Workflow

Backlog and task management

Organize work into epics, tasks, and priorities with the kanban board.

User-facing guide
Jump to first section

The kanban board

Open the Backlog from Planning, Backlog in the sidebar. Tasks are organized into columns:

  • To Do — work that needs to start
  • In Progress — actively being worked on
  • Done — completed work
  • Blocked — tasks that cannot proceed

Drag tasks between columns to update their status.

Epics

Epics group related tasks. Click Create epic to add one. Each epic can be expanded or collapsed and shows progress at a glance. Organize epics by category — for example, "Research Sprint," "Homepage Design," or "Authentication Flow."

Creating tasks

Use the Quick Add bar at the top of any column to create tasks inline. Type a title and press Enter.

Click any task to open the detail drawer where you can edit:

  • Title and description
  • Priority — P0 (critical), P1 (high), P2 (medium), P3 (low)
  • Type — generation, research, refactor, design, and more
  • Status — To Do, In Progress, Done, Blocked

The drawer also shows execution history and which section the task relates to.

Version history

The backlog tracks generation versions. When you regenerate tasks, previous versions are preserved. Click the version history panel to compare or revert.

Integration with the workflow

Running a task can navigate you to the relevant section and trigger the appropriate agent. For example, a "Generate user personas" task opens Research and invokes the Researcher.
