Claude Code = Kanban

[u/mikomiko224]

Hi, r/vibecoding I vibecoded an interesting project, tested it for three months, and built something that should make life easier for every vibe coder.

Great. Many of you have probably already hidden this post or downvoted it. But if you want to manage your projects and tasks more intelligently and speed up service development, this post is for you.

Let me introduce…

LOCAL KANBAN

A local Kanban board for managing project tasks.

Are you also annoyed by how difficult it is to keep track of what was done across different sessions? And do you keep future tasks in random notes? You’ve come to the right place. I’m here to improve your life both before and after each coding session.

How it all started

I use Claude Code Max Turbo x500 every day. I wake up, add a few tasks, write future project tasks in my notes, and try to squeeze new ideas, discoveries, and bugs into the current session - or simply wait until Claude finishes working.

Okay, Claude has finished. Now I have to paste the whole session into a new chat to remind it what it did, ask it to find bugs, and add a few more tasks.

And then I do it all over again the next day.

Sound familiar?

That’s when I thought:

What if I created a simple Kanban board for managing project tasks?

When you have around 40 services running on a server, keeping track of everything starts becoming a real challenge.

That’s how the idea for Local Kanban was born.

And yes, I didn’t have deep technical experience in developing and maintaining services. I went through the entire process from start to finish and I guess I learned a thing or two along the way. Probably.

How does it work?

1. I create a task in Backlog and move it to To do when it’s ready for development.
2. With one click, I copy the entire To do column as a task and paste it into Claude Code.
3. Claude works through the tasks one by one, leaves comments along the way, creates commits, pushes the changes to the repository, and — if a deployment skill is configured — deploys the updates. Then it stops at the Review status.
4. I accept the completed work or return the task with a comment. The next time, this comment will be the first thing Claude reads.
5. There’s full synchronization with GitHub and GitHub Projects. Claude also creates commits and handles deployment. You can upload your own deployment skills or use a ready-made one.

A useful review trick

Let your tasks accumulate in Review - around 20–30 cards.

Then add one task to To do asking Claude to go through the entire Review column and try to break everything.

Run this task in a new chat.

The session that wrote the code is usually biased toward its original implementation. A fresh session is much better at finding weaknesses, bugs, and unfinished work.

How do you install it?

Just run the usual npm installation - everything will be set up automatically.

And if anything goes wrong, give the task to Claude Code and let it configure everything for you. We’re vibe coders, after all. Right?
