About zero kanban
One binary: desktop app, CLI, and MCP. Local-first, keyboard-driven, agent-ready.
What it is
zero kanban (zkb) is a single binary with a desktop app, CLI, and MCP server. Manage boards with keyboard shortcuts, from the terminal with zkb, or connect AI agents via MCP to create, move, search, and update cards directly.
Data lives in SQLite on your machine and is shared across app, CLI, and MCP. No cloud, no account, no forced sync.
Who it's for
Developers using Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Cursor, and other AI coding agents daily. Great for anyone who wants to keep control of their kanban from the UI, terminal, or directly from their agents.
Free and open source
zero kanban is free and open source. No subscription or required tiers. Download it from Download or check the code on GitHub.
