## Usage
Use the MCP tool `dev-swarm.request` to send the payload as a JSON string:

```json
{"server_id":"dart","tool_name":"hot_reload","arguments":{}}
```

## Tool Description
Performs a hot reload of the active Flutter application. This is to apply the latest code changes to the running application. Requires "connect_dart_tooling_daemon" to be successfully called first.

## Arguments Schema
The schema below describes the `arguments` object in the request payload.
```json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "clearRuntimeErrors": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "title": "Whether to clear runtime errors before hot reloading.",
      "description": "This is useful to clear out old errors that may no longer be relevant."
    }
  },
  "required": []
}
```

## Background Tasks
If the tool returns a task id, poll the task status via the MCP request tool:

```json
{"server_id":"dart","method":"tasks/status","params":{"task_id":"<task_id>"}}
```
