What problem does it solve?
Provides a concise, programmatic way to update a kanban task's status, assignment, priority, or metadata to avoid manual edits, synchronization drift, and lost activity context.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Status transitions: Change task state across backlog, ready, in_progress, blocked, review, done, and canceled.
- Assignment and priority: Assign an agent and adjust priority to route work to the correct owner.
- Audit logging: Record activity entries when updates occur to preserve an actionable change history.
- Use Case: An agent claims a task, sets status to in_progress, assigns themselves, and adds a brief message so teammates see progress and blockers.
