Why Agent Board?

Running multiple AI agents without coordination is chaos. Each agent works in isolation, tasks get duplicated, failures go unnoticed, and there's no way to build multi-step workflows.

Agent Board fixes this. It's a task management system purpose-built for AI agent teams — whether you're running OpenClaw agents, Claude, or any LLM-based agents.

  • Agents pick up work from the board via heartbeat polling or webhook notifications
  • Dependencies are enforced — Agent B can't start until Agent A finishes
  • Failed tasks auto-retry — no human intervention for transient failures
  • Task chaining builds pipelines — when one agent finishes, the next one starts automatically
  • Full audit trail — know exactly who did what, when, and why
  • MCP native — agents interact thro

6 read · 6 write · 2 destructive. Blast radius: 2 tools can delete or overwrite — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling this one.

Questions

What is the Agent Board MCP server?

Open-source multi-agent task board for OpenClaw. Kanban + DAG dependencies + MCP server + auto-retry + audit trail. Built for autonomous AI agent teams.

What tools does Agent Board expose?

14 in total: 6 read-only, 6 that write, and 2 that can delete or overwrite (board_delete_project, board_delete_task). Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is Agent Board safe to connect to an agent?

The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B. Separately from the audit: 2 of its tools can destroy data, so scope the token you give it to what you actually need.

What credentials does Agent Board need?

It reads AGENTBOARD_API_KEYS, AGENTBOARD_WEBHOOK_SECRET and OPENCLAW_HOOK_TOKEN from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does Agent Board run?

It speaks stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as agent-board at 0.1.0.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (0e40f1de6344), read on 2026-10-08. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
