| **Address**   | `https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/index/tasks/{uid}` |
| **Method**    | `GET`                                       |
| **Operation** | `get_index_tasks_by_uid`                    |
| **Auth**      | `Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY`      |

Checks a write task, which has already finished.

Always reports `succeeded`. Writes here are applied to SQLite before their
EnqueuedTask is returned, so a client polling waitForTask resolves on its
first call rather than waiting for a queue that was never there. The three
timestamps are the same instant for the same reason.

It requires a validated principal but reads no tenant data: the task id it
echoes was minted by this process and names nothing about any org.

## Request

1 field.

| Field | In   | Type    | Required | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ------- | -------- | ----------- |
| `uid` | path | integer | yes      |             |

## Response

| Status    | Body            | Meaning |
| --------- | --------------- | ------- |
| `200`     | index.indexTask | ok      |
| `default` | problem-details | refused |

`200` body — 6 fields.

| Field        | In   | Type            | Always | Description                                                                                                     |
| ------------ | ---- | --------------- | ------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `enqueuedAt` | body | string          | —      | EnqueuedAt, StartedAt and FinishedAt are the same instant: the write was applied before its task id was minted. |
| `finishedAt` | body | string          | —      | FinishedAt is when the write completed.                                                                         |
| `startedAt`  | body | string          | —      | StartedAt is when the write began.                                                                              |
| `status`     | body | string          | —      | Status is always `succeeded`.                                                                                   |
| `type`       | body | string          | —      | Type names the kind of write, for a client that inspects it.                                                    |
| `uid`        | body | integer (int64) | —      | UID echoes the task id that was asked about.                                                                    |

Failure carries the platform error shape — see [Errors](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/errors).

## Examples

**CLI**

```bash
hanzo index tasks get 1
```

**SDK**

**.ts**

```ts
import { Configuration, IndexApi } from 'hanzoai';

const api = new IndexApi(new Configuration({ accessToken: process.env.HANZO_API_KEY }));
const { data } = await api.getIndexTasksByUid({ uid: 'uid' });
```

**.py**

```python
from hanzoai.cloud import ApiClient, Configuration
from hanzoai.cloud.api import IndexApi

client = ApiClient(Configuration(access_token=os.environ["HANZO_API_KEY"]))
result = IndexApi(client).get_index_tasks_by_uid(uid='uid')
```

**.go**

```go
cfg := hanzoai.NewConfiguration()
cfg.AddDefaultHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+os.Getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"))
client := hanzoai.NewAPIClient(cfg)

resp, _, err := client.IndexAPI.GetIndexTasksByUid(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

**.rs**

```rust
use hanzo_client::apis::{configuration::Configuration, index_api};

let mut cfg = Configuration::new();
cfg.bearer_access_token = std::env::var("HANZO_API_KEY").ok();

let result = index_api::get_index_tasks_by_uid(&cfg, Default::default()).await?;
```

**.java**

```java
import ai.hanzo.cloud.ApiClient;
import ai.hanzo.cloud.api.IndexApi;

ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
client.setBearerToken(System.getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"));

var result = new IndexApi(client).getIndexTasksByUid();
```

**HTTP**

```bash
curl https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/index/tasks/1 \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY"
```

**MCP**

MCP reaches **index** through the `index` tool, which names its 14 operations with its own verbs — this one among them, under a name only MCP declares. `describe` explains any of them:

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "jsonrpc": "2.0",
       "id": 1,
       "method": "tools/call",
       "params": {
         "name": "describe",
         "arguments": {
           "op": "get_index_health"
         }
       }
     }'
```
