ck:kanban

A browser-based board for viewing software plans and their progress. It shows plan cards, completed and pending phases, timelines, activity, issues, and branches.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to monitor implementation plans, review phase status, view timelines, and connect planned work with issues or branches.
Why use it?
It gives a team a visual view of work that might otherwise be scattered across plan files and project tools. This makes progress and remaining work easier to inspect.

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

ck:kanban 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 2d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plans Dashboard

Plans dashboard with progress tracking and timeline visualization.

Usage

  • ck:kanban - View dashboard for the configured plans directory
  • ck:kanban <dir> - View dashboard for specific directory
  • ck:kanban --stop - Stop running server

Features

  • Plan cards with progress bars
  • Phase status breakdown (completed, in-progress, pending)
  • Timeline/Gantt visualization
  • Activity heatmap
  • Issue and branch links

Execution

IMPORTANT: Run the server as a background command when the runtime supports it, so it remains manageable from the active session.

The skill is located at .agents/skills/plans-kanban/.

Stop Server

If --stop flag is provided:

node .agents/skills/plans-kanban/scripts/server.cjs --stop

Start Server

Otherwise, run the kanban server with --foreground flag so the process stays alive:

# Determine plans directory
INPUT_DIR="$1"
PLANS_DIR="${INPUT_DIR:-${CK_PLANS_PATH:-plans}}"

# Start kanban dashboard
node .agents/skills/plans-kanban/scripts/server.cjs \
  --dir "$PLANS_DIR" \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --open \
  --foreground

Critical: When calling the Bash tool:

  • Set run_in_background: true when the shell tool supports background processes
  • Set timeout: 300000 (5 minutes) to prevent premature termination
  • Parse JSON output and report URL to user

Example Bash tool call:

{
  "command": "node .agents/skills/plans-kanban/scripts/server.cjs --dir \"${CK_PLANS_PATH:-plans}\" --host 0.0.0.0 --open --foreground",
  "run_in_background": true,
  "timeout": 300000,
  "description": "Start kanban server in background"
}

After starting, parse the JSON output and report:

  • Local URL for browser access
  • Network URL for remote device access (if available)
  • Inform user that server is now running in the background when supported

CRITICAL: MUST display the FULL URL including path and query string. NEVER truncate to just host:port.

Future Plans

The ck:kanban command will evolve into VibeKanban-inspired AI agent orchestration:

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.

ck:kanban is a skill published in the GitHub repository manhvann/codexkit (88 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 659 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
