Vibe Kanban - An open-source AI programming agent task management tool

What is Vibe Kanban?

Vibe Kanban is an open-source Kanban tool that helps developers efficiently manage AI coding agents, such as Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex. Through a visual Kanban board, users can easily switch and orchestrate multiple coding agents, supporting parallel or sequential task execution and real-time task status tracking. Vibe Kanban provides centralized agent configuration management and remote project access capabilities, supporting connections to remote servers via SSH.

Vibe Kanban's main functions

• Multi-agent supportIt supports multiple AI coding proxies, such as Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex, which users can switch between flexibly.
• Task orchestrationIt can run multiple coding agent tasks in parallel or sequentially, and efficiently manage complex development processes.
• Real-time task trackingThe dashboard allows you to view task status in real time, making it easy to monitor progress and adjust plans.
• Rapid review and developmentQuickly start the development server to allow users to review their work results instantly.
• Centralized configuration managementCentralized management of coding agent configuration simplifies setup processes and improves management efficiency.
• Remote project accessSupports remote access to projects via SSH, facilitating development on different devices.
• Integration and ExpansionSupports integration with development tools such as VS Code, improving the development experience and efficiency.
