 - Adjusts the MCP server invokation in the mcp.json we ship with `task-master init`. Fully functional now.
 
+- Rename MCP tools to better align with API conventions and natural language in client chat:
+  - Rename `list-tasks` to `get-tasks` for more intuitive client requests like "get my tasks"
+  - Rename `show-task` to `get-task` for consistency with GET-based API naming conventions
+
 - Implement robust project root detection with a hierarchical precedence system:
   - Environment variable override (TASK_MASTER_PROJECT_ROOT)
   - Explicitly provided project root (--project-root parameter)
