Run Kanban

/run-kanban

Executes a TASK-PLAN.md directly — no subagents, minimal overhead, maximum speed. Reads each card's checklist and implements it step by step in the current conversation.

Trigger

User runs /run-kanban [task-name].

Flow

Step 1: Read the plan

Read developer/tasks/$ARGUMENTS/TASK-PLAN.md fully. If not found, halt: "TASK-PLAN.md not found. Run /kanban-task-planner first."

Also read CLAUDE.md for project conventions.

Identify the execution groups from the Execution Groups section.

Step 2: Execute Group 1

For each card in Group 1 (all parallel-safe, no dependencies):

1. Update the card's Status in the Cards Summary table: [ ] → [-]
2. Read the card's full content (Description, Scope, Acceptance Criteria, Checklist)
3. Execute each checklist item in order:
   • Write, Edit, or create files as needed
   • Run CLI commands listed in the checklist
   • Verify each item before moving to the next
4. After all checklist items are done, verify the Acceptance Criteria:
   • For each criterion, confirm it is satisfied
   • If a criterion fails, fix before continuing
5. Update status: [-] → [x] and note completion in the plan

Since Group 1 cards are independent, execute them in the most efficient order (Schema and Types first as they are the most foundational).

Step 3: Execute remaining groups

After each group completes, identify the next group (cards whose dependencies are all [x]).

Repeat Step 2 for each group, in order.

Never start a card whose dependencies are not yet [x].

Step 4: Final verification

After all cards are [x]:

Run the project's type-check if applicable (check CLAUDE.md or package.json):

pnpm type-check   # or
npm run type-check  # or
npx tsc --noEmit

If type-check fails, fix the errors before reporting complete.

Step 5: Report

/run-kanban COMPLETE: developer/tasks/[name]/TASK-PLAN.md

Cards executed: N/N
  ✅ CARD-001: [title]
  ✅ CARD-002: [title]
  ...

Type check: PASSED (or N/A)

Rules

1. Never skip a checklist item — each item exists for a reason
2. Read before writing — always read existing files before editing them
3. Verify criteria — confirm each Acceptance Criterion is met before marking [x]
4. Respect groups — never start Group N+1 before Group N is fully [x]
5. Fix type errors — do not leave type-check failures unresolved

Success Criteria

• All cards in TASK-PLAN.md marked [x]
• All Acceptance Criteria verified for every card
• Type-check passes with 0 errors (if applicable)
• No [!] cards remaining
