Short answer

How can I add tasks to specific channels using my AI?

Your agent uses the Sunsama MCP to scan your existing channels and contexts, then places new tasks exactly where they belong. This keeps your workspace organized automatically. You'll see your tasks appear in the right place immediately.

Task destinations

Where your tasks land.

The AI maps your requests to your existing Sunsama structure.

CONTEXT

Correct context placement

The AI identifies the right context for a task. This ensures your work stays grouped by project or life area.

CHANNEL

Specific channel routing

Your agent finds the exact channel you named. It puts the task there so you don't have to hunt for it later.

ORGANIZED

Clean task lists

Because the AI handles the filing, your lists stay tidy. You avoid the clutter of a single, massive inbox.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

If the AI can't find a matching channel, it will ask you for clarification. You decide where ambiguous tasks go.

The workflow

What your AI does when a task arrives.

The AI moves from discovery to execution in a few quick steps.

  1. Locate destinations

    The agent scans your Sunsama setup to see where tasks can live. It looks at your available channels and contexts.

    list_channelslist_contexts

  2. Match the request

    The AI compares your natural language request against the list of channels it found. It picks the best fit.

    list_channels

  3. Create the entry

    Once the destination is set, the agent writes the task into Sunsama. The task is now live in your planner.

    create_task

  4. Confirm placement

    The agent tells you exactly which channel the task was added to. You can then verify it's in the right spot.
