KanBots: Open-Source AI Kanban Board for Claude Code & Codex Agents

Kanbots launched as an open-source, local-first AI kanban board that enables developers to run multiple autonomous coding agents in parallel. The tool creates isolated git worktrees for each task, allowing Claude Code and Codex agents to operate simultaneously without interference, while tracking progress, costs, and decisions in real time.

Kanbots is a local-first AI kanban board designed for developers who want AI agents to work on multiple tasks in parallel instead of one conversation at a time. You open a repository, drop it into Kanbots, and instantly get a visual board where every card can become its own autonomous AI task. Claude Code or Codex agents run inside isolated git worktrees, allowing multiple coding sessions to happen simultaneously without interfering with each other. It treats AI agents more like active team members than chat assistants. Agents can split tasks into subtasks, review their own work, iterate in autopilot cycles, run QA loops, and continue refining changes until tests pass or a budget limit is reached. The board updates live as agents work, showing logs, decisions, costs, branches, and progress in real time. Kanbots stays heavily focused on local ownership. Everything lives inside the .kanbots/ directory within your project, database, configs, worktrees, attachments, and runtime state.
