A non-destructive Kanban view for markdown projects, inside Obsidian. Reads bold-key metadata directly, lets you drag cards between status columns, and writes changes back without touching the rest of the file.
Works particularly well with SweetClaude-structured projects (the convention Kandyban was originally built against), but supports any markdown items that lead with a bold-key block: **Status:** open, **Priority:** next, **Milestone:** MS-001, etc.
Kandyban gives Claude Code users a board and a list view over their project’s issues (I-*) and milestones (MS-*). It reads SweetClaude’s native bold-key markdown directly, lets you drag cards between status columns, edit enums inline, search and filter, and writes changes back to the same files with annotations preserved byte-identical.
Kandyban does not (yet, I’m working on it) support creating new items or milestones, and SweetClaude in Claude Code remains the primary working interface, Kandyban is a visibility and ergonomics layer alongside it.
