update_task — Tell a call where its task has got to
Say where a task has got to. The call it came from sees it in its chat: "working" when you start, "done" with a short note and the link to what you made (a pull request, a document), or "blocked" with what you need from a person.
When to use it
While working on a task: "working" when you start, "done" with a short note and the link to what you made, or "blocked" with what you need. The call it came from sees it in its chat.
