Update Project State

Instructions

1. Parse arguments

   • Extract from $ARGUMENTS:
     • project_id — the project identifier
     • field — the state field to update
     • value — the new value to set
     • reason — why this change is being made
   • If any required parameter is missing, ask the user to provide it.

2. Check current state

   • Call get_state with the project_id to read the current value of the field.
   • Log the current value for reference before making changes.

3. Attempt to set state

   • Call set_state with project_id, field, value, and reason.
   • If the call succeeds, proceed to verification.

4. Handle approval flow (if needed)

   • If set_state fails due to ownership or permission restrictions:
     • Call request_approval to submit the state change for approval.
     • Notify the state owner via send_dm that an approval is pending.
     • Report to the user that the change requires approval and is pending.
     • Stop here — do not retry.

5. Verify the update

   • Call get_state again with the same project_id and confirm the field now holds the new value.
   • Report success with both the old and new values.

6. Notify if appropriate

   • If the state change is significant (e.g., status transitions like "in-progress" to "done"), send a notification to the relevant channel via send_message.

$ARGUMENTS

• /update-state <project_id> <field> <value> <reason>
• Example: /update-state proj-123 status in-review "Feature implementation complete, ready for review"
