Today the MCP's create_task / update_task can set a due date but not recurrence. An assistant can create or update a task, but can't make it recur — every recurring task still has to be opened and configured by hand in the app. Please expose the complete recurrence configuration through the MCP so an AI assistant can READ a task's current recurrence settings and CREATE or ADJUST them. All of the options in the task's "Recurring" panel should be programmatically gettable and settable, with the same control a user has in the UI (read the current values, check/uncheck the toggles, change the dropdowns, and save):
  • Frequency / interval: Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly, and Custom intervals.
  • Recurrence trigger (method): e.g. "On status change: Closed", as well as date-based / scheduled triggers and any "Options" sub-settings.
  • "Create new task": toggle on/off.
  • "Recur forever": toggle, plus the end condition (end date or number of occurrences) when it's off.
  • "Update status to:": toggle, plus the target status applied when the task recurs (e.g. "TO DO").
  • "Sync recurrence to due date": toggle.
The goal is for an assistant to fully manage recurring workflows end to end, instead of setting up a task and leaving its recurrence half-configured for a human to finish manually.
Thanks!
