Adds a column to a board, at the end. Type controls workflow behaviour: planning, progressing, testing or finish (tasks in finish count as done). Requires owner or admin role.
Safety: Write
Tool names, field names, and schema descriptions remain in canonical MCP English so copied calls match the server exactly.
