What problem does it solve?
It solves the problem of managing coding agent work as messy, hard-to-track sessions by giving you a reliable CLI-driven Kanban workflow for creating, linking, starting, and reviewing tasks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Task lifecycle management: create tasks, start them with worktrees and agent sessions, move them through review, and archive them to trash.
- Dependency orchestration: link tasks so A waits for B, auto-unblocking A when B reaches the right lifecycle stage.
- Hook-based integrations: send runtime events via notify/ingest and wrap agent-specific behaviors (Gemini and Codex) to fit Kanban’s completion and review flow.
- Configuration and storage visibility: manage global/project config, understand data directories, and troubleshoot with direct checks of stored JSON.
- Codex guardrails: applies special handling for Codex completion detection by using auto-review commit mode and avoiding incompatible modes/patterns.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to help you start the Kanban runtime and create a new implementation task with auto-review enabled, then return the task ID you should use for starting the task and linking dependencies.
