Why KANBAII

Claude Code is the engine. KANBAII is the cockpit.

You can manage a project from the terminal. But when your project has 15 features, 8 bugs, and 3 refactors — opening a browser and seeing everything as a kanban board, dragging priorities, reading plans, and launching agents that work your backlog — that's a different experience.

KANBAII is a visual kanban board that sits on top of Claude Code. Organize your work visually, plan with AI, and when you're ready — hit play and watch your agents execute.
Same engine. Better cockpit.

30-Second Start

Prerequisites: Claude Code installed and authenticated.

That's it. Your board is at localhost:5555. Data stays on your machine as clean JSON files.

How It Works

1. Organize in two levels

Work Items are the meaningful chunks. Each one gets its own kanban board with Backlog → Todo → In Progress → Review → Done.

2. Plan with AI (or manually)

Open the Planner — describe what you want in plain language:
"I need user auth with login, signup, password reset, and OAuth for Google & GitHub"

AI generates structured work items with plans and tasks. Review, edit, approve. Or skip the AI and create everything manually — your call.

3. Execute

Three modes, pick what fits:

Ralph reads the plan, resolves dependencies, executes tasks in order, and moves them to Review. Teams does the same — but with multiple workers, simultaneously.

When To Use What

This is the key question. Here's the honest answer:

The rule: if you can describe it in one sentence → Claude Code. If you need a list → KANBAII.
