NAME

App::karr::Cmd::Show - Show full details of a task

VERSION

version 0.600

SYNOPSIS

karr show 12              # a specific task
karr show                 # the most recently updated task
karr show --last 5        # the 5 most recently updated tasks
karr show --me            # the last task my identity acted on
karr show --agent fox-owl # the last task claimed by that agent
karr show 12 --json
karr show --last 5 --compact  # one line per card

DESCRIPTION

Shows the full details of a task, including optional metadata such as tags, due date, estimate, claim state, and the Markdown body. This is the most complete human-readable view of an individual card.

With no ID, shows the most recently updated task. --last N widens that to the N most recently updated. --me instead resolves the task(s) the current identity most recently acted on (via the activity log). --agent NAME shows the task(s) most recently claimed by that agent name. ID always wins over the selector options.

--compact replaces that full view with one line per card -- the very line karr list --compact prints, from "compact_line" in App::karr::Task. It is the rendering for confirming what a selector selected without reading a screenful per card, and it is what show --compact was silently failing to do while --compact was declared for every command in App::karr::Role::Output (#254). --json is unaffected by it: the payload is the whole card either way.
