What This Skill Does

The Cym Zentao skill is a command-line interface tool designed to integrate OpenClaw AI agents with ZenTao (Zentao), a popular project management and ALM software. This skill enables agents to interact directly with project data by providing capabilities to authenticate sessions, retrieve execution iterations, list specific project tasks, and create new task entries. By bridging the gap between your AI assistant and your ZenTao project management infrastructure, the skill automates manual tracking, allows for quick status updates, and streamlines the project development lifecycle.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, use the following CLI command:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/15334615152/cym-zentao

After installation, ensure you navigate to your project directory and run npm link to register the command. Finally, configure your environment by editing TOOLS.md to include your ZenTao API endpoint, username, and password credentials as specified in the documentation.

Use Cases

1. Automated Task Creation: Quickly generate tasks for developers during brainstorming sessions or stand-up meetings without leaving the AI interface.
2. Project Visibility: Query the status of specific iterations to provide stakeholders with instant progress summaries.
3. Efficient Sprint Planning: Batch-create tasks by piping output from other analysis skills directly into the create-task function.
4. Status Reporting: Periodically fetch active tasks to generate automated progress reports or identify bottlenecks in the development pipeline.

Example Prompts

1. "Check for all active tasks in execution 6159 and give me a summary of what is currently pending."
2. "Create a new task in iteration 6159 titled 'Refactor Login UI' assigned to '陈跃美', set the priority to 2, and estimate it at 4 hours."
3. "List all tasks in project 6159 that have a 'test' status so I can prioritize the QA backlog."

Tips & Limitations

• Security: Ensure your TOOLS.md is strictly protected, as it contains clear-text credentials for your ZenTao instance.
• Data Formatting: When using the create-task command with the options argument, ensure the JSON string is properly quoted and escaped. Invalid JSON structure will result in a command failure.
• Scope: This skill is scoped to the specific API provided in the configuration. Ensure network access is permitted to the ZTPMS host domain. If the CLI command is not found, verify that npm link was executed successfully in the skill source folder.
