istosandClaude Fable 5 29cbb11eb5 Bench 1: the task board extracted as its own distribution
Everything core from cicero-pas's .task-manager, with instance data
reduced to skeleton: empty stage directories, the task template, empty
local/ scaffolding, and a README covering install (clone into
.task-manager/, vendored on purpose) and update (update.sh replaces core
wholesale; local/ and tasks/ survive).

Bench

A live kanban for coding-agent work: task files in stage directories are the only source of truth; a stdlib-only board narrates everything that happens to them — agents working in git worktrees, PRs opening on review, CI and Copilot state on the cards, drives of the app from a task's own branch, and an archive that is never a delete.

Install into a repo

git clone <this repo> .task-manager && rm -rf .task-manager/.git
./.task-manager/start.sh        # wires the project (idempotent) and serves

Commit .task-manager/ into the host repo — core is vendored on purpose, so clones work offline and updates show up in the host's own diffs.

Update

# in manager/local/.env:  BENCH_SOURCE=<this repo's git url>
./.task-manager/update.sh              # latest
BENCH_REF=v1 ./.task-manager/update.sh # a specific release tag

Updates replace manager/core/ and the top-level scripts wholesale and touch nothing else — tasks, plans, reference, and everything under manager/local/ (your driver, commands, prompt overrides, settings, state) survive every update. Then python3 .task-manager/install.py and restart the board.

The three-layer law

Core knows about tasks, worktrees, PRs and events. It knows nothing about any particular app (drivers do: local/driver/start), agent vendor (adapters do: core/adapters/), or project (local/ does). Full docs in CLAUDE.md; the adapter contract in manager/core/adapters/README.md.
