SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Managing Trello boards manually through the web UI is slow when you need to script card creation, move cards between lists, or pull board data into other workflows. This Skill provides ready-to-use curl commands for the Trello REST API so you can automate board operations directly from the command line. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Board and List Discovery: List all your boards, the lists within a board, and the cards within a list using simple GET requests. - Card Lifecycle Management: Create cards, move them between lists, add comments, and archive them via POST and PUT requests. - Use Case: Imagine you want to automate a weekly report of open tasks. Use this Skill to fetch all cards from a board, filter them with jq, and feed the results into your reporting pipeline. ## Quick Start Set the TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN environment variables, then ask the assistant to list all your Trello boards and their IDs.

Frequently Asked Questions about trello

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Trello card using the REST API?

Send a POST request to https://api.trello.com/1/cards with your API key, token, the target list ID (idList), and card fields like name and desc. The Skill provides the exact curl command for this operation.

How do I get my Trello API key and token?

Visit https://trello.com/app-key to get your API key, then click the Token link on that page to generate a token. Set both as the TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN environment variables before running any commands.

How do I move a Trello card to another list via API?

Send a PUT request to https://api.trello.com/1/cards/{cardId} with the idList parameter set to the destination list ID, along with your key and token. You can find list IDs by querying the board's lists endpoint first.

What are the Trello API rate limits?

Trello allows 300 requests per 10 seconds per API key and 100 requests per 10 seconds per token. The /1/members endpoints are further limited to 100 requests per 900 seconds, so batch operations should be paced accordingly.

Why do my Trello API requests return authentication errors?

Authentication errors usually mean the TRELLO_API_KEY or TRELLO_TOKEN environment variables are unset, expired, or incorrect. Verify both values are exported in your shell and that the token was generated from the same account as the API key.
