task-orchestrator-mcp

Create a new task with optional parent and index positioning.

This tool initiates a new workflow for handling user requests. To manage tasks, you MUST always run this tool first. 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.
