WHAT IT DOES

What task_manage does on Claude Session Continuity

AI agents use task_manage to create or update resources in Claude Session Continuity — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Claude Session Continuity environment.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why task_manage needs a policy

The tool primarily creates and modifies project task records. While it includes a read operation (list), the dominant operations (add, complete, update) are Write operations that reversibly change task data. This is a data modification capability without permanent deletion or destructive effects, making it Write category.

From the tool's definition Tool description shows actions that create or modify data: 'add: 새 태스크 추가 (새 태스크 추가)' creates new tasks, 'complete: 태스크 완료' marks tasks as complete, 'update: 상태 변경' modifies task status. Only 'list' is read-only.
