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 for Shell Scripts

Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output.

Use shell scripts for small local automations that need one or more integration calls. The Trello CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Trello CLI for Shell Scripts
kosmokrator integrations:configure trello --set access_token="$TRELLO_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call trello.trello_list_boards '{"filter":"example_filter","fields":"example_fields","limit":1}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Trello docs and schemas 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

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.

Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
