A todo list application implementing Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless interaction with AI assistants and chatbots. This application is a practical todo list manager and a demonstration of MCP integration.

• ✨ Full todo list functionality (create, read, update, delete tasks)
• 🤖 MCP-compliant API for AI assistant integration
• 🏠 Local storage (no SaaS account required)

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized interface that allows AI models and chatbots to interact with applications in a consistent and predictable way. By implementing MCP, this todo list app can be seamlessly controlled by AI assistants, enabling natural language interactions for task management.
