Can I use Trello as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Trello CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Trello through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Trello tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Trello credentials stored?

Trello credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Trello MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Trello CLI Setup

Trello can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure trello`.

# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure trello --set access_token="$TRELLO_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor trello --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: Bearer token bearer_token. Configure credentials once, then use the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua code mode, and the MCP gateway.

Key	Env var	Type	Required	Label
`access_token`	`TRELLO_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Secret `secret`	yes	Access Token
`url`	`TRELLO_URL`	URL `url`	no	API Base URL

Call Trello Headlessly

Use the generic call form when another coding CLI or script needs a stable universal interface.

kosmo integrations:call trello.trello_list_boards '{
  "filter": "example_filter",
  "fields": "example_fields",
  "limit": 1
}' --json

Use the provider shortcut form for shorter human-facing commands.

kosmo integrations:trello trello_list_boards '{
  "filter": "example_filter",
  "fields": "example_fields",
  "limit": 1
}' --json

Agent Discovery Commands

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs trello --json
kosmo integrations:docs trello.trello_list_boards --json
kosmo integrations:schema trello.trello_list_boards --json
kosmo integrations:search "Trello" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json
