Skyboard CLI (sb)
Skyboard is a collaborative kanban board built on the AT Protocol. The sb CLI lets you manage boards, columns, and cards from the terminal.
Prerequisites
sb is installed globally (npm i -g skyboard-cli)
- User is logged in (
sb login <handle>)
- A default board is set (
sb use <board>) or --board is passed on each command
Key Concepts
- Boards — kanban boards with named columns. Referenced by name, rkey, AT URI, or web URL. All board-scoped commands accept
--board <ref> to target a specific board without relying on sb use.
- Board ref formats —
--board accepts: AT URI (at://did:plc:xxx/dev.skyboard.board/rkey), DID:rkey pair (did:plc:xxx:rkey), or a board name substring.
- Columns — matched by exact name (case-insensitive), name prefix, substring, or 1-based index from
sb cols.
- Cards — tasks on the board. Referenced by TID rkey prefix (minimum 4 characters, like git short hashes). Use
sb cards to see short refs.
- Short refs — first 7 characters of a card's rkey, displayed by
sb cards and sb show. Provide at least 4 characters to identify a card.
Workflow
- Check auth:
sb whoami --json
- List boards:
sb boards --json
- Set default board:
sb use <board> (or pass --board <ref> on each command)
- View columns:
sb cols --json
- List cards:
sb cards --json
- Create/edit/move/comment/delete cards as needed
Important Rules
- Always use
--json on commands that support it so you get structured output. Present results as human-friendly summaries.
- Commands supporting
--json: whoami, status, boards, cols, cards, new, show, mv, edit, comment, rm
- Commands without
--json: login, logout, use, add
- Use
--board when operating on a specific board in automated/scripted contexts (e.g., ralph mode) to avoid conflicts with the global default. All board-scoped commands (cols, cards, new, show, mv, edit, comment, rm) support --board <ref>.
- For
sb rm, always pass --force to skip the interactive prompt, but ask the user for confirmation first in conversation.
- If a command needs a board and none is set, run
sb boards --json to show options and ask the user which to use.
- If a card ref is ambiguous, the CLI will list candidates — present them to the user and ask which one.
