Do you think you will keep it free or can you see a business model developing around it? If so, what do you think it would be? / How would you split paid tiers vs free users? Not a big deal to me...!! But I'm curious how one might commercialise these types of free/open source projects

I could see there being a long term free offering that doesn't cost us compute or tokens, and probably some other offerings that actually do use resources and would make sense to build a business around.

But that's not a today problem, we just want to absorb feedback and iterate until we build the ultimate tool for working with these coding agents.

fork, task claude to remove all github dependence, build.

Use a telemetry backed tool to remove telemetry from another telemetry backed tool?

I definitely don't feel like the models are reliable enough that I'd be more productive running them in parallel like this yet, but I can see a future where I want this. Their reliability probably varies a lot depending on what you are using them for - so maybe I'm just using them in more difficult (for claude) domains.

Yes I generally cherry pick the easier 50% of my backlog and work on those with Vibe Kanban, and the other 50% is still manual or happens with coding agent but with a human-in-the-loop.

This is a bet that coding agents will continue to get better, and this feels like the right time to try and figure out the interface.

This is interesting. I’m using Claude Code a fair bit and have found writing specs to be more effective than promoting and this feels closer to that. I can see the appeal of this for simple tasks now and maybe increasingly bigger tasks as models get better.

Very much a bet that things are going to get much much better very quickly

If you use gitlab, you can use the command line "glab" tool to have agents work from the built in kanban. They can open and close tasks, start MRs off of them etc. It's not as integrated as this tool, but works well with a mix of humans and robots.

Interesting, hadn't heard of that. Would better GitLab support be useful in Vibe Kanban?

That's fair feedback, I have a PR with a very clear opt-in here https://github.com/BloopAI/vibe-kanban/pull/146

I will leave this open for comments for the next hour and then merge.

That doesn’t change the naïvety of the response.

Nice, I vote for merging it :).

It really doesn't hurt to be honest about this and ask up-front. This is clear enough and benign enough that I'd actually be happy to opt-in.
