Illustrative before / after

Illustrative case: a user asks to change a task’s priority, but semantic results contain several related tasks.

Before

Update the first related search result and add helpful unrequested edits.

After

Confirm the exact task and requested field; inspect the outcome before reporting completion.

Verify the target

Owner role · Agent

Evidence: The task reference matches the user’s selected work and workspace.

Bound the requested change

Owner role · User

Evidence: The proposed field change contains no extra owner/date/scope edits.

Check the saved outcome

Owner role · Editor

Evidence: The result and later read evidence distinguish requested from applied values.

Decision to make: Resolve the exact intended task and field before invoking tb_update_task.

Illustrative update boundary

Invented planning text. Adapt it to your evidence and confirmed owners.

Target: the user-confirmed task reference.
Requested change: one explicit field.
Excluded: unrequested description, ownership or scheduling edits.
Readback: confirm saved evidence before calling the operation complete.
