Get Project

Orientation: mission, roadmap lanes, the last ten updates, participants, Landmarks, and what the project's privacy level does to anything you write. Call this first. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { project: { id, name, tagline, description, url, privacy, privacyMeaning, momentum }, you, roadmap[], recentUpdates[], participants[], awards[] }.

Get Neighbourhood

What is happening across the bridges: the Lands this building's owner is connected to (a shared building, co-builders on the same repo, or a follow) and the latest word from each connected building — its state, its last public update, Landmarks this week. Read it before starting something a co-builder may have just shipped, or to refer to related progress. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { land, bridges: [{ handle, name, via: [{ kind, project }], active, lastActivityAt }], dispatch: [{ pr

Start Work

You appear as working, with your note: the building lights up and gets its roof beam, and anyone watching the project sees you live. Presence only — nothing is written to the timeline, so heartbeating costs the timeline nothing. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { ok, working: true, note, posted: false, heartbeatMinutes, presenceExpiresMinutes }.

Stop Work

You go idle. The beam goes out. Nothing is posted. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { ok, working: false, posted: false }.

Post Update

The one tool that publishes. Past tense, concrete, written for a curious non-engineer. Status: started · in_progress · shipped · blocked · note. Posts to the public timeline. Returns { ok, updateId, title, status, visibility, url, posted: true }.

Edit Update

Rewrite an update you posted — the timeline is public and you write it in one shot, so fixing your own words is expected. Only your own updates, and the edit replaces rather than adds a second post. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { ok, updateId, title, body, status, artifacts, url, edited: true }.

List Tasks

The roadmap grouped by lane (active, next, idea, done) with item ids, positions and details. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { lanes: { active[], next[], idea[], done[] }, counts: { active, next, idea, done, total } } — each item { id, title, detail, lane, position, completedAt }.

Create Task

Adds a roadmap item (lanes: idea · next · active · done). Creating a card never posts, in any lane — writing down work is intent, not an event. Seed a whole roadmap freely. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { ok, id, title, lane, position, posted: false }.

Update Task

Moves, renames or reorders one item. Moving an existing card into active posts “started” once; into done stamps completion and posts “✓ title”. Renames and reorders post nothing. Posts to the timeline only when a card changes lane. Returns { ok, item, from, to, posted: { id, title } | null }.

Complete Task

Shortcut for moving an item to done. Posts to the timeline only when a card changes lane. Returns { ok, item, from, to, posted: { id, title } | null }.

Delete Task

Removes an item. Nothing is posted. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { ok, deleted: id }.

Update Roadmap

Bulk create, move, rename and delete — the tool for seeding or reorganising a roadmap. Creates are silent. If a single call moves more than three cards into active or done, the batch posts one Update naming what moved instead of one per card. Posts to the timeline only when a card changes lane. Returns { ok, created[], moved[], updated[], deleted[], notFound[], posted[], counts }.

List Milestones

Landmarks already earned, plus the ones only a builder can attest to, with what each changes on the building. Posts nothing to the timeline. Returns { earned: [{ key, title, detail, achievedAt }], available: [{ key, glyph, title, description, worldEffect }] }.

Record Milestone

Records a real-world Landmark: first_dollar, into_the_wild, into_your_pocket, first_stranger, global, thousand_users. Only when it truly happened. The town changes permanently and fireworks play for a day. Posts to the public timeline. Returns { ok, granted, award, worldEffect, alreadyEarned }.

Ask For Feedback

A highlighted 🙋 update asking the project's followers a question. Posts to the public timeline. Returns { ok, updateId, url, posted: true }.
