Code Kanban Pro

Plan your work without leaving VS Code. Track tasks on a board, keep notes in Markdown, and send a story to your AI coding tool. By Valdex.

Features

• Fixed story numbers. Each story keeps its number, even when you move or archive it.
• Easy notes. Write with a rich-text editor or edit the Markdown file.
• A quick overview. See task counts and work in progress in the sidebar.
• Find work fast. Search cards and filter by priority, assignee, label, or due date.
• Your board, your way. Drag cards, rename columns, choose header colors, and group stories by epic.
• Matches your editor. Automatically follows your VS Code light or dark theme.
• Build with AI. Send a story to an installed Claude, Codex, Copilot, or OpenCode command-line tool, or copy the prompt.

Cards stay in local Markdown files, outside your project. Each workspace folder has its own board. Boards are not synced by Git.
