Fizzy CLI Skill

Manage Fizzy boards, cards, steps, comments, reactions, and pins.

Quick Reference

ID Formats

IMPORTANT: Cards use TWO identifiers:

All card CLI commands use the card NUMBER, not the ID.

Other resources (boards, columns, comments, steps, reactions, users) use their id field.

Response Structure

All responses follow this structure:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": { ... },           // Single object or array
  "summary": "4 boards",     // Human-readable description
  "breadcrumbs": [ ... ],    // Contextual next actions (omitted when empty)
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2026-01-12T21:21:48Z"
  }
}

Summary field formats:

List responses with pagination:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": [ ... ],
  "summary": "10 cards (page 1)",
  "pagination": {
    "has_next": true,
    "next_url": "https://..."
  },
  "meta": { ... }
}

Breadcrumbs (contextual next actions):

Responses include a breadcrumbs array suggesting what you can do next. Each breadcrumb has:

• action: Short action name (e.g., "comment", "close", "assign")
• cmd: Ready-to-run command with actual values interpolated
• description: Human-readable description

fizzy card show 42 | jq '.breadcrumbs'

[
  {"action": "comment", "cmd": "fizzy comment create --card 42 --body \"text\"", "description": "Add comment"},
  {"action": "triage", "cmd": "fizzy card column 42 --column <column_id>", "description": "Move to column"},
  {"action": "close", "cmd": "fizzy card close 42", "description": "Close card"},
  {"action": "assign", "cmd": "fizzy card assign 42 --user <user_id>", "description": "Assign user"}
]

Use breadcrumbs to discover available actions without memorizing the full CLI. Values like card numbers and board IDs are pre-filled; placeholders like <column_id> need to be replaced.

Error responses:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "NOT_FOUND",
    "message": "Not Found",
    "status": 404
  },
  "meta": { ... }
}

Create/update responses include location:

{
  "success": true,
  "data": { ... },
  "location": "/6102600/cards/579.json",
  "meta": { ... }
}

Resource Schemas

Complete field reference for all resources. Use these exact field paths in jq queries.

Card Schema

IMPORTANT: card list and card show return different fields. steps only in card show.

Board Schema

User Schema

Comment Schema

Step Schema

Column Schema

Tag Schema

Reaction Schema

Identity Schema (from identity show)

Key Schema Differences

Global Flags

All commands support:

Pagination

List commands use --page for pagination. There is NO --limit flag.

# Get first page (default)
fizzy card list --page 1

# Get specific number of results using jq
fizzy card list --page 1 | jq '.data[:5]'

# Fetch ALL pages at once
fizzy card list --all

IMPORTANT: The --all flag controls pagination only - it fetches all pages of results for your current filter. It does NOT change which cards are included. By default, card list returns only open cards. See Card Statuses for how to fetch closed or postponed cards.

Commands supporting --all and --page:

• board list
• card list
• search
• comment list
• tag list
• user list
• notification list

Card Statuses

Cards exist in different states. By default, fizzy card list returns open cards only (cards in triage or columns). To fetch cards in other states, use the --indexed-by or --column flags:

You can also use pseudo-columns:

fizzy card list --column done --all     # Same as --indexed-by closed
fizzy card list --column not-now --all  # Same as --indexed-by not_now
fizzy card list --column maybe --all    # Cards in triage (no column assigned)

Fetching all cards on a board:

To get all cards regardless of status (for example, to build a complete board view), make separate queries:

# Open cards (triage + columns)
fizzy card list --board BOARD_ID --all

# Closed/Done cards
fizzy card list --board BOARD_ID --indexed-by closed --all

# Optionally, Not Now cards
fizzy card list --board BOARD_ID --indexed-by not_now --all

Common jq Patterns

Reducing Output

# Card summary (most useful)
fizzy card list | jq '[.data[] | {number, title, status, board: .board.name}]'

# First N items
fizzy card list | jq '.data[:5]'

# Just IDs
fizzy board list | jq '[.data[].id]'

# Specific fields from single item
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, status, golden}'

# Card with description length (description is a string, not object)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, desc_length: (.description | length)}'

Filtering

# Cards with a specific status
fizzy card list --all | jq '[.data[] | select(.status == "published")]'

# Golden cards only
fizzy card list --indexed-by golden | jq '[.data[] | {number, title}]'

# Cards with non-empty descriptions
fizzy card list | jq '[.data[] | select(.description | length > 0) | {number, title}]'

# Cards with steps (must use card show, steps not in list)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data.steps'

Extracting Nested Data

# Comment text only (body.plain_text for comments)
fizzy comment list --card 579 | jq '[.data[].body.plain_text]'

# Card description (just .description for cards - it's a string)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data.description'

# Step completion status
fizzy card show 579 | jq '[.data.steps[] | {content, completed}]'

Activity Analysis

# Cards with steps count (requires card show for each)
fizzy card show 579 | jq '.data | {number, title, steps_count: (.steps | length)}'

# Comments count for a card
fizzy comment list --card 579 | jq '.data | length'

Command Reference

Identity

fizzy identity show                    # Show your identity and accessible accounts

Search

Quick text search across cards. Multiple words are treated as separate terms (AND).

