# dart-query MCP Tool Reference

dart-query為**首選**Dart MCP服務器。優於官方Dart MCP——更好的模式設計、DartQL批量操作、漸進發現、關係管理、令牌高效響應。

## Accessing dart-query Through slop-mcp (PREFERRED)

**始終通過slop-mcp調用dart-query工具**，使用`mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool`。提供集中MCP管理和一致訪問模式。

```yaml
# Pattern for ALL dart-query tool calls:
tool: mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool
params:
  mcp_name: "dart-query"
  tool_name: "<tool-name>"       # e.g. "get_task", "list_tasks", "update_task"
  parameters:                     # tool-specific parameters
    <param>: <value>
```

**Examples:**

```yaml
# Get workspace config
tool: mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool
params:
  mcp_name: "dart-query"
  tool_name: "get_config"
  parameters:
    include: ["dartboards", "statuses"]

# Get a specific task
tool: mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool
params:
  mcp_name: "dart-query"
  tool_name: "get_task"
  parameters:
    dart_id: "abc123def456"
    include_comments: true

# Update task status
tool: mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool
params:
  mcp_name: "dart-query"
  tool_name: "update_task"
  parameters:
    dart_id: "abc123def456"
    status: "Done"

# Add comment
tool: mcp__plugin_slop-mcp_slop-mcp__execute_tool
params:
  mcp_name: "dart-query"
  tool_name: "add_task_comment"
  parameters:
    dart_id: "abc123def456"
    text: "Task completed successfully"
```

## Tool Inventory (24 tools)

### Discovery & Configuration

#### `info` - Progressive Discovery
從此開始探索能力。

```yaml
parameters:
  level: enum [overview, group, tool]  # Detail level
  target: string                       # Group or tool name
```

#### `get_config` - Workspace Configuration
獲取受託人、看板、狀態、標籤、優先級、大小、文件夾。

```yaml
parameters:
  include: array [assignees, dartboards, statuses, tags, priorities, sizes, folders]
  cache_bust: boolean  # Force refresh (default: 5-minute cache)
```

**Pattern**: 會話開始時調用一次，緩存結果。僅在配置更改時使用`cache_bust: true`。

### Task CRUD

#### `create_task` - Create Task
```yaml
required:
  title: string       # Max 500 chars
  dartboard: string   # dart_id from get_config

optional:
  description: string    # Markdown supported
  status: string         # Status name or dart_id
  priority: integer      # 1-5 (1=lowest, 5=highest)
  size: integer          # 1-5
  start_at: string       # ISO8601
  due_at: string         # ISO8601
  assignees: [string]    # Array of assignee dart_ids
  tags: [string]         # Array of tag dart_ids
  parent_task: string    # Parent task dart_id (makes this a subtask)

  # Relationships (all dart_id arrays)
  subtask_ids: [string]     # Children of this task
  blocker_ids: [string]     # Tasks blocking THIS task
  blocking_ids: [string]    # Tasks THIS task blocks
  duplicate_ids: [string]   # Duplicate tasks
  related_ids: [string]     # Loosely related tasks
```

#### `get_task` - Get Task Details
```yaml
required:
  dart_id: string

optional:
  include_comments: boolean        # Default: false
  include_relationships: boolean   # Default: true (set false for smaller response)
  expand_relationships: boolean    # Default: false (fetches titles - extra API calls)
```

**Pattern**: 快速狀態檢查用`include_relationships: false`。向用戶顯示任務上下文時用`expand_relationships: true`。

#### `update_task` - Partial Update
```yaml
required:
  dart_id: string  # Also accepts "id" or "task_id"

# Pass fields to change directly alongside dart_id (flat, NO "updates" wrapper):
optional:
  title, description, status, priority (integer 1-5), size (integer 1-5),
  start_at, due_at, assignees, tags, dartboard, parent_task,
  subtask_ids, blocker_ids, blocking_ids, duplicate_ids, related_ids
  comment: string           # Add comment after update (non-blocking)
  add_to: {rel_field: [...]}    # Append IDs to relationship arrays
  remove_from: {rel_field: [...]} # Remove IDs from relationship arrays
```

**comment**: 單次調用中更新後發布評論。非阻塞——評論失敗，更新仍成功。替代舊的`update_task` + `add_task_comment`兩次調用模式。

**add_to / remove_from**: 增量修改關係數組，無需手動GET/合併/PUT。工具獲取當前值，合併/過濾，去重，發送完整替換。不能與同一字段上的直接關係字段組合。

```yaml
# Example: Add a blocker and comment in one call
update_task:
  dart_id: "task_C"
  status: "Blocked"
  add_to: { blocker_ids: ["task_A"] }
  comment: "Blocked by task_A — waiting for API review"
```

**ID aliases**: 所有修改工具接受`dart_id`、`id`或`task_id`——來自get/list響應的值可直接回傳。

**Common mistakes detected with helpful errors:**
- Wrapping fields in `updates: {...}` instead of flat
- Misspelled field names like `due_date` instead of `due_at`

#### `delete_task` - Soft Delete
```yaml
required:
  dart_id: string
```

移至回收站——可通過Dart網頁UI恢復。

## Key Design Patterns

### Identifiers
- **dart_id**為任務、看板、受託人、狀態、標籤、文件夾之通用ID格式
- 大多數工具接受看板、狀態、標籤、受託人的**名稱或dart_id**
- 使用`get_config`發現可用dart_id

### Dates
- 所有日期使用**ISO8601**格式：`2026-02-15T10:00:00Z`

### Relationships
- 數組使用**完全替換語義**——發送完整期望數組
- 添加：GET當前，追加，UPDATE完整數組
- 刪除：GET當前，過濾，UPDATE完整數組
- 清除：UPDATE為`[]`

### Safety
- `dry_run`在所有批量操作中默認為`true`
- `batch_delete_tasks`在`dry_run: false`時需要`confirm: true`
- `import_tasks_csv`默認為`validate_only: true`
- 所有刪除為軟刪除（可通過Dart網頁UI恢復）

### Detail Levels (list_tasks)
- `minimal`: dart_id, title, parent_task, blocker_ids, timestamps
- `standard`: + description, status, priority, assignees, dartboard, parent_task, blocker_ids
- `full`: all fields including all relationships

### Token Efficiency
- 任務計數和快速掃描用`detail_level: minimal`
- 儀表板和往返工作流用`detail_level: standard`
- 僅需全部關係類型時用`detail_level: full`
- get_task響應較小時用`include_relationships: false`
- get_config用`include`參數限制響應部分
