ov-kanban
Work through tasks on a kanban board stored in OpenViking (viking://agent/kanban/<board>/, one markdown file per task). Use when the user says "ov kanban", "kanban", "看板", asks to put a task on the board, hand off the current work, continue a task another agent started, or run an unattended task loop. A board holds many tasks; each task file is the handoff itself - a frontmatter header (id, status, owner, board) plus Goal, Context, Decisions, Progress, Next, Questions, Log - and its process detail is folded into an archive file instead of being summarized away, so any agent with the `ov` CLI can resume it and drill down when needed.

What does the ov-kanban skill do?
Work through tasks on a kanban board stored in OpenViking (viking://agent/kanban/<board>/, one markdown file per task). Use when the user says "ov kanban", "kanban", "看板", asks to put a task on the board, hand off the current work, continue a task another agent started, or run an unattended task loop. A board holds many tasks; each task file is the handoff itself - a frontmatter header (id, status, owner, board) plus Goal, Context, Decisions, Progress, Next, Questions, Log - and its process detail is folded into an archive file instead of being summarized away, so any agent with the `ov` CLI can resume it and drill down when needed. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the ov-kanban skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install openviking-ov-kanban` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/openviking-ov-kanban/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does ov-kanban work with?
ov-kanban runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the ov-kanban skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use ov-kanban after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/openviking-ov-kanban` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the ov-kanban skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
