What it does

When you ask for a kanban, task board, sprint board, or Trello-style layout, the agent follows this skill to produce one self-contained web page showing a board with columns, task cards, assignee avatars, labels, a filter bar, and a sprint progress sidebar. It works from a design system file if one exists. The result is a visual prototype you can view in a browser, not a working project management tool.

Great for

  • Designers who want a quick visual mockup of a task board before building one
  • Product or engineering teams sketching a sprint board layout for a stakeholder review
  • Students learning HTML and CSS layout by reading a generated example

Skip it if

  • Replacing a real project tool like Jira or Trello: the board has static cards, so dragging and saving do not persist data
  • Production apps that need real data or security, since the output is a visual template with no backend or access control

Try asking

  • “Make me a kanban board for a 5-person growth squad mid-sprint with backlog, doing, review, and done columns”
  • “Create a sprint board mockup with a sidebar showing sprint progress and blocked tickets”
  • “Design a task board in the style of our design system with assignee avatars and label filters”
