# Mantis Manager Skill (Enhanced)

## 🔐 Base URL & Token Resolution

### Base URL Resolution
Base URL precedence (highest to lowest):
1. `temporary_base_url` — one-time use URL for specific operations
2. `user_base_url` — user-defined URL for the current session
3. `MANTIS_BASE_URL` — environment default URL

This allows you to:
- Switch between multiple Mantis instances dynamically
- Test against staging/production environments
- Work with different client instances without changing config

**Example:**
```
// Default: uses MANTIS_BASE_URL from environment
GET {{resolved_base_url}}/issues

// Override for one operation:
temporary_base_url = "https://mantis-staging.example.com/api/rest"
GET {{resolved_base_url}}/issues

// Override for session:
user_base_url = "https://client-mantis.example.com/api/rest"
GET {{resolved_base_url}}/issues
```

### Token Resolution
Token precedence (highest to lowest):
1. `temporary_token` — one-time use token for specific operations
2. `user_token` — user-defined token for the current session
3. `MANTIS_API_TOKEN` — environment default token

Environment variables are handled via standard OpenClaw metadata: `requires.env` declares **required** variables (`MANTIS_BASE_URL`, `MANTIS_API_TOKEN`). Any other environment variables you use for Mantis should be treated as normal process env vars and are not modeled as special OpenClaw metadata fields.

### Authentication Headers
**All API requests must include:**

```
Authorization: Bearer {{resolved_token}}
Content-Type: application/json
```

**Note:** The `{{resolved_base_url}}` and `{{resolved_token}}` are determined at runtime based on the precedence rules above.

---

## 📌 Notation Used in Examples

Throughout this documentation:
- `{{MANTIS_BASE_URL}}` refers to the **resolved base URL** (could be temporary_base_url, user_base_url, or env MANTIS_BASE_URL)
- `{{resolved_token}}` refers to the **resolved token** (could be temporary_token, user_token, or env MANTIS_API_TOKEN)
- All endpoints use the pattern: `{{MANTIS_BASE_URL}}/resource/path`

**Important:** Always use the resolution logic to determine the actual URL and token at runtime.

---

## 🔄 Context Management

> The `temporary_*` and `user_*` names here are **runtime context variables used by the skill logic**, not OpenClaw metadata fields. OpenClaw does **not** define an `optional.context` metadata key; context is resolved dynamically at runtime as described below.

### Setting Temporary Values (One-Time Use)

**User queries:**
- "Use https://staging.mantis.com/api/rest for this request"
- "Connect to production instance for this operation"
- "Use token ABC123 just this once"

**Action:**
```
Set temporary_base_url = "https://staging.mantis.com/api/rest"
Set temporary_token = "ABC123"
... perform operation ...
Clear temporary_base_url
Clear temporary_token
```

**Behavior:** Temporary values are automatically cleared after one use.

### Setting Session Values (Current Session)

**User queries:**
- "Switch to client XYZ's Mantis instance"
- "Use my personal API token for all requests"
- "Connect to staging environment"

**Action:**
```
Set user_base_url = "https://client-xyz.mantis.com/api/rest"
Set user_token = "personal_token_123"
... perform multiple operations ...
// Values persist for the entire session
```

**Behavior:** Session values persist until explicitly cleared or session ends.

### Clearing Context Values

**User queries:**
- "Reset to default Mantis instance"
- "Clear my custom token"
- "Go back to environment defaults"

**Action:**
```
Clear user_base_url
Clear user_token
// Now uses MANTIS_BASE_URL and MANTIS_API_TOKEN from environment
```

### Viewing Current Context

**User queries:**
- "What Mantis instance am I connected to?"
- "Show current API configuration"
- "Which token am I using?"

