What it does
Once installed, the agent can look up your Trello boards, lists and cards, create new cards, move cards between lists, add comments, and archive cards. It does this by running curl commands against the official Trello REST API using your personal API key and token, and it uses jq to format the results. Trello is a popular web app for organising tasks on visual boards.
Great for
- People who already use Trello and want to manage tasks by asking their agent in plain language
- Developers who want an agent to triage, file, or update Trello cards as part of a workflow
- Teams automating simple board housekeeping such as moving finished cards to a Done list
Skip it if
- Anyone uncomfortable giving an AI agent full read and write access to their Trello account, since the key and token grant full account access
- Situations needing Trello features beyond these commands, such as attachments, labels, or webhooks, which this skill does not document
- Users who do not have a Trello account, since the skill cannot work without one
Try asking
- “List all my Trello boards and their IDs”
- “Create a card called 'Fix login bug' in the Backlog list on my Work board”
- “Move card 1234 to the Done list and add a comment saying it shipped”
- “Show me all cards in the In Progress list with their descriptions”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Store TRELLO_API_KEY and TRELLO_TOKEN in your shell profile rather than pasting them into chats, and revoke the token from Trello if you stop using the skill
- Ask the agent to list boards and lists first so it can pick the correct IDs before creating or moving cards
- Review any write action (create, move, archive) before confirming, since archiving and moving are changes to live team boards
