kiln.bot - Orchestrate Claude Code from GitHub

Hey everybody! "Kiln" orchestrates Claude Code instances on your local machine using GitHub projects as its control panel. https://kiln.bot https://github.com/agentic-metallurgy/kiln If you're around Stage 6-7 on the Gas Town scale, you may have 3-15 terminal windows open.

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey everybody! "Kiln" orchestrates Claude Code instances on your local machine using GitHub projects as its control panel. https://kiln.bot https://github.com/agentic-metallurgy/kiln If you're around Stage 6-7 on the Gas Town scale, you may have 3-15 terminal windows open. You're out of screen real estate and the markdown files are piling up. TUIs and specialized IDEs are meant to help, but they're more things to manage. Kiln simply polls GitHub projects. When you move issues from one column to another, Kiln invokes Claude Code CLI to run the corresponding /command. Claude creates the worktrees, researches the codebase, creates and implements the plan. Stores it in GitHub Issues. It's meant to be simple, nothing new: - Use your existing claude subscription (no auth trickery, runs locally) - All context and state is on GitHub (no markdown mess, no local DBs, easy recovery) - Poll instead of webhooks/events (no external attack surfaces, works behind VPN) - Supports MCPs and anything else Claude can do That's the heart of it and it works because... it's just Claude :) It's got a few more tricks, but I'll cut it short. ps: sorry for fresh account, needed a real name one :) been lurking since 2008.
