# corrections.record

Save a correction when the worker edits, rejects, or says you got something wrong in a draft you made (a quote line, a recap, a task, a reply). Keep the before, the after and the worker's reason in their words. You read these before your next draft for the shop.

|  |  |
|---|---|
| Who | Agents can call this |
| REST | `POST /v1/corrections` |
| MCP tool | `corrections_record` |
| Writes | yes, send an Idempotency-Key |
| Area | [Shop](https://doingwork.work/docs/reference/#shop) |

## When to use it

Turn what the worker said and what you saw into quote lines without ever setting a price on your own. Call quotes.draftFromVisit with lines in the worker's words.

## What to tell the owner

Say what you did in plain words and what happens next.

## Input

| Field | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|
| `shop_id` | string (uuid) | yes |
| `kind` | string (one of recap, quote_line, quote, task, reply, other) | yes |
| `action` | string (one of edited, rejected, wrong) | yes |
| `subject_id` | string (uuid) | no |
| `before` | string | no |
| `after` | string | no |
| `reason` | string | no |
