## Tools

8 declared. Statically extracted from the shipped source — a floor on the surface, not a census.
- `task_create` — Create a pipeline task. Tasks start in "backlog" and move through stages: backlog → spec → plan → implement → test → review → done. Use parent_id to create subt
- `task_get` — Get a single task by ID. By default returns task with artifact count, comment count, dependencies, and collaborators. Use "include" to inline full subtasks, art
- `task_list` — List, search, or pick tasks. Without params: returns all tasks. With filters: narrow by status/stage/project/assignee. With "query": full-text search across tit
- `task_update` — Update task metadata — title, description, priority, tags, project, assignment, or dependencies. Does not change stage or status (use task_stage for that).
- `task_delete` — Delete a task and all its artifacts, comments, and dependencies (cascading delete). Cannot be undone.
- `task_stage` — Move a task through its lifecycle. Actions: "claim" → assign to you and advance from backlog to spec, "assign" → assign to you WITHOUT advancing the stage (use 
- `task_artifact` — Attach artifacts or comments to a task. Types: "general" → document (spec, test-results, review-notes), "decision" → structured decision record (chose/over/beca
- `task_config` — Configuration and admin. Actions: "session" → set agent identity (call this first), "pipeline" → get/set pipeline stages and gate config for a project, "cleanup

## Install

**Verdict: install** — No blocking findings and no open coverage gaps — safe to install as configured.
**Config** (claude-code):
```json
"{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"agent-tasks\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\n        \"-y\",\n        \"agent-tasks\"\n      ]\n    }\n  }\n}"
```

## Blast radius

Extensive blast radius — deletes data; runs on your machine.
- Floor 35, ceiling 59 (tier: extensive)
- This is impact, not likelihood. A high radius is not a defect: a filesystem server is supposed to write files. It is never part of the trust score.
