SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually clicking through Trello to create, move, or comment on cards is slow and repetitive, especially when managing many boards or automating project workflows. ## 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 curl commands. - Card Management: Create cards, move them between lists, add comments, and archive them programmatically. - Use Case: Imagine a daily standup workflow where you need to move all completed cards to a "Done" list and add a summary comment. Use this Skill to script those Trello API calls instead of doing it by hand. ## Quick Start Set the TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN environment variables, then ask the agent to list your Trello boards and create a new card in a specified list.

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 card is created in the specified list immediately.

How do I move a Trello card to another list?

Send a PUT request to /1/cards/{cardId} with your key and token, passing the destination list ID as the idList parameter. The card moves to the new list while keeping its other properties.

What credentials does the Trello API require?

You need an API key from https://trello.com/app-key and a token generated from the Token link on that page. Set them as the TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN environment variables before running any commands.

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 limited to 100 requests per 900 seconds, so batch operations should be paced accordingly.

How do I find Trello board, list, and card IDs?

IDs appear in Trello URLs or can be retrieved via the list commands. Query /1/members/me/boards for board IDs, /1/boards/{boardId}/lists for list IDs, and /1/lists/{listId}/cards for card IDs, filtering with jq.
