Planka CLI

This skill provides a CLI wrapper around the plankapy library to interact with a Planka instance.

Setup

  1. Install via Homebrew tap:

    brew tap voydz/homebrew-tap
    brew install planka-cli
    

    Source/pipx installs require Python 3.11+ to use plankapy v2.

  2. Configuration: Use the login command to store credentials:

    planka-cli login --url https://planka.example --username alice --password secret
    # or: python3 scripts/planka_cli.py login --url https://planka.example --username alice --password secret
    

Usage

Run the CLI with the installed planka-cli binary:

# Show help
planka-cli

# Check connection
planka-cli status

# Login to planka instance
planka-cli login --url https://planka.example --username alice --password secret

# Remove stored credentials
planka-cli logout

# List Projects
planka-cli projects list

# List Boards (optionally by project ID)
planka-cli boards list [PROJECT_ID]

# List Lists in a Board
planka-cli lists list <BOARD_ID>

# List Cards in a List
planka-cli cards list <LIST_ID>

# Show a Card (includes attachments with URLs and comment text)
planka-cli cards show <CARD_ID>

# Create a Card
planka-cli cards create <LIST_ID> "Card title"

# Update a Card
planka-cli cards update <CARD_ID> --name "New title"
planka-cli cards update <CARD_ID> --list-id <LIST_ID>
planka-cli cards update <CARD_ID> --list-id <LIST_ID> --position top

# Delete a Card
planka-cli cards delete <CARD_ID>

planka-cli cards list 1619901252164912136

Show card details for card ID 1619901252164912137:

planka-cli cards create 1619901252164912136 "Ship CLI"

Move a card to another list:

planka-cli cards update 1619901252164912137 --list-id 1619901252164912136
