Tasks & Projects Skill — arifOS_bot
Triggers: "task", "todo", "create task", "project", "kanban", "issue", "sprint", "what are my tasks", "add to backlog", "close task", "task status", "linear", "github project", "my tasks"
Option Comparison
| Tool | Status | Best for | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| GitHub Projects | ✅ Ready (GH_TOKEN set) | Code-linked tasks, arifOS issues | Free |
| Notion Database | ⚠️ Need NOTION_API_KEY | Notes + tasks in one place | Free tier |
| Linear | ⚠️ Need LINEAR_API_KEY | Engineering sprints, roadmaps | You have it |
Recommendation for Arif: GitHub Projects for code work (zero new keys), Notion DB for life/PKM tasks (one integration token). Linear if you want structured sprints.
GitHub Projects (Ready — No Setup Needed)
Uses gh CLI with existing GITHUB_TOKEN. GitHub Issues + Projects V2 board.
Create an issue (= task)
gh issue create -R ariffazil/arifOS \
--title "Task title" \
--body "Description and acceptance criteria" \
--label "enhancement" \
--assignee ariffazil
List my open tasks
gh issue list -R ariffazil/arifOS \
--assignee ariffazil \
--state open \
--limit 20 \
--json number,title,labels,createdAt \
| python3 -c "
import sys, json
issues = json.load(sys.stdin)
for i in issues:
labels = ','.join([l['name'] for l in i['labels']]) or '-'
print(f\"#{i['number']:4} [{labels:20}] {i['title']}\")
"
Update task status (via label)
gh issue edit 42 -R ariffazil/arifOS --add-label "in-progress"
gh issue edit 42 -R ariffazil/arifOS --remove-label "todo" --add-label "done"
gh issue close 42 -R ariffazil/arifOS --comment "Completed"
View project board (GitHub Projects V2)
# List your projects
gh project list --owner ariffazil
# Add issue to project
gh project item-add PROJECT_NUMBER --owner ariffazil --url https://github.com/ariffazil/arifOS/issues/42
# List project items
gh project item-list PROJECT_NUMBER --owner ariffazil --format json \
| python3 -c "import sys,json; [print(i.get('title','?'),'-',i.get('status','?')) for i in json.load(sys.stdin).get('items',[])]"
Linear (GraphQL API)
⚙️ Setup (one-time)
# 1. Get API key: https://linear.app/settings/api → Personal API Keys
# 2. Add to VPS:
echo 'LINEAR_API_KEY=lin_api_YOUR_KEY_HERE' >> /root/arifOS/.env
docker compose up -d --force-recreate openclaw
My assigned issues
curl -s -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql \
-H "Authorization: ${LINEAR_API_KEY}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"query": "query { viewer { assignedIssues(first: 20, filter: {state: {type: {nin: [\"completed\",\"cancelled\"]}}}) { nodes { id title priority state { name } team { name } dueDate } } } }"
}' | python3 -c "
import sys, json
d = json.load(sys.stdin)
issues = d['data']['viewer']['assignedIssues']['nodes']
for i in issues:
priority = ['', 'Urgent', 'High', 'Med', 'Low'][i.get('priority',0)] if i.get('priority') else '-'
print(f\"[{priority:6}] [{i['state']['name']:15}] {i['title']}\")
"
Create issue
# First get team ID
TEAM_ID=$(curl -s -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql \
-H "Authorization: ${LINEAR_API_KEY}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"query":"query { teams { nodes { id name } } }"}' \
| python3 -c "import sys,json; teams=json.load(sys.stdin)['data']['teams']['nodes']; print(teams[0]['id'])")
curl -s -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql \
-H "Authorization: ${LINEAR_API_KEY}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{
\"query\": \"mutation CreateIssue(\$input: IssueCreateInput!) { issueCreate(input: \$input) { success issue { id title } } }\",
\"variables\": {
\"input\": {
\"teamId\": \"${TEAM_ID}\",
\"title\": \"Task title here\",
\"description\": \"Details here\",
\"priority\": 3
}
}
}" | python3 -c "import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print('Created:', d['data']['issueCreate']['issue']['title'])"
Update issue state
ISSUE_ID="YOUR-ISSUE-ID"
# Get state IDs first
curl -s -X POST https://api.linear.app/graphql \
-H "Authorization: ${LINEAR_API_KEY}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"query":"query { workflowStates { nodes { id name } } }"}' \
| python3 -c "import sys,json; [print(s['name'],':',s['id']) for s in json.load(sys.stdin)['data']['workflowStates']['nodes']]"
Notion as Task Manager
If you prefer Notion databases as your kanban board (uses NOTION_API_KEY from Notion skill):
# Requires: NOTION_API_KEY + a Notion DB with Status property
TASKS_DB_ID="YOUR-NOTION-TASKS-DB-ID"
# List Todo tasks
curl -s -X POST "https://api.notion.com/v1/databases/${TASKS_DB_ID}/query" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${NOTION_API_KEY}" \
-H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"filter":{"property":"Status","select":{"equals":"Todo"}},"page_size":20}' \
| python3 -c "
import sys, json
d = json.load(sys.stdin)
for row in d['results']:
props = row['properties']
for k, v in props.items():
if v.get('type') == 'title':
title = ''.join([t['plain_text'] for t in v['title']])
print(f' • {title}')
"
# Add task
curl -s -X POST https://api.notion.com/v1/pages \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${NOTION_API_KEY}" \
-H "Notion-Version: 2022-06-28" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{
\"parent\": {\"database_id\": \"${TASKS_DB_ID}\"},
\"properties\": {
\"Name\": {\"title\": [{\"text\": {\"content\": \"New task here\"}}]},
\"Status\": {\"select\": {\"name\": \"Todo\"}}
}
}" | python3 -c "import sys,json; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print('Task created:', d.get('id'))"
arifOS_bot Default Workflow
When Arif says "add task" or "create task" without specifying:
- If code/infra-related → GitHub Issue on
ariffazil/arifOS - If life/PKM-related → Notion database (if NOTION_API_KEY set)
- If sprint/roadmap → Linear (if LINEAR_API_KEY set)
arifOS_bot — Tasks via GitHub Projects (native) + Linear + Notion
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
mcp-config-separation
drift-watcher
Periodic knowledge freshness checker: detects when local configs, runbooks, or agent knowledge have drifted from the latest official docs. Reduces the stale-knowledge paradox over time. Use when: (1) periodic health checks or heartbeat runs, (2) before major operations, (3) user asks 'am I up to date', 'check for updates', 'is anything outdated', (4) after a software upgrade to verify configs still match new docs.
MCP_CONFIG
config-guardian
Universal governed config co-pilot. Before ANY change to ANY system: (1) check latest docs and running version (docs-first), (2) propose as diff with risk analysis, never apply directly (propose-only), (3) log every change with evidence and rollback (change ledger). Works for OpenClaw, Docker, PostgreSQL, Nginx, arifOS, or any software. Triggers on: 'change config', 'fix settings', 'update', 'propose patch', 'explain config', 'validate config', 'why did we change X'. Enforces propose-only workflow — human applies via git.
