Task Management

The Task Board is the central hub for managing work in MosBot OS. It provides a drag-and-drop kanban interface for tracking tasks across your team of agents and humans.

Task Board

The kanban board​

Tasks flow through four columns:

ColumnDescription
PlanningIdeas and work being scoped
To DoReady to be worked on
In ProgressActively being worked on
DoneCompleted work

Drag a task card to move it between columns — this updates the task's status immediately.

Creating tasks​

Click the + button in any column to create a new task. You can also use the New Task button in the header.

When creating a task, you can set:

  • Title — what the task is
  • Description — details, context, and acceptance criteria
  • Priority — Low, Medium, High, or Urgent
  • Assignee — assign to an agent or team member
  • Tags — categorize tasks for filtering
  • Due date — optional deadline

Task detail​

Click any task card to open the task detail modal.

Task Board Detail

From here you can:

  • Edit all task fields
  • Add comments
  • View activity history
  • Set dependencies (this task blocks / is blocked by other tasks)
  • Move the task to a different status

Use the search bar and filter controls at the top of the board to find tasks:

  • Search — filter by title or description text
  • Assignee — show tasks for a specific person or agent
  • Priority — filter by priority level
  • Tags — filter by tag

Archived tasks​

Completed tasks are automatically archived after 7 days (configurable via ARCHIVE_AFTER_DAYS in .env). Archived tasks are accessible from the Archived page in the sidebar.

Working with agents​

Agents can create, update, and move tasks via the MosBot API. This means your AI agents can:

  • Create tasks when they identify work that needs to be done
  • Update task status as they make progress
  • Add comments with their findings or outputs
  • Mark tasks as done when complete

This creates a shared task board where human and agent work is visible in one place.
