FAQ

Questions about add_work_item_to_launch

What does the add_work_item_to_launch tool do? +

Put a card on a launch, with a priority and the reason it belongs there. The card does NOT move: it keeps its board, column, tag and epic — a launch is a lens. Adding a card that is already on the launch re-ranks it and replaces its reason and provenance. source is who decided: an agent classifying a card is. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Adrata MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
