Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Fizzy MCP Tools (7)

fizzy_account
Get, set, or list accounts for API calls. Manages the session default so you don't need to pass `account_slug` on every tool call. **When to use:** - List available accounts to see what you have access to - Set working account after discovering accounts - Check current default before operations **Don't use when:** Operating across multiple accounts simultaneously — pass `account_slug` explicitly instead. **Arguments:** - `action` (required): "get" to check current default, "set" to change it, "list" to see available accounts - `account_slug` (required for set): Account slug (e.g., "897362094") **Returns:** - get: `{ "action": "get", "account_slug": "897362094" }` or `null` if not set - set: `{ "action": "set", "account_slug": "897362094" }` - list: `{ "action": "list", "accounts": [{ "slug": "...", "name": "...", "id": "..." }] }` **Related:** Most tools auto-resolve account via FIZZY_ACCOUNT env var or single-account auto-detection.
fizzy_boards
List boards in the account with column summaries. Get an overview of boards and their column structure including card counts. **When to use:** - Discover board IDs and column IDs for subsequent operations - See card counts per column across all boards - Find the right board/column to create cards or triage **Fizzy column conventions:** Every board has three implicit columns not returned in the columns array: - **Maybe?** (inbox): Untriaged cards. Cards here have no `column_id`. New cards start here. - **Not Now**: Deferred cards. Move here via `status: "not_now"` in `fizzy_task`. - **Done**: Closed cards. Move here via `status: "closed"` in `fizzy_task`. The `columns` array only contains custom workflow columns (e.g., "In Progress", "Backlog"). To move a card from a column back to Maybe?, use `fizzy_task` with `column_id` omitted and no status change. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `limit` (optional): Max items to return, 1-100 (default: 25) - `cursor` (optional): Continuation cursor from previous response **Returns:** JSON with items and pagination metadata. ```json {"items": [{"id": "board_1", "name": "Project", "columns": [{"id": "col_1", "name": "Backlog"}]}], "pagination": {...}} ``` **Related:** Use board ID with `fizzy_task` to create cards. Use column IDs for triage.

fizzy_search
Search for cards with filters. Find cards matching criteria or review board contents. **When to use:** - Find cards by tag, assignee, or board - Filter by index category (closed, stalled, golden, etc.) **Don't use when:** You already know the card number — use `fizzy_get_card` instead. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `board_id` (optional): Filter to cards on this board - `indexed_by` (optional): Filter by index category: closed | not_now | all | stalled | postponing_soon | golden - `tag_ids` (optional): Filter to cards with ALL these tag IDs - `assignee_ids` (optional): Filter to cards assigned to ANY of these user IDs - `sorted_by` (optional): Sort order: newest | oldest | recently_active - `terms` (optional): Search terms to filter cards by text content - `limit` (optional): Max items, 1-100 (default: 25) - `cursor` (optional): Continuation cursor from previous response **Returns:** JSON with items and pagination metadata. ```json {"items": [{"number": 42, "title": "...", ...}], "pagination": {"returned": 25, "has_more": true, "next_cursor": "..."}} ``` **Related:** Use card number with `fizzy_get_card` for full details.
fizzy_get_card
Get full details of a card by its number or ID. Retrieve complete card data including description, steps count, and metadata. **When to use:** - Need full description or metadata for a specific card - Check step completion status or see all tags/assignees **Don't use when:** Scanning multiple cards - use `fizzy_search` first. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (recommended): The human-readable `#` number from URLs/lists (e.g., 42) - `card_id` (alternative): The UUID from API responses. Use `card_number` when possible. **IMPORTANT:** Provide `card_number` (integer) OR `card_id` (string UUID), not both. The `card_number` is the `#` visible in the UI (e.g., #42). The `card_id` is the internal UUID. **Returns:** JSON with id, number, title, description (markdown), status, board_id, column_id, tags array, assignees array, steps_count, completed_steps_count, comments_count, url, created_at, updated_at, closed_at (null if open). Example: `{"id": "card_abc", "number": 42, "title": "Fix bug", "status": "open", "steps_count": 3, ...}` **Related:** Use `fizzy_comment` or `fizzy_step` for deeper interaction.
fizzy_task
Create or update a card with full control over status, tags, steps, and column placement. **Mode detection:** - `card_number` absent → CREATE mode (requires `board_id` + `title`) - `card_number` present → UPDATE mode **Create mode:** Creates card, then best-effort: adds steps, toggles tags, triages to column. **Update mode:** Updates title/description if provided. Changes status (open/closed/not_now). Manages tags with add/remove. Moves card to column (from inbox or another column). Same-column moves are skipped. **Fizzy column conventions:** - **Maybe?** (inbox): Cards with no `column_id`. This is where new cards start. - **Not Now**: Set `status: "not_now"` to move here (defers the card). - **Done**: Set `status: "closed"` to move here (completes the card). - **Custom columns**: Use `column_id` from `fizzy_boards` to triage to workflow columns. **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (optional): Card to update. Omit to create new card. - `board_id` (optional): Board ID. Required for create mode. - `title` (optional): Card title. Required for create mode. - `description` (optional): Card body in markdown - `status` (optional): open | closed | not_now — changes card lifecycle state - `column_id` (optional): Move card to this column (works from inbox or other columns; skipped if already there) - `position` (optional): top | bottom (default: bottom) — position in column - `add_tags` (optional): Tag titles to add - `remove_tags` (optional): Tag titles to remove - `steps` (optional): Checklist items to create (create mode only) **Returns:** JSON with `mode`, `card` (id, number, title, url, status), `operations` summary, `failures` array. **Examples:** Create: `{board_id: "...", title: "New task", steps: ["Step 1", "Step 2"]}` Update: `{card_number: 42, status: "closed", add_tags: ["done"]}`
fizzy_comment
Manage comments on a card: create, list, update, or delete. **Actions:** - `create` (default): Post a new comment - `list`: Get all comments on a card - `update`: Edit an existing comment (requires `comment_id` + `body`) - `delete`: Remove a comment (requires `comment_id`) **Arguments:** - `action` (optional): "create" | "list" | "update" | "delete" (default: "create") - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (required): Card number - `comment_id` (optional): Required for update/delete - `body` (optional): Comment body in markdown. Required for create/update **Returns:** JSON with comment details, list of comments, or deletion confirmation.
fizzy_step
Create, complete, update, uncomplete, or delete a step on a card. **Mode detection:** - `step` absent → CREATE (requires `content`) - `step` present, no other params → COMPLETE (default action) - `step` + `content` → UPDATE content - `step` + `completed: false` → UNCOMPLETE - `step` + `delete: true` → DELETE **Arguments:** - `account_slug` (optional): Uses session default if omitted - `card_number` (required): Card number containing the step - `step` (optional): Content substring to match OR 1-based index to identify existing step - `content` (optional): Step text for create or update - `completed` (optional): Set completion state (true or false) - `delete` (optional): Delete the step **Returns:** JSON with step `id`, `content`, `completed` status. **Examples:** - Create: `{card_number: 42, content: "Write tests"}` - Complete: `{card_number: 42, step: "Write tests"}` - Uncomplete: `{card_number: 42, step: 1, completed: false}` - Update: `{card_number: 42, step: 1, content: "Write unit tests"}` - Delete: `{card_number: 42, step: "Write tests", delete: true}`

