get_task

MCP tool from Task Queue MCP by TadMSTR

Retrieve a single task by UUID (resolves archived and dead-lettered tasks too)

How to use it

Project documentation lists get_task for the Task Queue MCP 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.
