Draft vs. published
Every change starts life as a draft: a private idea with no workflow status, hidden from the main Changes list. The list has three views — Published, Drafts, and All — so drafts stay out of the shared worklist until someone signs off. A draft leaves draft state one of two ways:draft is a separate flag from status — a draft simply has no status yet.
You can’t set a workflow status while a change is still a draft; publish or
discard it first.
Status workflow
Once published, a change carries one of five statuses:backlog, todo,
in_progress, done, and cancelled for work you abandon. They’re ordinary
workflow states — set whichever reflects reality, there’s no forced
progression.
Anatomy of a change
Change types
Every change carries a type that categorises the kind of work it involves. Five types are built in and available to every org:
Owners and admins can define custom types for the org under
Settings → Organization → Change types — give each a name and a color. A
change defaults to Generic; set its type from the change detail page or when
drafting it. Deleting a custom type reverts any change using it back to Generic.
Acting on a change
From a change’s detail page — or its card on a finding — a few actions sit alongside the title:Linking findings
A change links to findings through thesolution_findings join, and the
relationship is many-to-many: one change can address several findings, and
you can link or unlink them as your understanding changes. Deleting a change
removes its finding links by cascade but never deletes the underlying
findings — the problems outlive any single proposed fix.
A finding’s detail page surfaces the changes linked to it, so you can track
the fix alongside the problem. See Findings.
Programmatic access
Changes are MCP-only today — there is no/v1/changes REST
endpoint. Over MCP an agent can draft and manage them end to end:
list_solutions/get_solution/list_solution_findings— read.create_solution— draft one change (optionally with atype). It inserts exactly one draft per call, so never bundle several ideas into one body — call it again for each distinct suggestion.publish_solution(→backlog) /discard_solution(→cancelled) — move out of draft.update_solution— edit title, description, status, or assignee.link_finding_to_solution/unlink_finding_from_solution— manage linked findings.