Karea MCP Tools (50)

karea_list_projects
List all Karea projects with their IDs
karea_list_tasks
List tasks in a project. Defaults to open tasks (open, in_progress, blocked, review, backlog) capped at 200 to keep responses small. To see closed tasks pass status="done" and optionally closedSince (e.g. "14d", "7d", "24h"). To list everything, pass status="all". Optional filters (category, priority, assignee, search) narrow the result server-side — prefer them over post-filtering.
karea_create_task
Create a new task in a project and return it with its visual ID (e.g. KA42), status, priority and category. Defaults when omitted: status open, priority 3, the first category of the project. Use karea_quick_task to log something already finished, or karea_doing for work in progress.
karea_edit_task
Update fields of an existing task (title, status, priority, deadline, category, assignee, description, tags, or add a note) located by visual ID, name or UUID. Only the fields you pass change; the rest are left untouched. Returns the updated task.
karea_close_task
Mark a task as done: sets status to done and stamps the close time. Reports any unmet closing requisites first unless confirm is set. To close several tasks at once use karea_done.
karea_delete_task
Permanently delete a task and its history. Irreversible; requires confirm=true. To merely close a task instead, use karea_close_task.
karea_quick_task
Log something you already finished as a done task (it shows up in Recap) and return it. Status is always done; relative-time params set when it happened. For in-progress work use karea_doing instead.
karea_doing
Create a task you are working on right now (status: in_progress)
karea_view_task
Return one task with all its details (status, priority, deadline, category, description, notes, requisites, links), located by visual ID, name or UUID. Pass includeContext=true to also inline the task's AI Context in the response — avoids a follow-up karea_get_context round-trip. Read-only.
karea_view_tasks
Return details for MANY tasks in one response. Pass an array of task identifiers (visualIds, names, or UUIDs) and get one consolidated response with a block per task, separated by dividers. Use this instead of calling karea_view_task N times when you want to inspect a batch. Max 50 per call. Read-only.
karea_create_project
Create a new Karea project owned by you and seed it with the default categories (Coding, Testing, Documenting, Reviewing). Returns the new project id. To add a category to an existing project, use karea_create_category instead.
karea_delete_project
Permanently delete a project and everything inside it (tasks, categories, notes, history). Irreversible; requires confirm=true.
