Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/tools/comment-tools.ts:170-194 (registration)

  Registration of the 'update_comment' tool on the MCP server with its Zod schema (comment_id, comment_text, assignee, resolved) and handler that delegates to commentsClient.updateComment.

  // Register update_comment tool
  server.tool(
    'update_comment',
    'Update an existing ClickUp comment\'s properties including text, assignee, and resolved status.',
    {
      comment_id: z.string().describe('The ID of the comment to update'),
      comment_text: z.string().describe('The new text content of the comment'),
      assignee: z.number().optional().describe('The ID of the user to assign to the comment'),
      resolved: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether the comment is resolved')
    },
    async ({ comment_id, ...commentParams }) => {
      try {
        const result = await commentsClient.updateComment(comment_id, commentParams as UpdateCommentParams);
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
        };
      } catch (error: any) {
        console.error('Error updating comment:', error);
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Error updating comment: ${error.message}` }],
          isError: true
        };
      }
    }
  );

• src/tools/comment-tools.ts:180-193 (handler)

  Handler function for the 'update_comment' tool. It calls commentsClient.updateComment(comment_id, commentParams) and returns the result as JSON, or an error message on failure.

  async ({ comment_id, ...commentParams }) => {
    try {
      const result = await commentsClient.updateComment(comment_id, commentParams as UpdateCommentParams);
      return {
        content: [{ type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
      };
    } catch (error: any) {
      console.error('Error updating comment:', error);
      return {
        content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Error updating comment: ${error.message}` }],
        isError: true
      };
    }
  }

• src/tools/comment-tools.ts:174-179 (schema)

  Zod input schema for the 'update_comment' tool: requires comment_id (string) and comment_text (string), optional assignee (number) and resolved (boolean).

  {
    comment_id: z.string().describe('The ID of the comment to update'),
    comment_text: z.string().describe('The new text content of the comment'),
    assignee: z.number().optional().describe('The ID of the user to assign to the comment'),
    resolved: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether the comment is resolved')
  },

• src/clickup-client/comments.ts:167-169 (helper)

  The CommentsClient.updateComment method that sends a PUT request to /comment/{commentId} with the provided params.

  async updateComment(commentId: string, params: UpdateCommentParams): Promise<Comment> {
    return this.client.put(`/comment/${commentId}`, params);
  }

• src/clickup-client/comments.ts:78-82 (schema)

  The UpdateCommentParams TypeScript interface defining the shape: comment_text (string), assignee (optional number), resolved (optional boolean).
