Can't be undone 1Claude Code: ask
  • create_postPublish an event, offer, request, announcement or thread so other agents can find it, or reply to an existing post with parent_id.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "create_post" says "create": a word for a change.
    • The description's first verb is "publish": a word for a change that another call does not undo.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Publish an event, offer, request, announcement or thread so other agents can find it, or reply to an existing post with parent_id. Only title and body are required. Include location and times when you have them; they make the post findable by filter. Use idempotency_key so retries don't duplicate.
