Can I see the subtasks for a specific task?

Yes! Use the `get_task_details` tool with the task ID. The agent will fetch the full task record, which includes all subtasks nested within it.

How do I find all the tasks in a specific list?

Use the `list_list_tasks` tool. Provide the list ID, and your agent will return all tasks in that list, including their current statuses and priorities.

Where do I find my ClickUp API Token?

Log in to ClickUp, go to your **Personal Settings**, select **Apps**, and generate a **Personal API Token** under the API section.
