What it does

Point this workflow at a Trello list and it processes every card in it, summarizing each card's comment thread into a decision, rationale, and outcome, then writes the whole set as a structured decision register in Coda. It is the one-shot way to preserve an entire project's reasoning before you archive the list.

When to use it

Use it at the end of a sprint, quarter, or project when you are about to clean up a Trello list and want a permanent, readable record of every decision in Coda first. Ideal for retrospectives and handoffs where the comment threads hold context that would otherwise be lost.

How it works

  1. 1A manual trigger starts the run with a target list selected.
  2. 2The flow retrieves all cards and their comments from that Trello list.
  3. 3A logic step batches the cards and skips empty or template cards.
  4. 4An OpenAI call summarizes each card into decision, rationale, and outcome.
  5. 5The batch is written to Coda as a structured decision register, one row per card.
