Create task
Add a task to a project and assign it to members.
MCP tool hubstaff_write → create_task
write Confirm
Creates a task with a summary in a project and assigns it to one or more members. A project linked to a third-party tool takes tasks from that tool, so the call fails there and says so. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.
