| MCP tool | Not an MCP tool |
| Writes | yes, send an Idempotency-Key |

## When to use it

Never call it. The customer confirms or flags a problem on the hosted page.

## What to tell the owner

Your customer opens the link and confirms the work, or tells you what's wrong.

## Input

| Field | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|
| `t` | string | yes |
| `outcome` | string (one of confirmed, flagged) | yes |
| `note` | string | no |

## Example

```http
POST https://doingwork.work/v1/jobs/confirm
content-type: application/json
Idempotency-Key: 3f1c...

{
  "t": "...",
  "outcome": "confirmed"
}
```

JSON. The response shape isn't published yet; read the fields you need and ignore the rest. Errors are `{code, message, status}`.

## Errors

| Code | Status | What to do |
