claim_task

Writes project data

Runner devices only: claim a task routed to your agent before launching a run for it. Returns the attempt and an execution credential for that one run, shown once, which expires with the launch timeout. Retrying with the same idempotency key replays the claim with a fresh credential. A task its owner asked for binds that Task request as the run's cause by itself; wake.message_id may only repeat it. A mention is never a run's cause.
