This GitHub Action automates Asana task operations based on pull request (PR) descriptions. It is especially useful for keeping your task board in sync with development activities.

When a PR contains a specific trigger phrase, the action will:

• 🔗 Detect and extract Asana task links after the trigger phrase
• 💬 Add a comment (with a PR link) to each detected task
• 📦 Move main tasks to a specified section
• ✅ Mark tasks as complete (optional)

• Description: Your Asana Personal Access Token used to authenticate API requests.
• Type: string

• Description: The phrase that marks the beginning of Asana task links in the PR body.

  Only the task links after this phrase are processed.

• Type: string
• Example: 'ASANA TASKS:'

• Description: The text of the comment that will be added to each task.
  The PR link is automatically appended to the end of this comment.
• Type: string
• Example: 'Linked PR: ' → Comment becomes: "Linked PR: https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123"

• Description: The name of the section within the Asana project to which a task should be moved.
  Only applies to main tasks (not subtasks).
• Type: string