fizzy search QUERY [flags]
  --board ID                           # Filter by board
  --assignee ID                        # Filter by assignee user ID
  --tag ID                             # Filter by tag ID
  --indexed-by LANE                    # Filter: all, closed, not_now, golden
  --sort ORDER                         # Sort: newest, oldest, or latest (default)
  --page N                             # Page number
  --all                                # Fetch all pages

Examples:

fizzy search "bug"                     # Search for "bug"
fizzy search "login error"             # Search for cards containing both "login" AND "error"
fizzy search "bug" --board BOARD_ID    # Search within a specific board
fizzy search "bug" --indexed-by closed # Include closed cards
fizzy search "feature" --sort newest   # Sort by newest first

Boards

fizzy board list [--page N] [--all]
fizzy board show BOARD_ID
fizzy board create --name "Name" [--all_access true/false] [--auto_postpone_period N]
fizzy board update BOARD_ID [--name "Name"] [--all_access true/false] [--auto_postpone_period N]
fizzy board delete BOARD_ID

Board Migration

Migrate boards between accounts (e.g., from personal to team account).

fizzy migrate board BOARD_ID --from SOURCE_SLUG --to TARGET_SLUG [flags]
  --include-images                       # Migrate card header images and inline attachments
  --include-comments                     # Migrate card comments
  --include-steps                        # Migrate card steps (to-do items)
  --dry-run                              # Preview migration without making changes

What gets migrated:

• Board with same name
• All columns (preserving order and colors)
• All cards with titles, descriptions, timestamps, and tags
• Card states (closed, golden, column placement)
• Optional: header images, inline attachments, comments, and steps

What cannot be migrated:

• Card creators (become the migrating user)
• Card numbers (new sequential numbers in target)
• Comment authors (become the migrating user)
• User assignments (team must reassign manually)

Requirements: You must have API access to both source and target accounts. Verify with fizzy identity show.

# Preview migration first
fizzy migrate board BOARD_ID --from personal --to team-account --dry-run

# Basic migration
fizzy migrate board BOARD_ID --from personal --to team-account

# Full migration with all content
fizzy migrate board BOARD_ID --from personal --to team-account \
  --include-images --include-comments --include-steps

Example Workflows

Create Card with Steps

# Create the card
CARD=$(fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "New Feature" \
  --description "<p>Feature description</p>" | jq -r '.data.number')

# Add steps
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Design the feature"
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Implement backend"
fizzy step create --card $CARD --content "Write tests"

Create Card with Inline Image

# Upload image
SGID=$(fizzy upload file screenshot.png | jq -r '.data.attachable_sgid')

# Create description file with embedded image
cat > desc.html << EOF
<p>See the screenshot below:</p>
<action-text-attachment sgid="$SGID"></action-text-attachment>
EOF

# Create card
fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "Bug Report" --description_file desc.html

Create Card with Background Image (only when explicitly requested)

# Validate file is an image
MIME=$(file --mime-type -b /path/to/image.png)
if [[ ! "$MIME" =~ ^image/ ]]; then
  echo "Error: Not a valid image (detected: $MIME)"
  exit 1
fi

# Upload and get signed_id
SIGNED_ID=$(fizzy upload file /path/to/header.png | jq -r '.data.signed_id')

# Create card with background
fizzy card create --board BOARD_ID --title "Card" --image "$SIGNED_ID"

Move Card Through Workflow

# Move to a column
fizzy card column 579 --column maybe

# Assign to user
fizzy card assign 579 --user USER_ID

# Mark as golden (important)
fizzy card golden 579

# When done, close it
fizzy card close 579

Move Card to Different Board

# Move card to another board
fizzy card move 579 --to TARGET_BOARD_ID

Search and Filter Cards

# Quick search
fizzy search "bug" | jq '[.data[] | {number, title}]'

# Search with filters
fizzy search "login" --board BOARD_ID --sort newest

# Find recently created cards
fizzy card list --created today --sort newest

# Find cards closed this week
fizzy card list --indexed-by closed --closed thisweek

# Find unassigned cards
fizzy card list --unassigned --board BOARD_ID

React to a Card

# Add reaction directly to a card
fizzy reaction create --card 579 --content "👍"

# List reactions on a card
fizzy reaction list --card 579 | jq '[.data[] | {id, content, reacter: .reacter.name}]'

Add Comment with Reaction

# Add comment
COMMENT=$(fizzy comment create --card 579 --body "<p>Looks good!</p>" | jq -r '.data.id')

# Add reaction to the comment
fizzy reaction create --card 579 --comment $COMMENT --content "👍"

Rich Text Formatting

Card descriptions and comments support HTML. For multiple paragraphs with spacing:

<p>First paragraph.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Second paragraph with spacing above.</p>

Note: Each attachable_sgid can only be used once. Upload the file again for multiple uses.

Default Behaviors

• Card images: Use inline (via attachable_sgid in description) by default. Only use background/header (signed_id with --image) when user explicitly says "background" or "header".
• Comment images: Always inline. Comments do not support background images.

Workflow Summary

1. Determine the action - What does the user want?
2. Check for account context - Use --account=SLUG if needed
3. Run the fizzy command using Bash
4. Parse JSON output with jq to reduce tokens
5. Report outcome clearly, including card numbers/entity IDs for reference
