# 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
```bash
# 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
```bash
# 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
```bash
# 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
```

## Configuration

### Board Mapping Configuration
```yaml
# .github$board-sync.yml
version: 1
project:
  name: "AI Development Board"
  number: 1
  
mapping:
  # Map swarm task status to board columns
  status:
    pending: "Backlog"
    assigned: "Ready"
    in_progress: "In Progress"
    review: "Review"
    completed: "Done"
    blocked: "Blocked"
    
  # Map agent types to labels
  agents:
    coder: "🔧 Development"
    tester: "🧪 Testing"
    analyst: "📊 Analysis"
    designer: "🎨 Design"
    architect: "🏗️ Architecture"
    
  # Map priority to project fields
  priority:
    critical: "🔴 Critical"
    high: "🟡 High"
    medium: "🟢 Medium"
    low: "⚪ Low"
    
  # Custom fields
  fields:
    - name: "Agent Count"
      type: number
      source: task.agents.length
    - name: "Complexity"
      type: select
      source: task.complexity
    - name: "ETA"
      type: date
      source: task.estimatedCompletion
```

### View Configuration
```javascript
// Custom board views
{
  "views": [
    {
      "name": "Swarm Overview",
      "type": "board",
      "groupBy": "status",
      "filters": ["is:open"],
      "sort": "priority:desc"
    },
    {
      "name": "Agent Workload",
      "type": "table",
      "groupBy": "assignedAgent",
      "columns": ["title", "status", "priority", "eta"],
      "sort": "eta:asc"
    },
    {
      "name": "Sprint Progress",
      "type": "roadmap",
      "dateField": "eta",
      "groupBy": "milestone"
    }
  ]
}
```

## Automation Features

### 1. Auto-Assignment
```bash
# Automatically assign cards to agents
npx ruv-swarm github board-auto-assign \
  --strategy "load-balanced" \
  --consider "expertise,workload,availability" \
  --update-cards
```

### 2. Progress Tracking
```bash
# Track and visualize progress
npx ruv-swarm github board-progress \
  --show "burndown,velocity,cycle-time" \
  --time-period "sprint" \
  --export-metrics
```

### 3. Smart Card Movement
```bash
# Intelligent card state transitions
npx ruv-swarm github board-smart-move \
  --rules '{
    "auto-progress": "when:all-subtasks-done",
    "auto-review": "when:tests-pass",
    "auto-done": "when:pr-merged"
  }'
```

## Board Commands

### Create Cards from Issues
```bash
# Convert issues to project cards using gh CLI
# List issues with label
ISSUES=$(gh issue list --label "enhancement" --json number,title,body)

# Add issues to project
echo "$ISSUES" | jq -r '.[].number' | while read -r issue; do
  gh project item-add $PROJECT_ID --owner @me --url "https:/$github.com/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY$issues/$issue"
done

# Process with swarm
npx ruv-swarm github board-import-issues \
  --issues "$ISSUES" \
  --add-to-column "Backlog" \
  --parse-checklist \
  --assign-agents
```

### Bulk Operations
```bash
# Bulk card operations
npx ruv-swarm github board-bulk \
  --filter "status:blocked" \
  --action "add-label:needs-attention" \
  --notify-assignees
```

### Card Templates
```bash
# Create cards from templates
npx ruv-swarm github board-template \
  --template "feature-development" \
  --variables '{
    "feature": "User Authentication",
    "priority": "high",
    "agents": ["architect", "coder", "tester"]
  }' \
  --create-subtasks
```

## Advanced Synchronization

### 1. Multi-Board Sync
```bash
# Sync across multiple boards
npx ruv-swarm github multi-board-sync \
  --boards "Development,QA,Release" \
  --sync-rules '{
    "Development->QA": "when:ready-for-test",
    "QA->Release": "when:tests-pass"
  }'
```

### 2. Cross-Organization Sync
```bash
# Sync boards across organizations
npx ruv-swarm github cross-org-sync \
  --source "org1/Project-A" \
  --target "org2/Project-B" \
  --field-mapping "custom" \
  --conflict-resolution "source-wins"
```

### 3. External Tool Integration
```bash
# Sync with external tools
npx ruv-swarm github board-integrate \
  --tool "jira" \
  --mapping "bidirectional" \
  --sync-frequency "5m" \
  --transform-rules "custom"
```

## Visualization & Reporting

### Board Analytics
```bash
# Generate board analytics using gh CLI data
# Fetch project data
PROJECT_DATA=$(gh project item-list $PROJECT_ID --owner @me --format json)

# Get issue metrics
ISSUE_METRICS=$(echo "$PROJECT_DATA" | jq -r '.items[] | select(.content.type == "Issue")' | \
  while read -r item; do
    ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$item" | jq -r '.content.number')
    gh issue view $ISSUE_NUM --json createdAt,closedAt,labels,assignees
  done)

# Generate analytics with swarm
npx ruv-swarm github board-analytics \
  --project-data "$PROJECT_DATA" \
  --issue-metrics "$ISSUE_METRICS" \
  --metrics "throughput,cycle-time,wip" \
  --group-by "agent,priority,type" \
  --time-range "30d" \
  --export "dashboard"
```

### Custom Dashboards
