Updates Boomerang/Orchestrator docs to match current implementation:

  • Remove outdated finishSubTask() reference (delegation now returns via attempt_completion → reopen parent from delegation).
  • Adjust wording from “paused” to “delegated/reopened” to reflect how the UI/history behaves.
  • Clarify that new_task/switch_mode ask for approval by default but may be auto-approved when the relevant Auto-Approve toggles are enabled.

Important

Update Boomerang/Orchestrator documentation to reflect current task delegation and approval processes.

  • Documentation Updates:
    • Remove outdated finishSubTask() reference; now uses attempt_completion for task completion signaling in boomerang-tasks.mdx.
    • Change terminology from "paused" to "delegated/reopened" in boomerang-tasks.mdx to reflect UI behavior.
    • Clarify approval process for new_task and switch_mode tools in new-task.md and switch-mode.md, noting default approval requirement and auto-approve options.

In docs/advanced-usage/available-tools/new-task.md the "What It Does" section still says the parent task is "paused", but elsewhere in this PR you’ve switched terminology to "delegated". Updating that paragraph would keep the page consistent and avoid user confusion.

Fix it with Roo Code or mention @roomote and request a fix.
