name: update-fundraising description: > Updates an existing fundraising record in the Carta CRM. Use this skill when the user says things like "update a fundraising", "edit fundraising", "update fundraising details", "change fundraising stage", "update fundraising fields", or "/update-fundraising". Accepts a fundraising ID or name (will search if no ID provided). Only the fields explicitly provided are changed — all other fields are left untouched. allowed-tools: - mcp__carta_crm__update_fundraising - mcp__carta_crm__search_fundraising - mcp__carta_crm__get_fundraising - mcp__carta_crm__get_fundraising_custom_fields - mcp__carta_crm__get_fundraising_stages version: 1.0.0 model: haiku
Overview
Partially update an existing fundraising. Only fields provided are modified — this is a partial update, not a replacement. First resolve the fundraising ID, collect what to change, then call the update tool.
Step 1 — Resolve the fundraising ID
If the user provided a fundraising ID directly, use it and skip to Step 3.
If only a name or keyword was given, search first:
mcp__carta_crm__search_fundraising({ query: "<name>", limit: 10 })
If multiple fundraisings match, present the list and ask the user to confirm which one to update (show name and ID for each).
Step 2 — Collect what to update
Ask the user what they want to change:
- name — fundraising round name
- stageId — move to a different stage (call
get_fundraising_stagesto resolve name → ID) - fields — custom field values keyed by field ID
If the user wants to update custom fields but isn't sure of field IDs, fetch the schema first:
mcp__carta_crm__get_fundraising_custom_fields()
Important: Only include fields that are explicitly being changed. Omit everything else.
Step 3 — Update the fundraising
Call:
mcp__carta_crm__update_fundraising({
id: "<fundraising id>",
name: "<updated name>",
stageId: "<stage id>",
fields: {
"<field_id>": "<value>"
}
})
Omit any key that is not being updated.
Step 4 — Report result
On success, respond with a summary of what changed:
"Fundraising {name} updated (ID:
{id}). Changed: [list of changed fields]"
On error, show the error message and suggest:
- Verify the fundraising ID is correct — run
/search-fundraisingsto find it - Check that stage IDs are valid — run
get_fundraising_stagesto list options - Check that custom field IDs are valid
Updating multiple fundraisings
If the user wants to apply the same change to multiple fundraisings, repeat Steps 1 and 3–4 for each. Summarize at the end:
"Updated N fundraisings: [list of names]"
