# 🦅 Team 2890 — Task Board Guide
 
Welcome to the **#tasks** channel! This is where Team 2890 tracks what we're working on. It's dead simple — here's how to use it.
 
---
 
## ✅ The Golden Rule
 
**If you're working on something, it goes on the board.** If it's done, it moves to Done. No exceptions — the board only works if it reflects reality.
 
---
 
## 🧱 The Board Lanes
 
| Lane | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| **Backlog** | Needs to be done, not actively being worked |
| **In Progress** | Someone is actively working on it right now |
| **Review** | Done but needs someone else to check it |
| **Done** | Verified complete, ship it |
 
---
 
## ⚡ Quick Command Reference
 
### Adding a Task
```
!task add Fix the shooter lock jitter $programming $urgent
!task add Order replacement swerve modules $parts
```
The bot will ask you which lane if you don't specify.
 
### Moving a Task
```
!task done <task-id>       ← moves to Done
!task move <task-id> → in-progress   ← moves to a lane
```
 
### Viewing the Board
```
!task list                 ← shows all lanes at a glance
!task list in-progress     ← shows just that lane
!task <task-id>            ← shows full details of one card
```
 
### Sprint Digest
```
!board post                ← bot posts live board summary (pinned)
!standup start             ← opens a standup thread
```

## 📋 Task Anatomy
 
A good task has:
- **A specific thing to do** — "Fix" not "maybe fix someday"
- **A #tag** — programming / electrical / mechanical / parts / scouting / docs
- **A person** — you (the author) are auto-assigned
 
Bad: "work on shooter"
Good: "Fix shooter lock jitter — investigate command timing delays $programming"
 
---
 
## 💡 Formatting Tips
 
- **Priority** auto-detected from $urgent (high), $low (low), or leave it (medium)
- **Your name** is captured from your Discord username automatically
- **No task ID?** Use `!task list` to find the ID, or just ask the bot "what are we working on?"
 
---
 
## 🚫 Don't
 
- Don't post tasks as plain text without `!task` — the bot won't track them
- Don't assign tasks to people who aren't here
- Don't put everything in Backlog — if someone's actively working it, it should be **In Progress**
- Don't close a task until it's actually verified done
