SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires asana, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Converts ephemeral customer conversations and manual notes into tracked, assignable Asana action items so SEs stop losing context across tools and tabs. It centralizes SE action tracking, project setup, RAID logs, and task lifecycle operations into a reproducible workflow tied to workspace and project GIDs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read operations: List projects, sections, tasks, view task details, list subtasks, and perform workspace searches with pagination and field selection.
  • Write operations with guardrails: Create, update, complete, move tasks, multi-home tasks, and create standard customer projects and RAID logs after explicit user confirmation.
  • Integrations & workflows: Slack-to-Asana quick-capture workflow, Jira cross-linking convention, portfolio and custom field management for customer onboarding and reporting.
  • Use Case: Take a Slack thread with a WB-1234 reference, summarize context, auto-suggest task metadata, confirm with the user, and create a linked Asana task in the correct customer Actions project.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to create an Asana task from a Slack thread URL, confirm the suggested metadata, and approve the creation.
