clickup comment reply

Reply to a comment thread

Synopsis

Reply to an existing comment on a ClickUp task, creating a threaded reply.

Use ‘clickup comment list —json’ to find comment IDs.

The body is parsed as markdown — headers (##), bold (x), italic (x), inline code, fenced code blocks, ordered/bullet lists, blockquotes, and links all render as rich formatting.

Use @username in the body to @mention workspace members. Mentions resolve case-insensitively against full username, first-name token, or email local-part when unambiguous.
