Acme Todo
Learn and test MCP client wiring with a minimal hosted todo-list server before you connect production APIs.
Overview
Acme Todo MCP is a MCP server for the Build phase that exposes a simple todo list over streamable HTTP so you can validate MCP client integrations.

- Minimal todo-list MCP for learning and demos
- Hosted streamable-http at mcp.ritzademo.com
- Open-source reference github.com/ritza-co/acme-todo
- Version 1.0.0 on MCP schema 2025-09-29

What problem does it solve?
You are unsure whether your MCP client is configured correctly, and you do not want to debug against a production API on day one.
Who is it for?
Builders learning MCP who want a zero-risk remote server and an open-source repo to copy patterns from.
Skip if: Teams needing a real task system, multi-user auth, or SLA-backed production infrastructure.
What do I get? / Deliverables
You confirm tool calls and list CRUD against a harmless remote todo server, then reuse the same setup for real integrations.
- Working end-to-end MCP tool calls against a todo list
- Reusable integration pattern for swapping in production MCP URLs

Journey fit
Canonical shelf is Build because the server exists to exercise agent-to-service integration patterns, not to run a real product backlog. Integrations subphase covers hooking an MCP remote into your client—the core lesson of this Ritza demo server.
