Twill Cloud Coding Agent

Use this skill to run Twill workflows through the public v1 API.

Setup

Set API key and optional base URL:

export TWILL_API_KEY="your_api_key"
export TWILL_BASE_URL="${TWILL_BASE_URL:-https://twill.ai}"

All API calls use:

Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY

Use this helper to reduce repetition:

api() {
  curl -sS "$@" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json"
}

curl -sS "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/tasks/TASK_ID_OR_SLUG" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY"

Returns task metadata plus latestJob including status, type, plan content, and plan outcome when available.

Send Follow-Up Message

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/tasks/TASK_ID_OR_SLUG/messages" -d '{"message":"Please prioritize login flow first","userIntent":"PLAN"}'

userIntent and files are optional.

List Task Jobs

curl -sS "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/tasks/TASK_ID_OR_SLUG/jobs?limit=30&cursor=BASE64_CURSOR" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY"

Cancel Task

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/tasks/TASK_ID_OR_SLUG/cancel" -d '{}'

Archive Task

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/tasks/TASK_ID_OR_SLUG/archive" -d '{}'

Jobs

Stream Job Logs (SSE)

curl -N "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/jobs/JOB_ID/logs/stream" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY" -H "Accept: text/event-stream"

Stream emits JSON payloads in data: lines and terminates with a complete event.

Cancel Job

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/jobs/JOB_ID/cancel" -d '{}'

Scheduled Tasks

List and Create

curl -sS "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/scheduled-tasks" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY"

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/scheduled-tasks" -d '{
  "title":"Daily triage",
  "message":"Review urgent issues and open tasks",
  "repositoryUrl":"https://github.com/org/repo",
  "baseBranch":"main",
  "cronExpression":"0 9 * * 1-5",
  "timezone":"America/New_York",

Read, Update, Delete

curl -sS "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/scheduled-tasks/SCHEDULED_TASK_ID" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TWILL_API_KEY"

api -X POST "$TWILL_BASE_URL/api/v1/scheduled-tasks/SCHEDULED_TASK_ID/resume" -d '{}'

Behavior

  • Use userIntent (SWE, PLAN, ASK, DEV_ENVIRONMENT) when calling API endpoints directly.
  • Create task, report task.url, and only poll/stream logs when requested.
  • Ask for TWILL_API_KEY if missing.
  • Do not print API keys or other secrets.
