Set up new project structures

The `create_project` tool lets your agent establish a brand-new work area using a JSON string. This action defines the scope for all subsequent tracking and feedback. It handles initial setup, so you don't have to run multiple commands just to get started. You tell it what the project is, and it gets created.

Track issues and tasks

Need to log a bug or assign work? Use `create_task` to generate a new issue within an existing zipBoard project. This creates a dedicated record for tracking progress. Your agent can then use `list_tasks` to pull up all open items, giving you immediate visibility into the team's workload.

Get organization and file details

Use `get_organization` when you need high-level info about the company structure. It pulls core organizational data so your agent knows who owns what. If you just need to see the assets, `list_files` retrieves all project URLs and files associated with a given board.