**Response should show:**
```
Current Context:
- Base URL: https://client-xyz.mantis.com/api/rest (user_base_url)
- Token: user_t***123 (user_token)
- Fallback Base URL: https://default.mantis.com/api/rest (MANTIS_BASE_URL)
- Fallback Token: env_t***789 (MANTIS_API_TOKEN)
```

### Use Cases

#### Multi-Instance Management
```
// Check production issue
Set temporary_base_url = "https://prod.mantis.com/api/rest"
Get issue 123

// Check staging issue  
Set temporary_base_url = "https://staging.mantis.com/api/rest"
Get issue 123

// Compare results
```

#### Client Switching
```
// Switch to Client A
Set user_base_url = "https://clienta.mantis.com/api/rest"
Set user_token = "clienta_token"
List all projects
Get issues for project 5

// Switch to Client B
Set user_base_url = "https://clientb.mantis.com/api/rest"
Set user_token = "clientb_token"
List all projects
Get issues for project 3
```

#### Admin Operations with Impersonation
```
// Connect to main instance as admin
Set user_token = "admin_token"

// Perform operation as specific user
Set temporary header: X-Impersonate-User = "john.doe"
Get user issues

// Back to admin
Clear temporary header
```

## 📋 Best Practices

### Pagination
- Always support `page_size` and `page` parameters for list operations
- Default page size: 50
- Inform user when results are paginated

### Field Selection
- Use `select` parameter to return only needed fields
- Example: `select=id,summary,status,priority`
- Reduces bandwidth and improves performance

### Filtering
- Use `filter_id` to apply saved filters
- Combine with pagination for large datasets
- Consider project-specific filtering with `project_id`

### Attachments
- Files must be base64-encoded
- Include filename and content in request
- Verify file size limits (check Mantis config)

### Time Tracking
- Use ISO 8601 duration format: `PT2H30M` (2 hours 30 minutes)
- Can be added to notes for time tracking

### Date Formats
- Use ISO 8601: `2026-12-31T23:59:59+00:00`
- Include timezone for accuracy

### Custom Fields
- Check project configuration for available custom fields
- Reference by field ID in requests

### Relationships
- Verify relationship types supported by your Mantis version
- Some relationships auto-create reciprocal links

```

---

## 🎯 Advanced Use Cases

### Bulk Issue Updates
When updating multiple issues:
- Loop through issue IDs
- Use PATCH for each issue
- Collect results and report summary

### Filter-Based Operations
Get all high-priority bugs:
```
1. GET /filters to find priority filter ID
2. GET /issues?filter_id={{filter_id}}&page_size=100
3. Process paginated results
```

### Project Migration
Copy project structure:
```
1. GET /projects/{{source_id}} to get project details
2. GET /projects/{{source_id}}/versions for versions
3. POST /projects to create new project
4. POST /projects/{{new_id}}/versions for each version
```

### User Audit
Track user activity:
```
1. GET /issues?reporter_id={{user_id}}
2. GET /issues?handler_id={{user_id}}
3. GET /issues?monitor_id={{user_id}}
4. Compile activity report
```

### Multi-Instance Management
Work with multiple Mantis instances:
```
// Scenario: Compare issue status across environments

1. Check production:
   Set temporary_base_url = "https://prod.mantis.com/api/rest"
   Set temporary_token = "prod_token"
   GET /issues/123
   Record status

2. Check staging:
   Set temporary_base_url = "https://staging.mantis.com/api/rest"
   Set temporary_token = "staging_token"
   GET /issues/123
   Record status

3. Compare and report differences
```

### Cross-Instance Synchronization
Sync data between instances:
```
// Scenario: Clone project from one instance to another

1. Connect to source instance:
   Set user_base_url = "https://source.mantis.com/api/rest"
   Set user_token = "source_token"
   GET /projects/5 (get project details)
   GET /projects/5/versions (get versions)
   GET /projects/5/users (get users)

2. Connect to target instance:
   Set user_base_url = "https://target.mantis.com/api/rest"
   Set user_token = "target_token"
   POST /projects (create project)
   POST /projects/{{new_id}}/versions (create versions)

3. Report sync results
```

### Client-Specific Operations
Manage multiple client instances:
```
// Scenario: Daily status report for all clients

For each client in [ClientA, ClientB, ClientC]:
  1. Set user_base_url = client.mantis_url
  2. Set user_token = client.api_token
  3. GET /issues?filter_id=1 (get today's issues)
  4. Collect statistics
  5. Clear context

Generate consolidated report
```
