Claude Code: deny. ### `taskhold_plan` - The description's first verb is "add": a word for a change. - The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true). Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Add ordered steps (subtasks) to a task so the person sees a checklist; the progress bar fills as steps finish. taskhold_begin already does this for new work. For an existing task: taskhold_start it, then taskhold_plan. Steps don't nest. Returns the task's whole step list with ids. Fails on an unknown task_id, on a step (plan its parent) or past 200 steps per task. Planning a done task adds todo steps but leaves it done; taskhold_start it to reopen. ``` ### `taskhold_update` - The name "taskhold_update" says "update": a word for a change. - The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true). Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Update a task's title, description, priority or project. Only fields you pass change; status goes through taskhold_start, taskhold_complete and taskhold_block. Returns the task as it is now. Fails on an unknown task_id, a project_id that doesn't exist (pass project by name instead) or an invalid project name. ``` ### `taskhold_update_project` - The name "taskhold_update_project" says "update": a word for a change. - The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true). Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Change a project's name, description or color. Only fields you pass change. Returns the project as it is now. Fails on an unknown project (it is never created here), on a name another project already has, or with nothing to change. ``` ## Changes things (12) Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask. ### `taskhold_add_note` - The name "taskhold_add_note" says "add": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Add a note to a task: findings, decisions, what you tried. The person reads these. Notes are append-only and shown oldest first (taskhold_get shows the latest 10). Returns a one-line confirmation; an unknown task_id fails with "Task not found". ``` ### `taskhold_begin` - The description's first verb is "start": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Start work in one call: files a new task (or takes an existing one with task_id), plans its steps, marks it in progress and starts the first step. Use this whenever the person asks for something: it puts the request on their board with a checklist and a progress bar. Returns the task id, the numbered steps with ids, the step now running and a cursor for taskhold_updates. Every event of the call (created, planned, started) carries the agent label. On a task already under way it appends the steps. Fails without title or task_id, on an unknown task_id (get one from taskhold_list) or on a step (begin its parent, or taskhold_start the step). ``` ### `taskhold_block` - The description's first verb is "mark": a word for a change. Description, as the server wrote it: ```untrusted-server-text Mark a task (or step) blocked when you can't continue without the person (a decision, missing info, access). Returns the question and the exact taskhold_updates call to wait with. Write the reason as one question they can answer from the board in a line, e.g. "Decide: drop the legacy column or keep it nullable?". When the answer is a choice, pass 2-4 short options (and recommended, the index of the one you'd pick, 0 = first): the person answers with one tap and the reply reads Reply to "": chose "
