Fizzy CLI Skill
Manage Fizzy boards, cards, steps, comments, and reactions.
Quick Reference
| Resource | List | Show | Create | Update | Delete |
|----------|------|------|--------|--------|--------|
| board | board list | board show ID | board create | board update ID | board delete ID |
| card | card list | card show NUMBER | card create | card update NUMBER | card delete NUMBER |
| column | column list --board ID | column show ID --board ID | column create | column update ID | column delete ID |
| comment | comment list --card NUMBER | comment show ID --card NUMBER | comment create | comment update ID | comment delete ID |
| step | - | step show ID --card NUMBER | step create | step update ID | step delete ID |
| reaction | reaction list | - | reaction create | - | reaction delete ID |
| tag | tag list | - | - | - | - |
| user | user list | user show ID | - | - | - |
| notification | notification list | - | - | - | - |
ID Formats
IMPORTANT: Cards use TWO identifiers:
| Field | Format | Use For |
|-------|--------|---------|
| id | 03fe4rug9kt1mpgyy51lq8i5i | Internal ID (in JSON responses) |
| number | 579 | CLI commands (card show, card update, etc.) |
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
"meta": {
"timestamp": "2026-01-12T21:21:48Z"
}
}
List responses with pagination:
{
"success": true,
"data": [ ... ],
"pagination": {
"has_next": true,
"next_url": "https://..."
},
"meta": { ... }
}
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": { ... }
}

Pagination
List commands use --page for pagination. There is NO --limit flag.
# Get first page (default)

# Fetch ALL pages at once
fizzy card list --all
Commands supporting --all and --page:
board listcard listcomment listtag listuser listnotification list
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'

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 "$SIGNED_ID"
Move Card Through Workflow
# Move to a column
fizzy card column 579 --column maybe
# Assign to user
fizzy card assign 579 --user USER_ID
# Mark as golden (important)
fizzy card golden 579
# When done, close it
fizzy card close 579
Add Comment with Reaction
# Add comment
COMMENT=$(fizzy comment create --card 579 --body "<p>Looks good!</p>" | jq -r '.data.id')
# Add reaction
fizzy reaction create --card 579 --comment $COMMENT --content "π"
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_sgidin description) by default. Only use background/header (signed_idwith--image) when user explicitly says "background" or "header". - Comment images: Always inline. Comments do not support background images.
Workflow Summary
- Determine the action - What does the user want?
- Check for account context - Use
--account=SLUGif needed - Run the fizzy command using Bash
- Parse JSON output with jq to reduce tokens
- Report outcome clearly, including card numbers/entity IDs for reference
