Clockify Automation

Automate your Clockify time tracking operations directly from Claude Code. Log time entries, query historical data, manage workspaces, and audit team activity -- all without leaving your terminal.

Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/clockify

Setup

  • Add the Rube MCP server to your Claude Code config with URL: https://rube.app/mcp

  • When prompted, authenticate your Clockify account through the connection link provided

  • Start automating your time tracking workflows with natural language

    • Core Workflows

    1. Create Time Entries

    Log time with project, task, and tag associations, plus billable status.

    Tool: CLOCKIFY_CREATE_TIME_ENTRY

    Log 2 hours of work on project 64a687e2 in workspace 64a687e3 starting at 9am UTC today with description "API development"

    Key parameters:

  • workspaceId (required) -- workspace where the entry is created

  • start (required) -- ISO 8601 start time (e.g., 2026-02-11T09:00:00Z)

  • end -- ISO 8601 end time; omit to create a running timer

  • projectId -- associate with a project

  • taskId -- associate with a task

  • description -- work description (0-3000 chars)

  • tagIds -- array of tag IDs

  • billable -- whether the entry is billable

  • customFieldValues -- array of custom field entries with customFieldId and value

    • 2. Query Time Entries

    Retrieve historical time entries for reporting, auditing, and invoicing.

    Tool: CLOCKIFY_GET_TIME_ENTRIES

    Get all time entries for user abc123 in workspace xyz789 from January 2026

    Key parameters:

  • workspaceId (required) -- workspace to query

  • userId (required) -- user whose entries to retrieve

  • start / end -- ISO 8601 date range filters

  • project -- filter by project ID

  • task -- filter by task ID

  • tags -- comma-separated tag IDs

  • description -- text filter (partial match)

  • hydrated -- set true to get full project/task/tag objects instead of just IDs

  • in-progress -- set true to return only the running timer

  • page / page-size -- pagination (default 50 per page)

    • 3. Delete Time Entries

    Remove erroneous, duplicate, or cancelled time entries.

    Tool: CLOCKIFY_DELETE_TIME_ENTRY

    Delete time entry 5b715448 from workspace 64a687e3

  • Requires workspaceId and id (the time entry ID)

  • Use for cleanup of bad imports or duplicates

    • 4. Manage Workspaces

    List all workspaces the authenticated user belongs to.

    Tool: CLOCKIFY_GET_ALL_MY_WORKSPACES

    Show me all my Clockify workspaces

  • Optional roles filter -- array of roles like ["WORKSPACE_ADMIN", "OWNER"]

  • Use this to discover workspace IDs before creating or querying entries

    • 5. User Information

    Retrieve current user details and list workspace members.

    Tools: CLOCKIFY_GET_CURRENTLY_LOGGED_IN_USER_INFO, CLOCKIFY_FIND_ALL_USERS_ON_WORKSPACE

    Who am I logged in as? Then list all users in workspace 64a687e3

  • CLOCKIFY_GET_CURRENTLY_LOGGED_IN_USER_INFO returns the authenticated user's profile (no parameters needed)

  • CLOCKIFY_FIND_ALL_USERS_ON_WORKSPACE requires workspaceId; supports name, email filters and pagination (page, page-size max 100)

    • 6. Running Timer Management

    Start a timer by omitting end in create, or check for running entries.

    Tools: CLOCKIFY_CREATE_TIME_ENTRY, CLOCKIFY_GET_TIME_ENTRIES

    Start a timer on project abc in workspace xyz with description "Working on bug fix"

  • Create without end to start a running timer

  • Use CLOCKIFY_GET_TIME_ENTRIES with in-progress: true to check if a timer is running

    • Known Pitfalls

  • Workspace and user IDs are required: Most Clockify tools require both workspaceId and userId. Always call CLOCKIFY_GET_ALL_MY_WORKSPACES and CLOCKIFY_GET_CURRENTLY_LOGGED_IN_USER_INFO first to resolve these IDs.

  • ISO 8601 timestamps: All time parameters must be in ISO 8601 format with timezone (e.g., 2026-02-11T09:00:00Z). Omitting the timezone causes unpredictable behavior.

  • Running timers: Only one timer can run at a time. Creating a new entry without end will fail if another timer is already active. Stop the existing timer first.

  • Pagination defaults: CLOCKIFY_GET_TIME_ENTRIES defaults to 50 entries per page. For full exports, loop through pages until no more results are returned.

  • Tag IDs are workspace-scoped: Tag IDs from one workspace cannot be used in another. Always resolve tags within the target workspace context.

    • Quick Reference
