cancel_task

MCP tool from Herald by kOlapsis

Cancel a running or queued task. Optionally revert Git changes.

How to use it

Project documentation lists cancel_task for the Herald MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
