# Reply to an existing Plan feedback thread

> Uses the current plan version and sha256. Returns the new comment ID and updated feedback. Replying does not reopen a resolved thread, approve the plan or start work. After an uncertain response, read feedback before retrying; replies have no client idempotency key.

> [tab] CLI Tool
>
> ```bash
> coderabbit api request "/code/tasks/$TASK_ID/plan/comments/threads/$THREAD_ID/replies" --input request.json
> ```
>
> To install and sign in to the CLI, see [Call from the CLI](https://docs.coderabbit.ai/api/cli.md).

> [tab] MCP Server
>
> An agent connected to the [CodeRabbit MCP server](https://docs.coderabbit.ai/api/mcp.md) runs this operation as the `reply_code_task_plan_comment_thread` tool. The connection selects the organization, so the arguments have no `org_id` or `org_name`.
