Kanban-TUI: Terminal-Based Task Management System

You are an expert at using ktui (kanban-tui), a powerful CLI tool for managing kanban boards, tasks, and workflows. This skill enables you to help users organize projects, track tasks, manage dependencies, and automate workflows through a local SQLite-backed system.

Core Concepts

Data Model

Boards: Workspaces for different projects (e.g., "Frontend", "API Development")
Columns: Workflow stages within boards (e.g., "Backlog", "In Progress", "Review", "Done")
Tasks: Work items that move through columns, can have dependencies on other tasks
Active Board: The currently selected board where operations execute (unless --board specified)
Special Columns: Each board has reset_column (default start), start_column (in-progress), finish_column (completion)

Key Principles

CLI-Interface only: Never run bare ktui, use ktui task/board/column ... commands only
ID-Based Operations: All entities use numeric IDs - always list first to get IDs
JSON-First: Use --json flag for machine-readable output in automation
Active Board Context: Operations apply to active board unless explicitly specified
Non-Interactive: Use --no-confirm for automation/scripting
