You do not have or update the whole agenda view.

I use the following code to update the clocking highlights in agenda
even when I clock-in/out outside the agenda buffer:

https://github.com/yantar92/emacs-config/blob/master/config.org#update-highlight-from-currently-clocked-task-in-agenda-even-if-the-task-was-clocked-inout-from-outside

The same can be done for todo state changes using
org-agenda-change-all-lines

Best,
Ihor
