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.
