    Dome CLI, installed with brew install dome-systems/tap/dome, then signed in with dome auth login.

    Docker Compose to run the companion app locally.

    1. 1

      Create a workspace

      dome workspaces create --name <workspace-name>

      The CLI creates and selects a workspace context for you.

    2. 2

      Confirm the workspace context

      dome context list

      The workspace you just created is already selected.

    3. 3

      Pull the template

      npx @domesystems/templates pull dome-systems/ai-agent-for-asana@0.1.0 --dir ai-agent-for-asana

      Downloads this immutable release and verifies its digest.

    4. 4

      Run the template

      npx @domesystems/templates up --dir ai-agent-for-asana

      Imports it into Dome and starts the companion app.

    Dome import variables

    npx @domesystems/templates up imports the template into Dome and prompts for required values. For unattended runs, set them as DOME_IMPORT_VAR_… environment variables.

    Required values

    • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_asana_oauth_client_id
    • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_asana_oauth_client_secret
    • DOME_IMPORT_VAR_anthropic_api_key

    Setup guide

    Follow this template's setup guidance for agent variables and upstream connections.

    # Configure Asana

Asana's V2 MCP server requires a pre-registered **MCP app**; it does not
support Dynamic Client Registration.

- In the [Asana developer console](https://app.asana.com/0/developer-console),
  create an **MCP app**.
- In **OAuth**, register the exact redirect URI
  `https://api.domesystems.ai/oauth/callback`.
- In **Manage distribution**, allow the Asana workspace that will be used for
  this agent.
- `asana_oauth_client_id`: enter the MCP app's Client ID.
- `asana_oauth_client_secret`: enter the MCP app's Client secret.
- `anthropic_api_key`: enter the Anthropic key used by this agent's model.

After saving, sign in through OAuth with a test user that can see only the
projects and tasks this agent should read. Asana MCP apps use the permissions of
the authorizing user; do not request a separate OAuth scope.

    Runtime environment

    These variables are required to run the agent. During pull, .env.example is copied to .env when available. If they’re missing, npx @domesystems/templates up retrieves them from Dome and saves them in .env. Pass --provision to refresh them.

    No .env.example is included in this release.

    Agent instructions

    Answer questions using the connected Asana workspace. Search and summarize
projects, tasks, portfolios, teams, and status without changing records. If asked to
create, edit, complete, assign, or delete anything, explain that this is a
read-only template and offer a proposed change for the user to apply.
