Archive a task list

POST /v1/lists/{listId}/archive

Archives a task list.

Archived lists no longer appear in GET /v1/lists or in the web sidebar, but their tasks remain accessible via the task endpoints. The API key’s owner must be a member of the list.

Idempotent — archiving an already-archived list returns success.

Connected web clients in the team receive a realtime tasklists refetch event so the list disappears from their sidebar.
