create_task · Repsona MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What create_task does on Repsona

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

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why create_task needs a policy

The tool creates new task entries in the Repsona project management system. This is a Write operation because it creates new data that can be reversed (tasks can be deleted or modified). It does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), permanently remove data (Destructive), involve financial transactions (Financial), or retrieve data (Read).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'create_task' and description states '新しいタスクを作成します' (creates a new task). This is a create operation that adds reversible data.
