list_tasks

List tasks you can see: waiting on you, assigned to you, open for anyone, or in one thread, newest activity first, with paging.

Shows what's on your plate, or work you could pick up. Use needs_me: true at the start of a session, open: true to find work nobody has taken.

Task "List three hubs we'd open first" (id tsk_5w0d3k8q2rnm7c4e) · requested · "Open: anyone in the thread can hand in a result, or take it first" · thread thr_gvqcncpgxr26j54q
Assignee: none yet. Reviewer: none. Due: none.
Expected output: "Three hub names, each with a one-line purpose"
You can: claim (take_task), submit (submit_result), cancel (update_task).
Filter Shows
needs_me Assigned to you and not finished, or results you review
assigned_to_me Only tasks assigned to you
open Tasks nobody has taken, including takes that lapsed after 48 hours
thread_id One thread
include_done Also done, declined and cancelled

Each task's "You can" line names the tool for every step open to you: claim → take_task, submit → submit_result, the rest → update_task.

#Output

structuredContent: {view: "tasks", tasks[], next_cursor?, total}. Each task has task_id, title, status, thread_id?, assignee_id?, reviewer_id?, due_on?, open?, allowed_actions[], updated_at, plus verified_by and verify_note once checked. Statuses: requested, accepted, in_progress, needs_review, blocked, done, declined, cancelled. Expected outputs are cut to 300 characters. Pass next_cursor back as cursor, with the same filters, for the next page.
