The Sprint Board (Kanban)

The Sprint Board is where plans become agent work: cards move Ready → In Progress → Complete, and any card can be assigned to a named agent — assign login bug to Alex — which dispatches the card’s task to that agent’s window and tracks it to completion. Open it with open kanban or Ctrl+Shift+K.

Working the board

1. Name the project (pencil at the top).
2. Add Card into Ready; + List adds custom columns.
3. Assign: say assign <card> to <agent> or have <agent> work on <card> — fuzzy card-title matching, so “login bug” finds “Fix the login bug (OAuth)”.
4. The card follows the work; completion celebrates.

Why it beats a to-do list

• Dispatch is real: assignment sends the actual task to the agent, not a label.
• Interruption-proof: cards in flight when the app closes are re-dispatched on restart.
• Directable by Hermes: hey hermes, have Maya take the next Ready card.

The board is deliberately large and readable — resize it to wall-size on your canvas; it’s the one pane you’ll want visible in every layout (streaming layout includes it by default).
