Get a list of all projects from Todoist with their IDs, names, descriptions, and hierarchy information
AI agents call todoist_project_get to retrieve information from Mcp Todoist without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves project metadata (IDs, names, descriptions, hierarchy) from Todoist without creating, modifying, or deleting any data. It has no side effects and poses minimal security risk if misused by an AI agent, as the worst case is exposure of existing project information the user already has access to.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get a list of all projects from Todoist' — a retrieval operation with no modification capability. The verb 'get' and absence of any write/delete/execute language confirm this is a read-only query.
