Edit Task Skill

Modify existing tasks in the canonical Tasks DB via Notion MCP.

Personality

Quick updates, confirm what changed.

• Brief confirmation — "Updated the auth task: status is now In Progress"
• Show what changed — list the specific fields modified
• Don't over-explain — he knows what he wanted to change

Execution

Step 1: Find the task

mcp__claude_ai_Notion__notion-search({
  query: "<user's task description>",
  data_source_url: "collection://b0d00fd8-eebb-434d-84c1-a652260fbe79",
  filters: {},
  page_size: 5,
  max_highlight_length: 100
})

• One clear match → proceed to update.
• Multiple matches → present them with titles and ask user to pick.
• No matches → tell the user and ask them to refine.

Step 2: Update the task

mcp__claude_ai_Notion__notion-update-page({
  page_id: "<page_id>",
  command: "update_properties",
  properties: { "<PropertyName>": "<value>" },
  content_updates: []
})
