v0.28.0 "Warm Signal" — Polish & Consistency

on GitHub

A refinement release focused on visual polish, output consistency, and developer experience. Skill commands now show colored output with file paths, the TUI renders task details more completely, and table colors are unified across CLI and TUI.

New: Per-column duration visibility

Control which columns show the time-in-status indicator on TUI task cards. Configure it per-column in your config.yml:

statuses:
  - name: in-progress
    show_duration: true
  - name: done
    show_duration: false

New: Lipgloss-styled skill output

skill install, skill update, and skill check now render with color — green for success, dim gray for skipped, red for outdated. Makes it easy to scan results at a glance.

kanban-md skill install --agent claude
#   .claude/skills/kanban-md/SKILL.md (v0.28.0)        <- green
#   .claude/skills/kanban-based-development/SKILL.md — already at v0.28.0 (skipped)  <- dim
# Installed 1 skill(s).                                 <- green

New: Autonomy directive in kanban-based-development skill

The embedded kanban-based-development skill now includes an ## Autonomy section instructing agents to work through tasks without stopping for routine confirmations.

Changed: Skill update shows file paths and skipped skills

skill update now matches skill install output — shows relative file paths instead of agent/skill names, and explicitly lists skipped (up-to-date) skills instead of silently omitting them.

Changed: Unified table and TUI colors

CLI table output now uses the same color palette as the TUI board — status badges, priority labels, tags, and claims all render consistently.

Fixed: TUI detail view missing frontmatter fields

The task detail view now shows all frontmatter fields (class, estimate, due date, depends_on, parent) that were previously omitted.

Fixed: ASCII arrows in CLI output

Replaced Unicode → with ASCII -> in all user-facing CLI output for better terminal compatibility.

Changed: Config command expanded

kanban-md config set now covers the full config schema including tui.*, defaults.*, and claim_timeout.

Upgrading

go install github.com/antopolskiy/kanban-md/cmd/kanban-md@v0.28.0
kanban-md skill update

The new show_duration config field is added automatically via config migration. No manual action needed.
