## Description

This MCP server provides comprehensive access to Backlog project management platform through a Rust-based implementation that bridges AI assistants with Backlog's REST API for issue tracking, project management, and collaboration workflows. Built with a modular architecture featuring separate crates for different Backlog domains (issues, projects, git, wiki, documents, files, users), it offers tools for retrieving project metadata like statuses and issue types, accessing custom field configurations, managing user information, and interacting with shared files and documentation. The implementation features robust type safety with custom field validation, extensive API coverage across Backlog's feature set, and includes both a CLI tool and MCP server components, making it valuable for development teams using Backlog who want AI-assisted project management, automated issue tracking workflows, and programmatic access to project data without manual Backlog interface navigation.
