Note: This MCP server is designed to be a standalone executable that doesn't require installing dependencies when used with npx. All dependencies are bundled into the final executable for optimal user experience.

⚠️ Known Issues

Iteration Node Update Limitation: Updating project-level iteration node dates (start/end) via the Azure DevOps SDK fails with "Iteration node not found" even when the node is confirmed to exist and is fetchable by ID. All tested path formats fail for update/fetch by path, but fetching by ID works. This may be an SDK bug, REST/SOAP mismatch, or permissions issue. If you encounter this, consider using the Azure DevOps REST API directly or check for updates to the SDK.
