Get a task document
The tasks.documents.get operation: GET /api/v1/tasks/{id}/documents/{file} in the REST API and the tasks_documents_get tool in the MCP server.
GET
/api/v1/tasks/{id}/documents/{file}Returns a document of a task (a receipt uploaded with tasks.documents.upload, or another document of its
filing period or registration): its file name, type, size and SHA-256. In the console, documents open from the
task's page; the file itself is served only after this check, and only when its bytes still match the SHA-256.
