Description
Automatically look up Teamwork task status, details, or project information when user mentions ticket numbers, asks "what's the status of", or needs quick project context. Performs focused queries without creating or modifying data. Invoke when user asks "status of PROJ-123", "what's in that ticket?", "show me task details", or references Teamwork ticket numbers.

Teamwork Integrator Skill

Philosophy

Quick context without interruption. Developers need fast access to task status and details without leaving their flow. This skill provides read-only Teamwork integration for instant lookups.

When to Use This Skill

This skill activates when users:

  • Mention ticket numbers in format: PROJ-123, SITE-456, etc.
  • Ask "what's the status of [ticket]?"
  • Say "show me task [number]"
  • Ask "what's in that ticket?"
  • Reference Teamwork tasks conversationally
  • Need project context ("which project is this?", "show me projects")

Do NOT activate for:

  • Creating new tasks (use teamwork-task-creator instead)
  • Updating existing tasks (use the Teamwork MCP directly from the main session, or invoke teamwork-task-creator for new tasks)
  • Exporting audit findings (use teamwork-exporter instead)
  • Complex multi-task operations (use the Teamwork MCP directly from the main session)

Ticket Number Pattern Recognition

The skill recognizes standard ticket formats (PROJ-123, SITE-456, etc.) and can clarify ambiguous references.

For complete pattern details, see Ticket Patterns.

Core Operations

The skill provides four read-only operations:

  1. Quick Status Check - Status, assignee, priority, due date
  2. Task Details - Full description, criteria, comments, dependencies
  3. Project Context - List active projects and recent tasks
  4. Link Tasks in PRs - Auto-detect ticket numbers in branches/commits

For complete operation details and examples, see Operations Reference.

For MCP tool usage, see MCP Tools Reference.

Workflow

1. Detect ticket number pattern in user input
   └─ If unclear → Ask for clarification

2. Load required Teamwork MCP tool via ToolSearch
   └─ If tool fails → Provide manual lookup instructions

3. Execute read-only query
   └─ If not found → Check project prefix, suggest alternatives

4. Format response with key information
   └─ Always include direct Teamwork link

5. Suggest next actions if relevant
   └─ "Would you like to update this task?"
   └─ "Ready to create a PR for this?"

Error Handling

Ticket Not Found

Response:

I couldn't find ticket PROJ-123 in Teamwork.

**Possible reasons:**
- Ticket number might be incorrect
- You might not have access to this project
- Project prefix might be different

**What to try:**
1. Double-check the ticket number
2. Run `/teamwork` to see available projects
3. Check Teamwork directly: https://yourcompany.teamwork.com

MCP Server Not Available

Response:

I'm unable to connect to the Teamwork MCP server.

**Manual lookup:**
1. Go to https://yourcompany.teamwork.com
2. Search for task: PROJ-123
3. Or use the project search in Teamwork

**To fix MCP server:**
Check that the Teamwork MCP server is configured in your Claude Code settings.

Ambiguous Request

Response:

I need a bit more context. Are you asking about:
- **Status check:** "What's the status of PROJ-123?"
- **Task details:** "Show me PROJ-123"
- **Update task:** "Update PROJ-123 status to in-progress" (the main session handles this directly via the Teamwork MCP)

Integration with PR Workflow

Auto-detect in Branch Names

When user creates PR, scan branch name for ticket numbers:

Branch: feature/PROJ-123-user-auth

Auto-add to PR body:

Implements: PROJ-123
Link: https://example.teamwork.com/tasks/123456

Scan Commit Messages

Look for ticket references in commits:

Commit: "PROJ-123: Add OAuth providers"

Auto-add to PR body:

Related Tickets:
- PROJ-123: Implement user authentication

Format PR Description

Complete PR section:

## Teamwork Tasks

This PR addresses the following tickets:

### Implements
- [PROJ-123: Implement user authentication](https://example.teamwork.com/tasks/123456)
  - Status: In Progress → Completed (when merged)
  - OAuth2 with Google and GitHub

### Related
- [PROJ-100: Database schema updates](https://example.teamwork.com/tasks/123450) (dependency)

## Testing

Testing steps from Teamwork tasks:
1. [Steps from PROJ-123 acceptance criteria]

CMS-Specific Context

When displaying task details, highlight platform-specific information (Drupal multidev URLs, WordPress staging, NextJS preview environments).

For complete CMS context examples, see CMS Context.

Companion Skills and Direct MCP Calls

This skill is read-only by design — it looks up tasks and surfaces project context without modifying anything. For other Teamwork operations, the main session has direct access to the Teamwork MCP (mcp__teamwork__* tools); use it directly or hand off to a companion skill.

Use teamwork-task-creator skill when:

  • The user wants to create a new task with template selection
  • A bug report, feature request, or QA handoff needs to be filed
  • Conversation context provides task requirements that should be tracked

Use teamwork-exporter skill when:

  • An audit (security, performance, accessibility, code quality) needs to be turned into a batch of Teamwork tasks
  • Multiple findings need template selection, priority mapping, and dependency linking applied consistently

Call the Teamwork MCP directly from the main session when:

  • Updating tasks — status changes, assignments, adding comments
  • Multiple read+write operations — "show me overdue tasks, then create follow-ups"
  • Complex queries — filtering across projects, assignees, tags

The MCP tools (mcp__teamwork__twprojects-*) are available to the main session in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Codex. No agent spawning required.

Best Practices

DO:

  • ✅ Provide direct Teamwork links
  • ✅ Format output for readability (markdown)
  • ✅ Include key info (status, assignee, priority)
  • ✅ Suggest next actions
  • ✅ Auto-detect ticket numbers in conversation

DON'T:

  • ❌ Attempt to modify tasks (read-only skill)
  • ❌ Overwhelm with too much detail (keep it focused)
  • ❌ Make assumptions about ticket number format
  • ❌ Ignore error cases (always handle gracefully)

Output Format

Always structure responses with:

  1. Clear heading with ticket number and title
  2. Key info (status, assignee, priority) in bold
  3. Relevant sections (description, criteria, comments)
  4. Direct link to Teamwork task
  5. Suggested next actions (optional)

Use emojis sparingly for status:

  • ⏳ In Progress
  • 🎯 Ready for QA
  • ✓ Complete
  • 🚫 Blocked
  • 📋 Not Started
