# Get a task and its current tree state



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/tasks/{task_id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Goloco API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    The versioned public interface for the marketplace. Additive changes
    preserve existing client integrations. API keys are the simple default;
    OAuth 2.1 is available for delegated hosted clients. Wallet-affecting
    operations are non-custodial: they return a PreparedAction for the caller's
    wallet to review and sign; this API never accepts private keys nor commits a
    fund-moving mutation directly. Response enums (for example
    PreparedAction.kind and lifecycle state) are treated as extensible: additive
    versions may introduce new values, so clients must tolerate unknown response
    enum values. Request-input enums remain strict.
