trello

The Trello skill enables users to manage their Trello workspace directly from the command line using the Trello REST API. By integrating with environment variables for authentication, this skill provides a streamlined approach to interact with boards, lists, and cards without needing to navigate the Trello web interface. It solves the problem of manual management of Trello resources, allowing users to automate repetitive tasks, query board data quickly, and maintain organization efficiently.

Key features of this skill include listing all boards for a user, enumerating lists within a board, and retrieving cards from specific lists. Users can also create new cards, move them between lists, add comments, and archive cards. All actions leverage simple curl commands combined with jq for JSON parsing, providing both flexibility and transparency in how API requests are executed. The skill requires minimal setup, only needing the Trello API key and token, and depends on jq for processing JSON responses.

This skill is ideal for project managers, developers, and teams who use Trello as a central task management tool and wish to automate workflows or integrate Trello data into scripts and other systems. Use cases include generating quick reports of board status, bulk card creation or updates, and automating task transitions. It is particularly useful for users comfortable with command-line operations who seek to optimize their Trello management tasks without relying solely on the web interface.
