task-orchestrator-mcp
An MCP server for task orchestration.
Tools
createTask
Create a new task with optional parent and index positioning. This tool initiates a new workflow for handling user requests. The workflow is as follows: 1. Create tasks with the provided name and optional description. Tasks are organized in a hierarchical structure where subtasks can be created by specifying parentId. 2. Tasks are ordered by their position in the parent's tasks array. Use insertIndex to specify position (defaults to end). 3. After task creation, you MUST call the `startTask` tool to begin processing the task. 4. When the task is completed, call the `completeTask` tool with the task ID and resolution details. 5. If the following task is assigned, execute it by calling the `startTask` tool again. 6. Repeat this cycle until all tasks are completed.
getTask
Get a task by its ID
listTasks
List tasks from hierarchical structure, optionally filtered by parentId. Returns root tasks if no parentId specified, or direct children of specified parent task.
updateTask
Update an existing task
deleteTask
Delete a task by its ID
startTask
Start a task (change status to in_progress) 1. Run this tool to start the task. 2. When the task is complete, call the `completeTask` tool to complete the task.
completeTask
Complete a task and get the next task to execute. To start the next task, execute `startTask`.
