+"""Hierarchy management tools for Epic/Issue/Task structure (v2.0.0).
+
+This module implements tools for managing the three-level ticket hierarchy:
+- Epic: Strategic level containers
+- Issue: Standard work items
+- Task: Sub-work items
+
+Version 2.0.0 changes:
+- Removed all deprecated functions (epic_create, epic_get, epic_list, etc.)
+- Single `hierarchy()` function provides all hierarchy operations
+- All deprecated function logic has been inlined into the unified interface
