create-task adds a new row to the user Notion tasks database via MCP.
About
The create-task skill uses Notion MCP to add a row to the user tasks database from a natural language request. It extracts the task title plus optional due date, status, owner or assignee, and related project or page. The agent prefers databases whose name or description clearly indicates tasks or todo items, asking the user to choose when multiple candidates exist. Created rows map available properties including Title, Due date, Status, Owner, and Project. Confirmation returns the task title, key properties, and a link or identifier. If required properties are missing or the tasks database cannot be identified confidently, the skill asks a concise clarification question before making changes. Use for quick task capture during coding sessions without leaving the editor.
- Creates Notion task rows via MCP with sensible defaults.
- Maps title, due date, status, owner, and project properties.
- Identifies the correct tasks database or asks user to choose.
- Returns confirmation with title, properties, and link.
- Clarifies ambiguous database or missing required fields first.
