## About Motion with LuumenAI

Connect Motion and Luumen can read your workspaces, projects, tasks, statuses, and schedules without stopping to ask. When the work needs a change — a new task on the migration project, a recurring check-in, a comment for the on-call handover — Luumen shows the plan first and waits for your approval before it writes.

## Example tools

Read-only (12 in total):

- `MOTION_GET_MY_USER` — Get information on the owner of the API key.
- `MOTION_GET_PROJECT` — Retrieve a single project by its ID.
- `MOTION_GET_TASK` — Retrieve a task by its ID from Motion.
- `MOTION_LIST_COMMENTS` — Get all comments on a specific task.
- `MOTION_LIST_CUSTOM_FIELDS` — Retrieve all custom fields for a given Motion workspace.
- `MOTION_LIST_PROJECTS` — Get all projects for a workspace.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Motion?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Motion on its own?

Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes is shown as a plan and requires approval by default, including the 6 actions classified as destructive. Administrators configure that per tool.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Motion — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
