What it does Vibe Kanban is a self-hostable web app that treats AI coding agents as assignable workers. You plan tasks on a kanban board, then dispatch them to workspaces where an agent gets its own git branch, terminal, and dev server. The UI folds diff review, inline comments, browser preview with devtools, and PR creation into one loop so the human rarely has to leave the app. The backend is Rust, and it can run locally or on a remote server behind a reverse proxy.

The interesting bit The bet is that the bottleneck in agent-assisted coding is not the agent but the human overhead of planning, reviewing, and merging. By supporting ten-plus agents—from Claude Code to Codex to Cursor—the tool tries to make the model interchangeable and the workflow opinionated.

Key highlights

  • Supports ten coding agents including Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot
  • Each workspace provisions a branch, terminal, and dev server for the agent to work in
  • Built-in browser preview with devtools, inspect mode, and device emulation
  • Review diffs and leave inline comments that feed back to the agent without context-switching
  • Self-hostable via Docker; remote deployment supported with reverse-proxy origin checks

Caveats

  • The project is officially sunsetting; active development is ending and the team has posted a shutdown announcement.
  • Contributing requires prior discussion with the core team; unsolicited PRs are explicitly discouraged.

Verdict Worth a look if you want to self-host an agent orchestration UI or study how to unify ten different CLI coding tools under one roof. Skip it if you need an actively maintained project with an open contribution model.
