Archive Done Tasks
archive_done_tasks is one of the 32 MCP tools in Weft, the AI task manager you run by talking to Claude, Cursor, Codex or ChatGPT through one MCP endpoint. Clear the Done column: every task in it leaves the board into the archive — still found by search/fetch and still shown in its sprint’s history, never deleted. Completing a sprint archives that sprint’s finished tasks automatically; this handles the rest. It takes the whole column in one call, with no count and no way back from the MCP surface — restore_task restores from the trash, not from the archive — which is why it is marked destructive: a client should confirm with the user before calling it.
Weft is the AI task manager for solo founders and small teams.
Arguments
This tool takes no arguments.
Returns
The number of tasks archived.
Annotations
- destructive. The tool changes state in a way that cannot be undone. Clients should ask the user to confirm.
- idempotent. Calling the tool twice with the same arguments has the same effect as calling it once.
