Update an existing task by slug.

This command requires a task slug and the fields to update (e.g., /task-update documentation-607495 status to in_queue).

Auth token is loaded from the WEBAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN variable — first from .env in the current working directory, then from ~/.claude/.env as a global fallback.

Step 0: Load Token

Load the auth token by reading .env in the current working directory and extracting the WEBAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN value. If the variable is missing or empty, try ~/.claude/.env as a fallback. If still missing in both locations, tell the user to set it in either .env (project-level) or ~/.claude/.env (global) and stop.

Step 1: Parse Input

Extract from the command argument:

Slug: the task slug (first argument or identifiable slug pattern like xxx-123456)
Updates: what to change — parse natural language into fields:
