Create invoice
Create a draft invoice for a client or a completed job.
MCP tool jobber_write → create_invoice
write
Creates an invoice in Draft status from a job or from line items. A draft is not sent and not due, so create_invoice reaches no one and runs without asking first. Check the total, then send it with send_invoice.

| client_id string required | string | Client ID from list_clients. |
| job_id string | string | Invoice this job. Without it, pass line_items. |
| line_items array | array | Items with name, quantity and unit_price. |
