Every tool description now leads with what the tool does AND when to reach for
it, since MCP clients rank tools by that text. Per-parameter prose moved onto
the parameters as [Description], exhaustive result-shape enumerations and
design/history rationale dropped, and the repeated boilerplate clauses
(lean-task-ref, batch cap, refused-while-Running) pulled into McpToolDocs,
which also documents the style for future tools.
Tool-level description text: 20494 -> 13605 chars (-34%); combined with the new
parameter descriptions 18517 (-10%).
Closes gaps that caused wrong calls rather than just verbose ones:
- list_task_attachments returns metadata only, no file content
- run_task_now shares continue_task's single override slot and throws when busy
- list_runs is ordered oldest-first and feeds get_run
- workingDir on create_list/update_list is an existing local git repo path,
unvalidated until the first task run
- get_task_worktree's behind=0 also means the main ref was unreachable
Removes get_task_status_values: a whole tool entry for static reference text.
GetTask's description is now the canonical place for status meanings.
The merge-helper ("Let Claude handle it") system prompt now calls a new
handoff_list_handler MCP tool once every surviving task is enhanced,
instead of continuing into Phases 3-5 in the same session -- avoiding
paying for Phases 0-2's dedupe/rewrite context on every polling round of
the run/review/merge phases.
The tool broadcasts HandoffRequested; Mission Control opens a second
ConPTY tile for the SAME handler task id (no new task, HandlerBaseCommit
untouched) running a fresh handoff brief that starts at Phase 3. The
original tile stays open. Adds PromptKind.MergeHelperHandoff,
InteractiveLaunchSpecService.BuildForMergeHelperHandoffAsync, and the
GetMergeHelperHandoffLaunchSpec hub method.
