Archive tasks without deleting them, see at a glance how long work has been sitting, and track which agent owns what — this release adds the building blocks for disciplined kanban flow.
New: Archive status for soft-deleting tasks
Tasks can now be archived instead of deleted. Archived tasks are hidden from list, board, metrics, and the TUI by default, but they still satisfy dependencies and are preserved on disk.
# Archive a task (or several at once)
kanban-md archive 42
kanban-md archive 10,11,12
# See archived tasks
kanban-md list --archived
# Config auto-migrates — "archived" is added as the final statusNew: Progressive age colors in TUI
Task cards now show how long they've been in their current status, color-coded from dim gray (fresh) through green, yellow, orange, to red (1 week+). Colors update live every 30 seconds. Thresholds are configurable in config.yml under age_thresholds.
New: Claim info on a dedicated card line
In multi-agent workflows, the @agent-name claim is now displayed on its own line in TUI cards instead of being crammed onto the detail line alongside priority and tags. Cards without claims stay compact — the extra line only appears when at least one task on the board is claimed.
New: Landing page
The project now has a landing page at antopolskiy.github.io/kanban-md, deployed automatically via GitHub Pages.
Changed: Config version 5 → 6
The config schema was bumped to version 6 to add the archived status. Existing configs are migrated automatically on first use — no action needed.
Upgrading
No manual steps required. Config files auto-migrate to v6 on first run. If you use Homebrew, run brew upgrade kanban-md.
