Trello for AI agents
Trello is a kanban-style board for organizing tasks into lists and cards, used by teams that plan work visually rather than in a spreadsheet. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Trello.
Add a card to a list
Create a new card on a board's list to track a task or idea.
Add a comment to a card
Post an update or note as a comment on an existing card.
Confirm before archiving all cards
Check with the user before archiving every card in a list, since that's a bulk change across many tasks.
330 Trello actions, graded by risk.
Every Trello action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Trello in three steps.
- 01Your users connect TrelloThey sign in to Trello on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create new session” can wait for the user, and “delete board by id” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Trello through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('trello', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_session destructive: 'deny', // delete_board }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Trello connects.
Users sign in to Trello on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Trello OAuth app, or bring your own so the Trello consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Trello connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- OAuth 1.0a
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Trello from any agent.
Trello and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Trello with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Trello to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Trello actions you allow.
How do users connect Trello?
Users sign in to Trello on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Trello OAuth app, or bring your own so the Trello consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Trello actions can my agent take?
330 in total: 150 read, 149 write and 31 destructive, such as “create new session”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Trello?
Yes. Actions like “delete board by id” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Trello too?
Yes. The same Trello connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Trello into your agent.
Your users connect Trello once, under your brand. Your agent gets 330 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
