Read the result before continuing

The task with its description and comments.

A call returns content[0].text with the JSON result and structuredContent.result with the same value. A refused call returns isError: true and the error code in content[0].text.

A request being accepted is not proof of an external action completing. Keep correlation IDs and mutation idempotency keys unchanged across safe retries.
