A native macOS kanban app that turns Claude Code into your personal task manager. You chat in the terminal, the board updates live.

• You chat with Claude Code in the terminal — describe tasks, ask for a status, or tell it to act
• Claude Code edits tasks.json — adds, updates, moves, or completes tasks
• The app watches the file and updates the kanban board in real time
• If Claude Code can do a task (research, writing, code), it does it and marks it done

git clone https://github.com/valentingarnier/missioncontrol.git
cd missioncontrol
swift run

First build takes ~30s. The app window appears with a dock icon. Leave it running.

In another terminal:

cd missioncontrol
claude   # start Claude Code — it reads CLAUDE.md and knows the project

Then just talk: "Add a task to research competitors for my SaaS" or "/status" to review the board.

• 3-column kanban: To Do → In Progress → Done
• Dynamic projects: Organize tasks by life domain (Business, Job, or custom)
• Task cards: Title, description, project badge, estimated time, WHY it matters
• Drag & drop: Move tasks between columns
• Live reload: File watcher picks up external changes instantly
• Deliverable links: Done tasks link to output files — click to open
• Dock icon: Custom vibecoded icon, proper Cmd+Tab presence
• /status command: Claude Code reviews the board and proposes what to work on
