A task board for Claude Code, tied to each thread by its branch

1. Write the task: WEB-12 “Add saved carts”, with a description and acceptance criteria.
2. Start a thread on it. From the task's page, copy node ~/.agentmingo/reporter.mjs start WEB-12. It makes the task's branch in a folder of its own next to your clone (a git worktree, with your local .env files copied) and starts Claude Code there. Or name a branch yourself, such as web-12-saved-carts or ana/WEB-12.
3. The thread starts with the brief. WEB-12's title, description and acceptance criteria arrive with its first message, along with your team's rules.
4. The card moves by itself: In progress at the thread's first report, In review when a pull request opens, Done when the last one merges.

Small on purpose, and enough for a team:

• A board by status (drag cards between columns) and a list with filters and search.
• Acceptance criteria, type, priority, labels, estimate, assignee and parent task.
• Dependencies: blocks and blocked by.
• Sprints: plan, start and complete. Unfinished tasks move to another sprint or the backlog.
• Comments and history on every task.
• Each task's page lists its threads and pull requests with their review status, and what it used: tokens, cost at API prices, automatic review rounds, and the time from its first thread to its last merge.

On a Mac, a task's page has Start on my computer. Press it from your laptop's browser or your phone, and your Mac opens Terminal with Claude Code in the task's folder, already working on it. It needs reporter 19 or newer, and the setup command's box “Start threads on this computer from AgentMingo” (ticked by default).

So that no one needs to be at the Mac, a start marks your main clone of the task's repository as trusted in Claude Code. The Security page says exactly what that lets apply, and how to undo it.

• Moving a card doesn't start an agent. A thread starts when you start it. AgentMingo's own agents, which would pick up tasks themselves, are coming soon.
• There's no tasks file in your repository and no slash commands to keep up to date. Claude Code doesn't call anything to get its task. If you want Claude to check its current workflow step itself, the reporter's MCP server has a tool for that.
• Works with Claude Code today; Codex and more are next.

Follow your Jira projects instead and keep planning there: their issues become tasks on this board, and threads get them the same way.
