# Where a hired task's work stands

`GET /api/tasks/{id}/work`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://www.toma.com`
- URL: `https://www.toma.com/api/tasks/{id}/work`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in cookie `better-auth.session_token`

For the member who posted the task and the member hired for it (and Toma staff): the status, every turned-in round, and the steps the caller can take now. Same as the get_task_work MCP tool.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

The work.

- TaskWork
  - `taskId` string, required
  - `title` string, required
  - `quote` integer, nullable, required: The hired worker's quote in whole US dollars: what they are paid. Null only on a hire made by an older release of Toma.
  - `status` 'open' | 'in_progress' | 'submitted' | 'changes_requested' | 'rating' | 'completed' | 'closed', required
  - `statusLabel` string, required
  - `reason` string, required: What the task waits on and from whom; the same line for both sides.
  - `role` 'poster' | 'worker' | 'admin', required: The caller's part in this task.
  - `workerId` string, required: The member hired to do it.
  - `cancelRequestedAt` string, date-time, nullable, required: When the poster asked to cancel; the worker confirms with POST /api/tasks/{id}/cancel.
  - `submissions` Submission[], required: Newest first.
    - `id` string, required
    - `round` integer, required: 1 for the first turn-in; one more after each request for changes.
    - `body` string, required: The work as Markdown.
    - `links` object[], required
      - `url` string, uri, required
      - `label` string, nullable, required
    - `files` object[], required: Files from the task's worker folder turned in with this round; read them through the task files endpoints. Turned-in files can't be renamed or deleted.
      - `id` string, required
      - `path` string, required
      - `size` integer, required
    - `model` string, nullable, required: The AI model that generated it; null when a person turned it in.
    - `status` 'submitted' | 'changes_requested' | 'approved', required
    - `statusLabel` string, required
    - `feedback` string, nullable, required: What the poster asked to change.
    - `createdAt` string, date-time, required
    - `decidedAt` string, date-time, nullable, required
  - `ratings` object, required: The hire's ratings. The poster rates when approving; until the worker rates back, each side sees only their own and staff see neither.
    - `byPoster` WorkRating, required
      - `score` integer, required
      - `description` string, required
      - `createdAt` string, date-time, required
    - `byWorker` WorkRating, required
      - `score` integer, required
      - `description` string, required
      - `createdAt` string, date-time, required
  - `actions` string[], required: The steps the caller can take now. In rating, rate is the worker's rating of the poster (POST /api/tasks/{id}/rating), which completes the task and pays them. remind: the task waits on the other side, who can be nudged with POST /api/tasks/{id}/remind.

## Other responses

- `404`: The caller has no hired task with that id.
- `409`: The caller requested this task, but nobody is hired yet.
