Escalate stale Trello cards to Slack by age tier
Scans a Trello board daily for cards with no activity past their age thresholds and posts tiered escalation alerts to Slack.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- LogicBucket cards into warning / stale / critical tiers
- ActionResolve assigned member namesTrello
- OutputPost tiered escalation digest to channelSlack
What it does
Every morning this workflow inspects each open card on a chosen Trello board, calculates how many days have passed since its last activity, and sorts cards into warning, stale, and critical tiers. It then posts a single grouped digest to Slack so the team sees exactly which cards are slipping and who owns them.
When to use it
Run it when work-in-progress quietly stalls and nobody notices until a deadline slips. It is ideal for delivery teams that live in Slack and want a gentle daily nudge instead of manually auditing the board.
How it works
- 1A daily schedule fires the run at a fixed local time.
- 2The workflow pulls all open cards and their last-activity timestamps from the Trello board.
- 3A logic step buckets each card into warning (3+ days idle), stale (7+), or critical (14+) and drops anything fresh.
- 4It looks up the assigned member name for each flagged card via Trello.
- 5A formatted digest is posted to the team channel in Slack, grouped by tier with @-mentions for owners.
