Delimit Ledger Update
delimit_ledger_updateUpdate an existing ledger item's fields—status, priority, assignee, labels, or title—by passing only the values to change. Use it to modify item details without creating a new item or marking it done.
Instructions
Update any field on an existing ledger item.
When to use: to change state on a ledger item (status, priority, assignee, links, labels). Pass only the fields you want to change. When NOT to use: to create a new item (use delimit_ledger_add) or to mark one done (delimit_ledger_done is the convenience wrapper).
Sibling contrast: delimit_ledger_add creates; delimit_ledger_done closes; this is the general-purpose updater.
Side effects: writes to the ledger via ai.ledger_manager. Coerces string list inputs (labels) through _coerce_list_arg.
