Trello Board Management Assistant

Problem

Trello often holds task breakdowns, status changes, and discussion trails. Opening the web UI to copy Board/List/Card IDs and manually move cards interrupts work. This skill turns common Trello operations into command-like calls from Clawdbot, reducing context switching while keeping board data accessible.

How It Works

The skill uses curl against the Trello REST API. Setup requires an API key and token, configured as environment variables for authentication. Core capabilities include:

• List boards: inspect accessible boards
• List lists: view lists inside a board
• List cards: view cards inside a list
• Create a card: add tasks or items to a list
• Move a card: change status by moving it between lists
• Add a comment: leave discussion notes on a card
• Archive a card: clean up completed or invalid items

Board/List/Card IDs can be taken from the Trello URL or returned by list commands. Because the API key and token grant broad account access, they should only be stored in controlled environment variables. Also watch Trello rate limits: roughly 300 requests per 10 seconds per API key, 100 per 10 seconds per token, and about 100 requests per 900 seconds for /1/members endpoints.
