What is the difference between Folders and Projects in Wrike?

In Wrike, a Project is technically a Folder with added metadata such as owners, start/end dates, and project-specific statuses to help track deadlines and responsibility.

Can I move a task to a different project via AI?

Yes, you can use the `update_task` tool and provide the `addParents` or `removeParents` parameters in the attributes to change which project or folder the task belongs to.
