Todoist MCP Server

todoist_tasks_reorder_bulk

Reorder multiple Todoist tasks at once by specifying their new positions. Use this batch reordering to reorganize your task lists.

Instructions

Reorder multiple tasks at once by specifying their new positions. Efficient for reorganizing task lists.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
itemsYesArray of task IDs with their new order positions
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations, the description carries full burden but only states the action. It does not disclose behavioral traits such as whether reordering affects task sections, permission requirements, or behavior when duplicate positions are specified.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two concise sentences front-load the purpose without extraneous information. Every word serves a functional role.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given only one parameter and no output schema, the description is minimally adequate but lacks details about constraints (e.g., whether child_order must be unique or sequential) and edges cases.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% with clear descriptions for each parameter. The description adds 'specifying their new positions' but does not significantly enrich the parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description explicitly states 'Reorder multiple tasks at once by specifying their new positions' with the verb 'Reorder', resource 'tasks', and scope 'multiple', clearly distinguishing from sibling tools like todoist_task_reorder.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The phrase 'Efficient for reorganizing task lists' implies usage context but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., todoist_task_reorder). No when-not or exclusions are provided.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
