Connect Trello so Dex reads your boards and manages cards. An agent skill from davekilleen/Dex.
- Works in 8 steps: Check if Already Connected → Explain What We're Setting Up → Get API Credentials → …

- Calls python3; reaches trello.com; needs TRELLO_TOKEN and TRELLO_API_KEY
What it does
Trello Setup is an agent skill from davekilleen/Dex. Connect Trello so Dex reads your boards and manages cards. Use when the user says 'I use Trello', 'my Trello board', or pastes a trello.com link. Not for Todoist (todoist-setup) or Things (things-setup).
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It works with Todoist. The repository describes itself as: Your AI Chief of Staff — a personal operating system starter kit that adapts to your role. No coding required.
When your agent uses it
- The user says I use Trello
- My Trello board
- Pastes a trello.com link
Example prompts
- “I use Trello”
- “my Trello board”
- “/trello-setup”
Requirements
- Python 3
- A credential in TRELLO_API_KEY
- A credential in TRELLO_TOKEN
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Check if Already Connected
- Explain What We're Setting Up
- Get API Credentials
- Store Local Credentials
- Test the Connection
- Configure Board Mapping
- Save Configuration
- Confirm
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ab5d6ad. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
trello.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
TRELLO_TOKENTRELLO_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Trello Setup loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 744 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 744 words (~2,223 tokens).
