Autoboard

Agentic orchestrator for Claude Code. Breaks ambitious features into focused agent sessions, each with clean context and rigorous process gates. Independent sessions run in isolated git worktrees; Claude Code coordinates spawning, merging, and QA. Give an idea to Claude Code, go to sleep, wake up to a functioning, well-written app.

Installation

Add the marketplace and install:

/plugin marketplace add willietran/autoboard
/plugin install autoboard@thelittlebyte

Development

To work on autoboard itself, clone the repo and use the --plugin-dir flag:

alias claude="claude --plugin-dir /path/to/autoboard"

Workflow

1. Design

/autoboard:brainstorm

Interactive design session. Explores your codebase, asks clarifying questions, proposes approaches with trade-offs. Produces a design doc and quality standards config.

2. Plan

/autoboard:task-manifest

Generates a task manifest from the design doc — sessions with dependency graphs, TDD phases, complexity scores, and QA gates.

3. Build

/autoboard:run <project>

Launches the orchestrator. Spawns parallel session agents via claude -p in isolated git worktrees. Each session follows a mandatory workflow:

Explore → Plan → Plan Review → Implement → Verify → Code Review → Commit

The feature branch is ready for PR when done.

How It Works

• Session agents work in isolated git worktrees with dependency-aware scheduling
• Squash merges bring each session's work onto the feature branch
• Review gates ensure every plan and implementation gets independent review before proceeding
• QA gates run build validation and Playwright smoke tests between dependency layers
• Configurable quality standards let you tune which dimensions matter for your project
• GitHub Projects integration (optional) creates a kanban board with live status updates

See CLAUDE.md for full architecture details.

Autoboard builds on ideas and patterns from Obra:Superpowers by Jesse Vincent (MIT License) — a fantastic project for giving Claude Code structured skills. The following components were adapted from Superpowers:

• Brainstorm skill (skills/brainstorm/) — interactive design session workflow
• Receiving review skill (skills/receiving-review/) — critical thinking protocol for processing review feedback
• Code reviewer agent (agents/code-reviewer.md) — independent code review with quality checks
• Systematic debugging skill (skills/diagnose/) — root cause investigation methodology
