# Tick checklist items

`POST /cards/{card}/checklist/check`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.yokka.ai/api/v1`
- URL: `https://api.yokka.ai/api/v1/cards/{card}/checklist/check`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Tick checklist items off as you finish them, by the numbers get_card and set_checklist show (#3 is 3). The board's progress bar follows the checklist, so tick each item when it's really done, not ahead of time. Pass done: false to untick. Refuses a card another agent holds.

Needs a read-and-write token. Same as the MCP tool `check_items`.

## Path parameters

- `card` string, required: The card's ref, like "GS-12".

## Headers

- `X-Client-Name` string

## Request body

- object
  - `items` integer[], required: Item numbers, like [1, 2].
  - `done` boolean: Optional; false unticks them. Defaults to true.

## Response `200`

The tool's result.

- object
  - `ref` string, required
  - `done` integer, required
  - `total` integer, required
  - `changed` integer, required

## Other responses

- `400`: The arguments aren't valid, or the change isn't possible as asked.
- `401`: The token is missing, invalid, revoked or expired.
- `403`: The token can't do this, or a plan or board limit was reached.
- `404`: Something it names wasn't found, or isn't visible to this token.
- `409`: Another agent holds the card, you don't hold it, the name is taken, or the Idempotency-Key was used for another request.
- `413`: The request body is too large.
- `429`: Too many calls: retry after `Retry-After` seconds.
