Hey Makers :waving_hand:

A huge thank-you to everyone who joined our first-ever Make Community Build-Off co-hosted with our Community Champion, @Henk-Operative. :reminder_ribbon:

Congratulations to our amazing contestants,@Eduardo_Cifre_Sanche, @NeillHuman, @Harrison_Caldeira, and of course, our first-ever Make Community Build-Off winner, Juliana Olarte aka @Traveling_Jujj :trophy:

The event was was a high-energy success, fueled by the incredible creativity of our participants and an active live audience. It was a pleasure to watch the contestants navigate the new AI Agent use cases with such insight, proving that live building is as educational as it is entertaining. The vibrant atmosphere and thoughtful commentary made for a fantastic pilot, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the talent on display.:clap:

As promised, here is the full challenge task, recording of the event, and @Traveling_Jujj’s use case, all below. :flexed_biceps:

Main challenge task:

Build an AI Agent that handles tasks in Asana, through Telegram, with the following rules and capabilities.

  • All interactions are done with Telegram (no need to identify the user for this use-case), just use a private Telegram Bot.
  • There must be a continuity of follow-up questions (short-term memory/Conversations).
  • You can create and use a single Asana Workspace and project (can be hard-coded). No need to handle sections (create 3 sections, and let the tasks fall into the first one).

In Telegram, you should be able to do the following:

  • create a task (name, due date, description) => to make it simpler, let’s always assign it to yourself.
  • update a task.
  • delete a task.
  • get task details.
  • list tasks.
  • Any other question about your tasks.

Extra add-on challenges (nice-to-have):

  1. Add Audio capabilities to your Agent (through Telegram) for asking questions with voice.
  2. Give Telegram users the capability to “reset” the session (ConversationID), and/or implement a time limit for the session (eg: 1h).
  3. Give the capability for the AI Agent to add and list “comments” to any task.
  4. Allow the AI Agent to add/remove TAGS. This requires specific endpoints with “Make an API Call”: Add a tag to a task: Add a tag to a task Remove a tag from a task: Remove a tag from a task Create a tag: Create a tag List tags: A Make Module is provided.
  5. (If 4 is done): ask the AI Agent to guess whether a task is professional or personal. If Personal, add a “Personal” tag to the task.
  6. Give the capability to move tasks to different sections. (eg: move “action 1” to section “Doing”).

What Juliana built:

The agent allows users to manage their entire Asana workflow without ever leaving Telegram. Key capabilities include:

  • Full Task Lifecycle Management: Users can create, update, delete, and list tasks using natural language.
  • Conversational Memory: By implementing a short-term memory/ConversationID system, the agent understands follow-up questions (e.g., “Change the due date for that last one to Friday”).
  • Automated Organization: The agent is hard-coded to a specific Asana Workspace and Project, automatically assigning tasks to the user and organizing them into the correct sections.

The Scenario Logic:

  • Telegram Webhook: Captures incoming text or voice messages from the private bot.
  • AI Context & Memory: Uses a “Conversation” module to maintain a thread of history, ensuring the AI knows which task the user is referring to during follow-ups.
  • Tool Routing: The AI is equipped with specific “Tools” (Make functions) that map to Asana API endpoints:
  • Create Task: Maps name, description, and due date.
  • Update/Delete: Uses task IDs retrieved from the search history.
  • List/Get Details: Pulls real-time data from the Asana project.
  • Response Loop: The agent confirms the action back to the user in Telegram, providing a summary of the changes made.
