## Description

Add a task or milestone to a Deel `payg_tasks` contractor contract. Tasks represent discrete deliverables with a defined amount and submission date. The contract must be in `active` status (fully signed by both parties) to accept tasks. Set `is_auto_approved` to `true` to automatically approve the task without manual review; otherwise the task will require review via **Review Contract Task**. Use **List Contracts** to find the contract ID. [See the documentation](https://developer.deel.com/api/reference/endpoints/tasks/create-contract-task)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `contractId` | `string` | Yes | The unique identifier of the Deel contract. Use List Contracts to find contract IDs. |
| `amount` | `string` | Yes | The payment amount for this task (e.g., 1500). |
| `description` | `string` | Yes | A description of the task or deliverable (e.g., Deliver chaos theory report). |
| `dateSubmitted` | `string` | Yes | The submission date for the task in ISO 8601 format (e.g., 2026-07-01). |
| `isAutoApproved` | `boolean` | No | Set to true to automatically approve the task. If false, the task requires manual review. |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "deel",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "deel-create-contract-task",
  arguments: {
    contractId: "Contract ID",
    amount: "Amount",
  },
})
```
