I built a small kanban board that my coding agents update with curl

说明与用途

KanbanEasy 是一个本地看板，代理通过 curl 更新，快速跟踪进度，无需外部服务。

问题

Managing task status for coding agents becomes confusing when multiple sessions run concurrently, and simple tools like TODO.md or commercial boards feel overkill for a one‑person workflow.

结果

KanbanEasy provides a lightweight, local kanban board that integrates seamlessly with coding agents via simple curl commands, enabling real‑time task tracking without external services.

工作流

• Open KanbanEasy docked beside the editor
• Agents claim a card with curl -s -d assignee=claude localhost:7420/claim
• Agents add comments with curl -s -H 'X-Actor: claude' --data-urlencode body='Tests pass' localhost:7420/issues/KE-7/comments
• Agents move cards to review with curl -s -X PATCH -d status=review localhost:7420/issues/KE-7
• Human adds new cards by pressing N and typing a title that encodes label, assignee, and priority
• Human reviews cards and moves them between columns
• The board updates automatically and logs all actions

证据

I tried a TODO.md, but I never looked at it. Jira or Linear felt silly for a one‑person project.

While the app is open it serves a JSON API on 127.0.0.1:7420.

Every agent I use can already run a shell command, so curl is enough

I wanted adding a card to cost almost nothing. Press N, type something like Fix flaky test #ci @agent !high and press Enter.

The whole board is one readable JSON file in a KanbanEasy folder in your home directory.
