BothyBoard

A bothy for humans and agents: a shared task board, DAG of work, and MCP server so coding agents can pick up, park, and hand off work.

Live: bothyboard.com · MIT · pnpm + Turborepo (apps/web consumes packages/*).

For agents

MCP

POST /api/mcp (GET lists tools, no auth)

Skill

/skills/bothy-board/SKILL.md.grok/skills/bothy-board/SKILL.md

Client snippet

/mcp.json

tasks.next only returns Planted + ready. Title-only cards never dequeue. Workers cannot land themselves. PATs are project-scoped (bb_pat_…).

mkdir -p .grok/skills/bothy-board
curl -fsSL https://bothyboard.com/skills/bothy-board/SKILL.md \
  -o .grok/skills/bothy-board/SKILL.md

Layout

apps/web          # TanStack Start app
packages/core     # Domain: tasks, MCP, rate limits, trash
packages/db       # Dual Neon / PGLite client
packages/ui       # Shared UI primitives
packages/typescript-config

MCP tools are bothy-board_* (Grok-safe: ^[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_-]{0,63}$). Dotted names (bothy-board.tasks.next) still work as aliases. Keys are bb_live_ / bb_pat_.
