# createTaskDependency

Create an FS/SS/FF scheduling edge with lag/lead between two items in the same plan (rendered as a Gantt arrow). FS = Finish-to-Start, SS = Start-to-Start, FF = Finish-to-Finish. lagDays: positive = lag, negative = lead/overlap. Rejects self-loops, duplicate (pred+succ+type) edges, cross-plan edges, and cycles.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `lagDays` | integer | no | Lag (positive) or lead (negative) in days. Default 0. |
| `successorId` | string | yes | ID of the downstream item (the dependent). |
| `predecessorId` | string | yes | ID of the upstream item (the driver). |
| `dependencyType` | string | yes | FS = Finish-to-Start, SS = Start-to-Start, FF = Finish-to-Finish. |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "createTaskDependency",
    "arguments": {
      "successorId": "<successorId>",
      "predecessorId": "<predecessorId>",
      "dependencyType": "<dependencyType>"
    }
  }
}
```

## Why createTaskDependency is rated Medium

This tool creates new data structures (task dependencies/Gantt arrows) within a plan, which is reversible and aligns with Write category. It does not delete, execute arbitrary code, or move money. The medium severity reflects that incorrect dependencies could disrupt project schedules and require correction, but the impact is scoped to a single plan and the operation is reversible (dependencies can be removed).

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states it creates scheduling edges (dependencies) between tasks: 'Create an FS/SS/FF scheduling edge... between two items in the same plan'."

## Use case

AI agents use createTaskDependency to create or update resources in Stable Baseline, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Stable Baseline environment.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Stable Baseline:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "createTaskDependency": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "createtaskdependency_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
