Kandev: An Open-Source AI Kanban and Development Environment for Agent Orchestration

Kandev is an open-source project that functions as an AI Kanban and development environment. It enables developers to manage and run tasks in parallel, orchestrate multiple AI agents, review code changes, and streamline the process of opening pull requests. The platform is designed to be multi-provider compatible, supporting agents like Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, and others. A key feature is its self-hostable architecture, ensuring no telemetry and giving users full control over their data and environment.

The environment offers an integrated workspace that includes a built-in terminal, a code editor with Language Server Protocol (LSP) support, a Git changes panel, and embedded chat functionalities. It supports Kanban-style task management with drag-and-drop boards and workflow automation. Kandev also facilitates agentic workflows through multi-step pipelines, allowing different agents to be used for specific stages, such as planning, implementation, and review. It supports sub-tasks, workspace isolation using Git worktrees, and multi-repository tasks. Agents can be run as local processes, in Docker containers, or via remote executors. The platform also includes session management for resuming agent conversations and tracks productivity statistics.
