Tool Schema Reminder

First time calling a tool this session? Use

get_tool_schema(server_name, tool_name)

before

call_tool

to get correct parameters. Schemas are cached per session—no need to refetch.

Action

Create a bug task with the following parameters:

• title

  : The bug title from user input

• task_type

  : "bug"

• priority

  : 1 (high - bugs are important)

Parse the user input:

• Try splitting on common delimiter patterns:

  -

  ,

  --

  ,

  —

  (em dash),

  –

  (en dash)
• Use regex pattern

  \s*[-–—]+\s*

  to split once (first match only)
• If a delimiter is found, assign the left part as title and right part as description
• If no delimiter is found, use entire input as title and set description to null

call_tool(
    server_name="gobby-tasks",
    tool_name="create_task",
    arguments={
        "title": "<parsed title>",
        "description": "<parsed description or null>",  # Use null, not empty string
        "task_type": "bug",
        "priority": 1,
        "session_id": "<session_id>"  # Required - from session context
    }
)

Error Handling

Missing session_id

The

session_id

parameter is required. If session context is unavailable:

1. User-facing error: Display "Session context unavailable — please sign in or retry"
2. Behavior: Fail gracefully with a clear error message; do not create partial tasks
3. Fallback options:
   • Prompt the user to provide a session ID manually
   • Implement retry logic with exponential backoff if the session service is temporarily unavailable
   • Check

     get_current_session

     from

     gobby-sessions

     to obtain or refresh the session

# Example error handling
session_id = get_session_context()
if not session_id:
    return error("Session context unavailable — please sign in or retry")

After creating, confirm with the task reference (e.g., "Created bug #123: Fix login timeout").
