Board, list, pipeline — your tasks, your sprints, directly linked to GitHub Issues.
Overview
Navique's project management tools aren't an afterthought. The Kanban board is a fully-featured local task database with drag-and-drop columns, rich task cards with checklists, comments, custom fields, effort tracking, and review status. Sprint planning with velocity tracking. GitHub issue promotion with one click. And because the task database is shared with the Eggspert engine, AI agents can read and write tasks — creating a closed loop where AI-generated work items land directly in your board.
Kanban Board — Three View Modes
A local Kanban board with Board (drag-and-drop columns), List (linear with full-row details), and Pipeline (flow visualisation) views. Six default columns: Backlog → To Do → In Progress → In Review → Blocked → Done. Fully configurable: rename, recolour, reorder, or hide columns.
Task Cards — Rich Metadata
Each Kanban card holds: title, description (markdown), effort score (1–5), priority, due date, assignees, tags, GitHub issue link, review status, checklist items, inline comments with timestamps, and custom key-value fields. Eight card display toggles control which metadata appears on the compact card face.
Promote Task to GitHub Issue
A single-button action on any Kanban card that creates a corresponding GitHub issue in the configured repository. The issue is pre-populated with the task title, description, labels derived from tags, and assignee mapping. The task is then linked back to the created issue number.
Checklist Items
Each task can have an arbitrary number of checklist items, each with a completion checkbox. The overall completion percentage is shown on the card face and updates live as items are checked.
Task Comments
Threaded comments on any task card with author, timestamp, and markdown body. Comments are added inline in the detail sheet and persist to the shared GRDB database — visible to all team members using the same Eggspert instance.
Custom Fields
Project-level custom fields can be defined — key-value pairs of any string data. Examples: 'customer name', 'contract value', 'affected version'. Custom fields are created in Project Manager Settings and appear in the task detail sheet for every task in that project.
Sprint Planner
A full sprint planning environment with four tabs: Active Sprint (goal, committed issues, story points, burn-down chart), Planning (backlog with drag-to-sprint, effort estimation, capacity calculation), Velocity Chart (historical trends with trend line), and Milestones (GitHub milestone tracking).
Project Manager Settings
A dedicated settings panel for project customisation: Kanban column editor, eight independent card display toggles, card defaults (priority, effort, assignee), and custom field CRUD. Settings are per-project.
Hidden Columns Toggle
Any Kanban column can be toggled to hidden state. Hidden columns still exist and tasks can still be moved to them, but the column is collapsed from the board view. Useful for keeping 'Done' and 'Won't Do' columns out of the daily view.
