Asana Task Management

Status: Not yet implemented. This skill is designed but the scripts have not been created yet. See README.md in this directory for the planned architecture.

When implemented, this skill will manage Asana tasks via a local SQLite cache with bidirectional sync. The planned scripts live in scripts/:

Script	Purpose
`scripts/tasks.py`	Query / create / update tasks in local cache
`scripts/sync.py`	Bidirectional sync with Asana API
`scripts/projects.py`	List and manage projects

Configuration (planned)

export ASANA_TOKEN="your_personal_access_token"
export ASANA_WORKSPACE_GID="1234567890"

Setup (planned)

# Run once to do initial full sync
python scripts/sync.py full --workspace $ASANA_WORKSPACE_GID

Usage (planned)

# List tasks
python scripts/tasks.py list --workspace $ASANA_WORKSPACE_GID

# Search tasks
python scripts/tasks.py search "meeting notes"

# Create a task
python scripts/tasks.py create --name "Review PR" --due 2026-03-10

# Mark complete
python scripts/tasks.py complete <task_gid>

# Incremental sync (fast)
python scripts/sync.py incremental --workspace $ASANA_WORKSPACE_GID

See README.md for full architecture details, database schema, and migration path to a plugin.
