Add word origin context to ClickUp discussions

See where important terms come from before they shape a decision.

Trigger

Task Comment Posted

Triggers when a comment is added to a task. `changes[]` carries one `CommentChange` entry whose `comment` field is the typed `ClickupComment` object (id, text, user, reactions, etc.).

Action
