Managed cards enforce fully specified details and adjacent Backlog \u2192 Todo \u2192 Running \u2192 Review \u2192 Done transitions with persistent comments and evidence. Contract Map actions are optional advisory metadata unless an operator explicitly enabled strict enforcement. Use verify_completion to validate executable success criteria before Done.";
-var KANBAN_TOOL_USAGE_HINT = "Use this for durable project kanban state. Read workbench when orienting across boards; it returns bounded Now, Next, Blocked, Review lanes and operational alerts. Before coding mutation, create a fully detailed card on a managed board with executable acceptance criteria, then call start_task. The runtime blocks product mutations until start_task binds a ready Running card. Do not create, inspect, repair, or enable a Contract Map during ordinary work; every map mode stays off the execution and completion path. Worker completion enters Review; Done requires passed acceptance criteria and review evidence. Surface existing strict-map findings for operator review without stopping work to repair them.";
+var KANBAN_TOOL_DESCRIPTION = "Durable project task boards: create and move cards, record checks, notes, links and assignments. The board is a record of the work, not a permit for it \u2014 nothing here gates other tools. Managed boards additionally enforce ordered Backlog \u2192 Todo \u2192 Running \u2192 Review \u2192 Done transitions; release_managed_lifecycle turns that off.";
+var KANBAN_TOOL_USAGE_HINT = 'Track substantial or multi-step work so it survives the session; a trivial edit or a question needs no card. Work stays on ONE board: call list_boards first and add_task to the board this project already uses. create_board is for a genuinely separate line of work, not for each new piece of it \u2014 a second board splits the same effort in two, and a board holding a single card is the usual sign. Common flow: list_boards or search_tasks to orient, add_task to record work, start_task when you begin, update_check with checkStatus "passed" to tick acceptance criteria (read their ids from get_task), then transition_task. On a managed board a refused transition names the field it wants \u2014 supply it and retry. When the acceptance criterion is something a machine can run, say so: set checkType ("command", "test", "file_exists", "file_matches", "git_diff", "metric") and put the command, pattern or path in checkNotes, then verify_completion executes it and the result is real evidence. Leave checkType off (or "manual") only for criteria that genuinely need a human eye \u2014 a manual check records your assertion, it does not test anything.';
