# ticket_update

Update fields on an owned ticket — status moves (each one is auto-logged to the ticket's audit trail), reassignment, priority/effort/action_type recommendations, title/description edits, safe reparenting, opaque session/workflow links, effort points, order, and user-owned external refs. Clear flags are explicit so stdio clients never lose JSON nulls. System-owned provider, Accounting, plan, and batch refs are preserved and cannot be spoofed. The authenticated API-key UUID is stamped on the audit trail. Epic completion and terminal reopen fail closed on this generic tool until an explicit lifecycle operation supplies retry/version evidence.
