Can my AI automatically find the details and status of a specific task just by providing the Task GID?

Yes! Use the `get_task` tool with exactly the Task Global ID. Your agent will respond with complete metadata, assignee fields, and precise operational notes connected to that active ticket in seconds.

How do I easily list all the columns in an active agile sprint board?

Simply ask the agent to run the `list_sections` action on the target Project GID. It will compile all column phases (e.g., 'To Do', 'In Progress', 'QA') configured for that environment.

Does the integration permit modifying or deleting my workspace configurations?

No. The core set of tools focuses strictly on heavily querying and analyzing context—listing projects, analyzing metadata, checking tasks. State alteration operations are not currently exposed, assuring your workspaces are secure against destructive queries.
