BatonBot: Open Source Local Kanban Workflow for AI Coding Agents

The author introduces BatonBot, an open-source local-first application designed to streamline AI coding workflows by reducing the need for constant user supervision. The tool addresses the inefficiency of sequential agent interactions by allowing users to set up tasks and track progress visually on a Kanban-style board.

• Supports integration with tools such as Aider, Cline, Roo, Codex CLI, Claude Code, and local LLMs.
• Enables batch processing of coding tasks to minimize manual intervention between steps.
• Provides visual tracking for task status, including finished, failed, or pending review states.
• Hosted on GitHub under the repository mdoty4/batonbot with a dedicated website at batonbot.io.
