Adding html_text parameter to asana_create_task_story MCP tool for rich text comments

Hi @FloopCZE!

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback—I completely agree with you. If LLMs could leverage the html_text field, that would indeed unlock some very powerful use cases.

With the release of v2, we intentionally reduced the overall number of available tools (nearly by half). As part of that change, the asana_create_task_story tool is no longer included. We shared the reasoning behind this in the v2 changelog, but in short: we chose to prioritize quality over quantity. The goal is to ensure that the tools we do expose are well-scoped, reliable, and supported by strong, contextual instructions so agents can use them effectively.

That said, this is a temporary limitation. We’re actively evaluating which tools should be reintroduced or added next, based on real-world needs and feedback like yours. While this means LLMs may feel a bit more constrained right now, the intention is for them to perform actions more accurately and with better context.

I agree that adding a create_task_story tool could unblock many workflows and improve how agents interact with Asana. I’ll pass your feedback along to our R&D team so they can evaluate the request and consider next steps.

Thanks again for sharing your perspective! I’ll follow up if we have any questions on our end.

Best,
Dominik
