Scan project source files for TODO, FIXME, HACK, and XXX comments and return them as suggested tasks. Read-only — does not create tasks automatically. Review the suggestions and use task_add to persist the ones you want. Optionally scope the scan to a specific subdirectory.
AI agents call task_suggest to retrieve information from Claude Session Continuity without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
The tool explicitly states it is read-only, scanning source files and returning suggestions without modifying any data. It cannot create tasks or alter files in any way.

Scan project source files for TODO, FIXME, HACK, and XXX comments and return them as suggested tasks. Read-only — does not create tasks automatically. Review the suggestions and use task_add to persist the ones you want. Optionally scope the scan to a specific subdirectory. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Claude Session Continuity MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Claude Session Continuity MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for task_suggest: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Claude Session Continuity. Nothing to install.
task_suggest is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the task_suggest rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for task_suggest. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
task_suggest is provided by the Claude Session Continuity MCP server (leesgit/claude-session-continuity-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
