Delete a board — AI Prompts for Trello

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

Execute — do the immediate task

I need the Marketing Campaign board removed because it's cluttering our active work. Archive any cards that were moved in the last 90 days, then delete the board. Tell Sasha in Operations and Miguel in Growth that the board is gone and where archived cards live, with a Friday deadline to confirm nothing is missing.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before deleting the Marketing Campaign board, make it easy for Sasha and Miguel to check for anything they still need. List cards updated in the last 180 days, surface attachments and checklists, and flag any cards assigned to people still active on other boards. Summarize what would be lost and give a safe archive export option they can accept or veto.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I clicked delete and got nervous about losing a campaign asset

I just hit delete on the Marketing Campaign board and now I remember legal might need one attachment. Sasha in Operations is on leave until Tuesday and Miguel is in meetings all week. I cannot tell whether any active checklist items are still open. What's the most defensible next step to avoid losing necessary files and who do I ping first?

Become — change the pattern

I keep permanently deleting boards that still have in-flight work

Over the last year I’ve deleted six boards thinking they were stale; each time someone later asked for an attachment or an unfinished task. I lose credibility and recreate work. What habit should I change to stop this — including a checklist or a small approval ritual that fits a busy calendar and keeps stakeholders informed?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
