Ce que ce workflow permet

Progress updates with MCP help you maintain consistent communication:

Résultats clés

  • Standardized updates: Consistent format for all progress comments
  • Weekly routine: Regular progress updates on key tasks
  • Curated task list: Focus on important tasks that need updates
  • Preview before posting: Review all updates before they're posted
  • Approval workflow: Explicit confirmation before posting comments

Prérequis

Workflow pas à pas

Step 1: Identify Key Tasks

Start by identifying which tasks need progress updates:

Task Identification Prompt

"Find my key tasks that need weekly progress updates: - List tasks I'm assigned to that are in progress - Show tasks due this week or next week - Include tasks in [project/board] that are active - Show me: task ID, title, current status, and last update date Present the list so I can select which ones need updates."

What the AI does:

  1. Calls list_tasks with filters (assigned, in_progress, due dates)
  2. Identifies active tasks needing updates
  3. Shows last update dates to identify stale tasks
  4. Presents curated task list

Step 2: Collect Progress Information

Prompt for updates on each task:

Progress Collection Prompt

"For each of these key tasks, ask me for a progress update: - What was accomplished this week? - What's the current status? - Any blockers or next steps? - Format the update as: 'Progress: [accomplished]. Status: [current]. Next: [next steps].' Collect updates for all tasks before posting anything."

What the AI does:

  1. Prompts for updates on each task
  2. Collects progress information
  3. Formats updates consistently
  4. Prepares standardized comment text

Step 3: Preview All Updates

Show all updates before posting:

Preview Prompt

"Show me a preview of all progress updates before posting: - Task ID and title - Comment text that will be posted - Format: 'Weekly Progress Update - [date]: [update text]' Present all updates in a clear list for review."

What the AI does:

  1. Formats all updates consistently
  2. Adds date stamps to comments
  3. Shows complete preview
  4. Waits for approval before posting

Step 4: Post Updates (After Approval)

Post all updates after confirmation:

Post Updates Prompt (Requires Approval)

"Post all the progress updates to their respective tasks: - Add each comment to the correct task - Use the standardized format we previewed - Show me confirmation after each comment is posted I must type 'CONFIRM' or 'YES, POST UPDATES' before you post any comments."

What the AI does:

  1. Waits for confirmation token
  2. Calls add_task_comment for each task
  3. Posts standardized progress updates
  4. Confirms each comment was posted

Complete Workflow Prompts

Here are complete, copy-paste ready prompts:

Full Weekly Progress Update Routine

"Help me post weekly progress updates to my key tasks: 1. Find my active tasks that need updates (assigned to me, in progress, due soon) 2. For each task, ask me for a progress update (what was accomplished, current status, next steps) 3. Format all updates consistently: 'Weekly Progress Update - [date]: Progress: [accomplished]. Status: [current]. Next: [next steps].' 4. Show me a preview of all updates before posting 5. Wait for my 'CONFIRM' or 'YES, POST UPDATES' before posting any comments Important: Always preview before posting, and only post after explicit confirmation."

Use this when: You want to do a complete weekly update routine

Quick Update for Specific Tasks

"Post a progress update to task [ID]: '[update text]'. Format it as 'Weekly Progress Update - [date]: [update]'. Show me the comment text first, then wait for my 'CONFIRM' before posting."

Use this when: You want to update a single task quickly

Batch Update for Project

"Find all my active tasks in [project] and help me post progress updates. Collect updates for each, preview them all, then post after I confirm with 'YES, POST UPDATES'."

Use this when: You want to update all tasks in a specific project

Workflow Variants

Variant 1: Weekly Status Update

Standard weekly progress update format:

"Post weekly progress updates to my key tasks: - Format: 'Weekly Update - [date]: [accomplished this week], [current status], [next steps]' - Focus on tasks due this week or next week - Include blockers if any Collect updates, preview, then post after confirmation."

What happens: AI uses weekly update format with date stamps

Variant 2: Sprint Progress Update

Update format for sprint-based work:

"Post sprint progress updates to my sprint tasks: - Format: 'Sprint Update - [sprint name]: [progress], [status], [blockers]' - Focus on tasks in the current sprint - Include sprint goal alignment Collect updates, preview, then post after confirmation."

What happens: AI uses sprint-specific update format

Variant 3: Manager Status Update

Update format for manager visibility:

"Post status updates to my key tasks for manager visibility: - Format: 'Status Update - [date]: [accomplished], [status], [risks/blockers], [ETA]' - Focus on high-priority or stakeholder-visible tasks - Include risk assessment Collect updates, preview, then post after confirmation."

What happens: AI uses manager-focused update format with risks and ETAs

Safety Patterns

✅ Preview and Approval Workflow

This workflow uses preview and approval for all write operations:

  • Collect first: Gather all updates before posting anything
  • Preview all: Show complete preview of all comments before posting
  • Confirmation tokens: Require "CONFIRM" or "YES, POST UPDATES" before posting
  • Standardized format: Consistent comment format for all updates
  • Date stamps: Automatic date inclusion for tracking

Troubleshooting

No Tasks Found

Symptom: No tasks identified for updates

Possible causes:

  • No tasks assigned to you
  • All tasks are completed or blocked
  • Filter criteria too narrow

Fix: Broaden search: "Find all my active tasks, not just due soon" or specify project/board

Updates Not Being Posted

Symptom: AI doesn't post comments even after approval

Possible causes:

  • Confirmation token not recognized
  • API key lacks write permissions
  • Task ID incorrect

Fix: Use exact confirmation: "CONFIRM" or "YES, POST UPDATES". Verify API key has write access.

Format Inconsistency

Symptom: Updates posted in different formats

Possible causes:

  • Format not specified clearly
  • AI interpreting format differently

Fix: Specify exact format: "Format all updates as: 'Weekly Progress Update - [date]: [text]'"
