AgentKanban for VS Code – A task board with agent harness integration

What it does

AgentKanban - The task board with AI agent harness integration. Create and plan tasks with real-time collaboration, then resume in your agent harness with context that persists across chat sessions.

The task board with agent harness integration. Create and plan tasks with real-time collaboration, then resume in your agent harness. Run projects from hosted boards, lanes, and tasks that stay accessible from both the browser and VS Code. The board remains the source of truth for the work itself. Bind agent harness chats to the active task in VS Code so prompts, responses, and task-level steering are captured against the work they belong to. Resume a task in a new chat with task-specific context already injected, so the next session starts from the relevant history instead of a bloated transcript. Ephemeral chats work for small tasks, but break down for large tasks and wider project…from agentkanban.io

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hi everyone. I wanted to introduce a tool / product that I've been working on for a while. It's a web application and VS Code extension for use with Github CoPilot (I'm planning to develop integration for other agent harnesses soon). The web app and remote boards are at: https://www.agentkanban.io The…

  Vibe Kanban – Kanban board to manage your AI coding agents2025 · github.com · ▲195

  Hey HN! I'm Louis, one of the creators of Vibe Kanban. We started working on this a few weeks ago. Personally, I was feeling pretty useless working synchronously with coding agents. The 2-5 minutes that they take to complete their work often led me to distraction and doomscrolling. But there's plenty of productive work that we (human engineers) could be doing in that time, especially if we run coding agents in the background and parallelise them. Vibe Kanban lets you effortlessly spin up multiple coding agents. While some agents handle tasks in the background, you can focus on planning…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
