name	trello
description	Manage Trello workspaces, boards, lists, cards, labels, checklists, members and comments directly from Claude. Supports the full task board management workflow via natural language — no need to remember the API. ALWAYS use this skill when the user mentions Trello, or wants to: switch workspaces, create/view/update boards, create/move/archive cards, manage lists, add labels/checklists/comments, search cards. Also use when the user says "task board", "kanban", "sprint board" without explicitly mentioning Trello. Triggers: "tạo board", "thêm card", "chuyển card", "xem danh sách", "archive", "tìm card", "gán label", "checklist", "assign member", "comment on card", "due date", "board nào", "list nào".

Trello Skill

Manage Trello via natural language — Claude translates requests into API calls and returns structured results.

Setup

1. Get API key: https://trello.com/app-key
2. Create Token (click the "Token" link on that same page)
3. Set env vars:

   export TRELLO_API_KEY="your-api-key"
   export TRELLO_TOKEN="your-token"
   

Operating Principles

Auth pattern — every request requires:

?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN

Base URL: https://api.trello.com/1

ID lookup workflow — Trello uses IDs for all operations. Always follow this order:

1. Get workspace ID → GET /members/me/organizations (if filtering by workspace)
2. Get board ID → GET /members/me/boards or GET /organizations/{orgId}/boards
3. Get list ID → GET /boards/{boardId}/lists
4. Get card ID → GET /lists/{listId}/cards or GET /boards/{boardId}/cards

After obtaining IDs, store them in shell variables for reuse within the same session.

Output handling: Pipe through jq for formatting. Use jq '.[] | {name, id}' or custom selectors.

Determining Context — Workspaces & Boards

# View all workspaces
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/members/me/organizations?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&fields=displayName,name,id,url" | jq '.[] | {displayName, name, id}'

# View boards in a workspace
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/organizations/{orgId}/boards?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&filter=open&fields=name,id,url,closed" | jq '.[] | {name, id}'

# View all my boards (not filtered by workspace)
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/members/me/boards?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&fields=name,id,url,closed" | jq '.[] | select(.closed == false) | {name, id}'

# View board details
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&lists=open&members=all&labels=all" | jq '{name, id, lists: [.lists[].name]}'

# Create a new board
curl -s -X POST "https://api.trello.com/1/boards?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "name=Board Name" \
  -d "defaultLists=false"

# Rename a board
curl -s -X PUT "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "name=New Name"

# Archive board (close, not delete)
curl -s -X PUT "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "closed=true"

# Delete board (permanent — warn user first, prefer archive)
curl -s -X DELETE "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}?key=&token="

When the user has multiple workspaces, always list workspaces first to determine the correct context. Full workspace CRUD: see references/workspaces.md

Lists (Columns)

# View all lists in a board
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}/lists?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&filter=open" | jq '.[] | {name, id}'

# Create a new list
curl -s -X POST "https://api.trello.com/1/boards/{boardId}/lists?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "name=List Name" \
  -d "pos=bottom"

# Rename a list
curl -s -X PUT "https://api.trello.com/1/lists/{listId}?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "name=New Name"

# Archive a list
curl -s -X PUT "https://api.trello.com/1/lists/{listId}/closed?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN" \
  -d "value=true"

# View all cards in a list
curl -s "https://api.trello.com/1/lists/{listId}/cards?key=$TRELLO_API_KEY&token=$TRELLO_TOKEN&fields=name,id,desc,due,labels" | jq

Limits & Notes

• Rate limit: 300 requests/10s (per API key); 100 requests/10s (per token)
• Endpoint /1/members: limited to 100 requests/900s — avoid repeated calls
• Delete card: permanent, cannot be undone — confirm with user before deleting
• Delete board: DELETE /boards/{id} — permanent, deletes all lists/cards inside. Prefer archive (closed=true) first, only delete when user explicitly confirms
• Delete workspace: permanent, deletes all boards inside — confirm with user first
• IDs: stable, do not change even when renaming board/list/card
• Date format: ISO 8601 — e.g. 2025-12-31T23:59:59.000Z
• Position: use "top", "bottom", or a float number for precise ordering
