Trello-backed TODO MCP

Ideas that come up mid-task get lost if capturing them means switching tools and losing context. This is a small MCP server, built with FastMCP, that turns “remember to fix this later” into one tool call from inside an agent session: it lands straight on a Trello board, already labeled with the repo and branch it came from.
Repo and branch detection is pure Python, no shelling out to git — it reads the working directory the server is running in. Six tools cover the loop end to end: capture a card, search or list them, move and annotate one as work progresses, close it out with a summary, and attach or pull files (an AGENTS.md handed over from a card is a recurring use). Labels and lists are resolved by name and cached, so a new project just starts using them.
It’s unglamorous by design — the value isn’t a feature, it’s that nothing gets lost between “I should look at that” and actually looking at it. This whole site’s Projects/Videos/Blog backlog runs through it.
