Add a task to a lead with a deadline, a responsible user and a comment.

Kommo MCP tools: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/kommo.md

MCP tool: `kommo_write → create_task`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Creates the task as Chat → Task → Set does on the lead card and returns its task_id. Kommo reminds the responsible user about the task, so it reaches a colleague. An unknown task_type fails and lists the types of the account. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `lead_id` | integer | yes | Lead ID from list_leads or get_lead. |
| `task_type` | string | no | Follow-up or Meeting, or the name of a custom type an admin added. Default Follow-up. |
| `deadline` | string | yes | ISO 8601 date and time. |
| `responsible_user_id` | integer | no | User the task is assigned to. Default is the lead owner. |
| `comment` | string | no | Task comment. |

## For AI agents: sign your user up

Is your user asking you to sign them up for Cotlet? You can do it for them, no account or key needed.

1. Read the fields and their allowed values: GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests
2. Ask the user for each value: email, apps, what you will do with them. If they leave the password to you, generate a strong one and show it to them.
3. Show the user what you will send, then POST it as JSON to https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests.

One call creates the account and sends the access request; we email the user when access is granted.
