get_task_status
Status of a long-running tool call that returned a task handle instead of a result (index_vault on a large vault does). Pass the task_id from the handle; while status is working it reports progress, and once completed it carries the tool’s result. Read-only; only the caller that started the task can read it. Domain: admin.
