Project Board Sync - GitHub Projects Integration

Overview

Synchronize AI swarms with GitHub Projects for visual task management, progress tracking, and team coordination.

Core Features

1. Board Initialization

# Connect swarm to GitHub Project using gh CLI
# Get project details
PROJECT_ID=$(gh project list --owner @me --format json | \
  jq -r '.projects[] | select(.title == "Development Board") | .id')

# Initialize swarm with project
npx ruv-swarm github board-init \
  --project-id "$PROJECT_ID" \
  --sync-mode "bidirectional" \
  --create-views "swarm-status,agent-workload,priority"

# Create project fields for swarm tracking
gh project field-create $PROJECT_ID --owner @me \
  --name "Swarm Status" \
  --data-type "SINGLE_SELECT" \
  --single-select-options "pending,in_progress,completed"

2. Task Synchronization

# Sync swarm tasks with project cards
npx ruv-swarm github board-sync \
  --map-status '{
    "todo": "To Do",
    "in_progress": "In Progress",
    "review": "Review",
    "done": "Done"
  }' \
  --auto-move-cards \
  --update-metadata

3. Real-time Updates

# Enable real-time board updates
npx ruv-swarm github board-realtime \
  --webhook-endpoint "https://api.example.com/github-sync" \
  --update-frequency "immediate" \
  --batch-updates false
