Directions

Create via mcp__work-buddy__wb_run("task_create", params).

Infer defaults -- don't over-prompt: - task_text (required): short single-line. If given as argument, use directly. - urgency: default "medium". Only ask if ambiguous. - project: infer from context or ask. - due_date: only if user mentioned a deadline. - contract: infer from active contracts if obvious, otherwise skip. - summary: if user provides multi-line detail or says "with a note", pass here. Triggers linked note file.

After creation, confirm with task ID and one-line summary. Do NOT open the note or suggest follow-up steps unless asked.
