Gantt Board CLI (API Passthrough)

Shell CLI for Gantt Board task/project/sprint/auth workflows.

The CLI is intentionally thin:

• API is the only source of business logic.
• CLI parses args, resolves names to IDs, calls API endpoints, and formats output.
• CLI must never call the database directly.

Scripts

• gantt.sh: full API wrapper (task, project, sprint, auth, debug)
• task.sh: task-focused CRUD helpers
• project.sh: project-focused CRUD helpers
• sprint.sh: sprint-focused CRUD helpers
• lib/api_client.sh: shared HTTP client (api_call, cookie handling, URL encoding)

Requirements

• bash
• curl
• jq
• uuidgen (used by task.sh create)

Install jq on macOS:

brew install jq

Configuration

Environment variables:

• API_URL (default: http://localhost:3000/api)
• GANTT_COOKIE_FILE (default: ~/.config/gantt-board/cookies.txt)
• DEFAULT_PROJECT_ID (optional task default)
• DEFAULT_ASSIGNEE_ID (optional task default)

Authenticate once:

./gantt.sh auth login <email> <password>

Command Reference

task.sh

./task.sh list [status] [--status <v|v1,v2,...>] [--priority <v>] [--project <name-or-id>] [--assignee <name-or-id>] [--type <v>] [--limit <n>] [--json]
./task.sh get <task-id>
./task.sh current-sprint
./task.sh create --title "<title>" [--description "..."] [--type <task|bug|research|plan|idea>] [--status <status>] [--priority <priority>] [--project <name-or-id>] [--sprint <name-or-id|current>] [--assignee <name-or-id>] [--due-date YYYY-MM-DD] [--tags "a,b"] [--comments "..."]
./task.sh create --file <task.json>
./task.sh update <task-id> [--status <v>] [--priority <v>] [--title "..."] [--description "..."] [--type <v>] [--project <name-or-id>] [--assignee <name-or-id>] [--sprint <name-or-id|current>] [--due-date YYYY-MM-DD] [--add-comment "..."] [--clear-tags] [--tags "a,b"]
./task.sh update <task-id> <field> <value>   # legacy form
./task.sh delete <task-id>
./task.sh bulk-create <tasks.json>

Notes:

• --interactive is not supported in passthrough mode.
• --auto-create is not supported in passthrough mode.
• task.sh list requests GET /api/tasks?scope=active-sprint and only returns tasks in the current sprint.
• If there is no current sprint, task.sh list --json returns [].

Bulk JSON format:

[
  {
    "title": "Task 1",
    "description": "Description",
    "type": "task",
    "status": "todo",
    "priority": "high",
    "project": "Project Name",
    "sprint": "Sprint 1",
    "assignee": "Max",
    "due_date": "2026-03-01",
    "tags": "tag1,tag2",
    "comments": "Initial comment"
  }
]

project.sh

./project.sh list [--json]
./project.sh get <project-id-or-name>
./project.sh create --name "<name>" [--description "..."] [--color "#hex"]
./project.sh update <project-id-or-name> [--name "..."] [--description "..."] [--color "#hex"]
./project.sh delete <project-id-or-name>

sprint.sh

./sprint.sh list [--status <planning|active|completed>] [--active] [--json]
./sprint.sh get <sprint-id-or-name>
./sprint.sh create --name "<name>" [--goal "..."] [--start-date YYYY-MM-DD] [--end-date YYYY-MM-DD]
./sprint.sh update <sprint-id-or-name> [--name "..."] [--goal "..."] [--start-date YYYY-MM-DD] [--end-date YYYY-MM-DD]
./sprint.sh close <sprint-id-or-name>
./sprint.sh delete <sprint-id-or-name>

Sprints are global and no longer accept project filters/fields.

gantt.sh

High-level wrapper for full API surface:

• task: list/get/create/natural/update/delete/comment/attach
• project: list/get/create/update/delete
• sprint: list/get/create/update/close/delete
• auth: login/logout/session/register/forgot-password/reset-password/account/users
• debug

Examples:

./gantt.sh task list open
./gantt.sh task natural "Fix login bug by Friday, high priority"
./gantt.sh project create "Mobile App" "iOS and Android app" "#3b82f6"
./gantt.sh sprint close <sprint-id>
./gantt.sh auth session

Name Resolution

The task/project/sprint scripts support name-to-ID resolution against API data:

• project names -> projectId
• sprint names -> sprintId
• assignee names/emails -> assigneeId
• sprint value current -> /api/sprints/current

Sprint status is derived from start_date/end_date; no manual sprint status writes are required. ./sprint.sh list --active uses /api/sprints?inProgress=true and returns all sprints whose date window includes the API server's current date at execution time.

Testing

Run refactor safety suite:

npm run test:refactor

This runs:

1. TypeScript unit tests for sprint-selection logic.
2. Shell contract tests that mock API transport and validate CLI passthrough behavior.

The shell contract test also fails if direct Supabase/DB references appear in scripts/.

AI/Agent Guidance

If you are extending CLI behavior:

1. Add/modify API behavior first (src/app/api/* and server modules).
2. Keep CLI as passthrough only.
3. Add or update tests (unit + mocked CLI contract tests).
4. Do not introduce direct database calls in scripts/.

Exit Codes

• 0: success
• 1: error (invalid input, missing entity, API failure)
