Show HN: Kanban-CLI – a web UI for local Markdown todo lists

https://github.com/Vochsel/kanban-cli

As we all are, I've been experimenting with ways to reduce external saas spend, and continually bring traditionally external pieces of context (prs, docs, trello boards) into the one mono repo.

I have toyed with a markdown todo list and setting claude/codex into a "ralph" loop previously, but always missed the web ui for organising, planning, and tracking things in progress.

So codex and I build kanban-cli, an installable or npx-runnable cli util that takes one or more markdown files, and uses markdown headers and todo syntax to track and manage agentic tasks.

Let me know your thoughts, or if you've got a more convenient way of managing tasks!

I was tempted to link to the project landing page https://kanban-cli.vochsel.com as I made a cute example demo, but linking to the repo felt less self-promo-y.

Cheers!

I am using this an really like it. I wish ‘#’ could be the title and ‘##’ could be the column names. Other than that it is kinda perfect
