kanban-agent

kanban-agent is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from JansenAnalytics/claudex. It costs 49 tokens per session (788 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A persistent task board stored in SQLite, with tasks that can move through stages such as backlog, in progress, review, and done. It also supports priorities, deadlines, dependencies, projects, tags, and history.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, update, search, prioritise, schedule, complete, block, and organise tasks across projects.
Why use it?
It keeps task status and related details available across sessions instead of relying on temporary conversation context. Dependencies and history make blocked work and past changes easier to track.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

kanban-agent scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/kanban.cjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Kanban Agent Skill

Overview

Persistent task board backed by SQLite. Survives across sessions. Supports priorities (p0-p3), statuses (backlog → todo → in-progress → review → done), deadlines, dependencies, projects, tags, and full history logging.

Agent Behavior

Auto-creating tasks

When the user mentions something to do, track, or remember — create a task:

node kanban.cjs add "Wire onTokenSelect in Market Dashboard" --project brewboard --priority p2 --tags "frontend"

During heartbeats

Run kanban standup to check what's active, blocked, or overdue. Report anything urgent.

Completing work

After finishing a task, mark it done:

node kanban.cjs done 5 --note "Implemented and tested"

Priority Guide

  • p0 🔴 Critical — blocking the user or production
  • p1 🟠 High — should do today/tomorrow
  • p2 🟡 Normal — this week
  • p3 ⚪ Nice-to-have — when time permits

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
