Use cases for Vibe Kanban

Vibe Kanban helps you run AI coding agents in parallel for feature development, refactoring, bug fixes, and team workflows. Here are common ways developers and teams use it.

Feature development

Break a large feature into smaller tasks and run them in parallel. Each task gets its own workspace and agent, so UI, API, and tests can progress at the same time.

Create tasks for frontend, backend, and tests.
Assign different agents (e.g. Claude Code for logic, Cursor for UI) or the same agent.
Review and merge changes as tasks complete.

Refactoring at scale

Refactor different parts of the codebase in parallel. Agents work in isolated git worktrees, so they don't conflict.

Split refactors by module or directory.
Use agents that excel at code understanding (e.g. Claude Code).
Review and merge incrementally to keep history clean.

Bug fixes and maintenance

Queue multiple bugs or small tasks and let agents work through them in parallel.

Create one task per bug with clear description and steps.
Run agents in parallel; review and merge when ready.
Use task templates for common bug types.

For teams

Teams use Vibe Kanban to standardize how AI agents are used: same workflow, same review process, and the ability to run multiple agents in parallel without stepping on each other.

Shared task templates and workflows.
Built-in code review before merge.
Git worktrees keep main branch clean until merge.
