04 · Authentication and permissions

Official Asana docs confirm the OAuth-based V2 server is GA and supersedes the deprecated V1 beta. Existing vendor identity, account, tenant, and permission controls should be treated as the authorization boundary.

05 · Monitoring, approval, and recovery

Official Asana docs confirm the OAuth-based V2 server is GA and supersedes the deprecated V1 beta. Pre-registered MCP apps, organization app management and evolving tools/list schemas should be reflected; writes need user-visible confirmation.

First-party MCP tool catalog

27 named MCP tools · Asana-hosted V2 server

The exact V2 tool names published for Asana's hosted workspace-scoped MCP server at mcp.asana.com/v2/mcp. Reviewed Jul 10, 2026. The publisher says the page lists every available V2 tool but directs clients to tools/list for current schemas. OAuth grants the full MCP tool set within the selected workspace and the authenticated user's existing permissions. Interactive confirmation tools currently render only in Claude and ChatGPT; ordinary write tools act immediately.
