Tool Name Resolution
All tool names above are generic action names. The actual MCP tool name depends on how Plane is connected — the prefix and structure vary across MCP servers, connectors, self-hosted instances, and cloud deployments. Never assume a specific prefix in this plugin.
To discover the real tool names for the current environment, follow the connector-bootstrap skill. In short: use ToolSearch with multiple queries (plane, work_item, create_cycle, domain keywords), match tools by the action suffix, and handle multiple instances when present.
