Safety flagsNoneOAuth against your Asana account (workspace-scoped). Asana states MCP apps do not use permission scopes: the token requests full access to all available tools, limited only by the user's own Asana permissions. · Write tools include create_tasks and create_project that act immediately, update_tasks, and delete_task, which permanently deletes a task and its subtasks and cannot be undone. No read-only mode documented; Claude/ChatGPT get preview tools that ask for confirmation.
