, Outlook). Use this skill when users want to interact with Sunsama for task management, daily planning, and email thread operations. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key metadata: author: maton version: "1.0" clawdbot: emoji: homepage: "https://maton.ai" requires: env: - MATON_API_KEY

Sunsama MCP

Access Sunsama via MCP (Model Context Protocol) with managed authentication.

Quick Start

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'searchTerm': 'meeting'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/sunsama/search_tasks', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://api.maton.ai/sunsama/{tool-name}

Maton proxies requests to Sunsama's MCP server and automatically injects your credentials. The {tool-name} corresponds to the MCP tool name (e.g., search_tasks).

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at maton.ai 2. Go to maton.ai/settings 3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your Sunsama MCP connections at https://api.maton.ai.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'

Security & Permissions

  • Access is scoped to tasks, channels, timers, scheduling data, and email threads within the connected Sunsama account.
  • Email thread access spans connected email accounts. Sunsama can list, read, mark as read, delete, and create follow-up tasks from email threads in linked Gmail or Outlook accounts. Always confirm with the user before performing any email operation, as these actions affect the connected email account directly.
  • All write operations require explicit user approval. Before executing any create, update, or delete call β€” including email deletions and calendar event changes β€” confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user.
  • MCP Reference

    All MCP tools use POST method:

    Code Examples

    JavaScript

    const response = await fetch('https://api.maton.ai/sunsama/search_tasks', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
        'Authorization': Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({
        searchTerm: 'meeting'
      })
    });
    const data = await response.json();
    console.log(data);
    

    Python

    import os
    import requests

    response = requests.post( 'https://api.maton.ai/sunsama/search_tasks', headers={ 'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}', 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, json={ 'searchTerm': 'meeting' } ) print(response.json())

    Error Handling

    | Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | 400 | Missing MCP connection or invalid tool name | | 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key | | 429 | Rate limited |

    Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

    1. Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

    echo $MATON_API_KEY
    

    2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

    python <<'EOF'
    import urllib.request, os, json
    req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections')
    req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
    print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
    EOF
    

    Notes

  • All task IDs are MongoDB ObjectIds (24-character hex strings)
  • Date format: YYYY-MM-DD for days, ISO 8601 for datetimes
  • MCP tool responses wrap content in {"content": [{"type": "text", "text": "..."}], "isError": false} format
  • The text field contains JSON-stringified data that should be parsed
  • Time estimates are returned as human-readable strings (e.g., "20 minutes")
  • Resources

  • Sunsama
  • Maton Community
  • Maton Support
  • πŸ’‘ Examples

    python <<'EOF'
    import urllib.request, os, json
