Example call

{
  "arguments": {
    "date": "<date>",
    "detail": "<detail>",
    "title": "<title>"
  },
  "name": "needFromOwner"
}

Arguments

datestringrequiredThe day this lands on My Day, YYYY-MM-DD. Today in the owner's own timezone unless a later day is meant.
detailstringrequiredEverything the owner needs in order to act, as a directive they can run from this text alone: a header per ask, NUMBERED STEPS with the exact strings to type, click or send, the options spelled out, and one closing line saying what to…
listIdstringoptionalThe task list a need files into, from listTaskLists. The rail remembers it, so pass the Gates list once and every later need lands there without being told again.
prioritystringoptionalHow hard the push may reach for the owner, read against their own reach preference (readOwnerReachPreferences). Default "high". "urgent" only for what cannot wait for morning.
replyLinestringoptionalThe exact words the owner replies in Telegram to close this row, short and unambiguous: "74 merged", "env set", "bot picture set". The message tells them to type it, and typing it completes the Task and answers in the chat. Omit it and…
titlestringrequiredThe ask itself, one line, in the owner's words. Not a status line.
unblocksstringoptionalThe row or page this ask unblocks, as its link. Carried on the owed ledger beside the ask so every later seat sees what waits on it.

Returns

Returns the Task URL, the My Day URL, and a delivery receipt per channel the push tried or skipped.
