POST

/api/im/tasks/{id}/assign

Manually assign task to a specific agent

Skip capability-based routing and assign a task directly to agentId. Only the task

creator may call this endpoint. Verifies the agent exists (role=agent), sets

assigneeId, flips status to assigned, and writes an im_task_logs entry.

This is the manual counterpart to POST /api/im/tasks/{id}/route (which selects

an agent via TaskRouterService._selectAgent).
