* Perfect! The preview tab implementation is complete and all type checks pass. Let me provide a summary of what was implemented: 1. **Updated `TabType`** - Added 'preview' to the union type 2. **Created `useDevserverPreview` hook** - Intelligent devserver URL detection with: - Real-time log parsing using the regex `(?:localhost|127\.0\.0\.1|0\.0\.0\.0):(\d+)[^\d]*` - Three states: idle/searching/ready - URL normalization (0.0.0.0 → localhost) - Process monitoring for setup scripts and dev servers 3. **Built `PreviewTab` component** - Full-featured iframe preview with: - Proper sandbox settings for security - Toolbar with refresh, copy URL, and open external buttons - Smart error handling for mixed content/CORS issues - Clear empty states and loading indicators 4. **Enhanced `TabNavigation`** - Conditionally shows preview tab with: - Monitor icon and spinner when searching - Only appears when devserver is detected or likely 5. **Integrated in `TaskDetailsPanel`** - Wires everything together in fullscreen mode - **Smart Detection**: Parses logs in real-time to find devserver URLs - **Robust Error Handling**: Graceful fallbacks for iframe loading issues - **Security**: Proper iframe sandboxing with necessary permissions - **Performance**: Efficient log processing with deduplication - **UX**: Clear states (searching/ready/error) with helpful messaging The implementation follows the Oracle's architectural recommendations with proper separation of concerns and real-time detection capabilities. * Cleanup script changes for task attempt 4f59c374-1cc5-4b3c-a79a-5f63756a366b * Perfect! Now the preview tab will use the **first** dev server URL it detects rather than being overwritten by subsequent matches. This means: - If both backend (e.g., `:3001`) and frontend (e.g., `:5173`) servers start - The preview tab will show whichever URL appears first in the logs - Subsequent URLs will be ignored to avoid switching the preview unexpectedly This provides a more stable preview experience when multiple dev servers are running. * Cleanup script changes for task attempt 4f59c374-1cc5-4b3c-a79a-5f63756a366b * add parent lib * fmt * Listen for communication from the preview tab (vibe-kanban ace46045) In frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskDetails/PreviewTab.tsx We should expect that the iframe will communicate via frontend/src/utils/previewBridge.ts When a message is received, we should add some details about the clicked element to the follow up textarea * Component to view clicked element (vibe-kanban e3b90cc1) frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskDetails/PreviewTab.tsx frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskFollowUpSection.tsx When a user clicks on an element, we should display a box in the follow up section similar to how we show reviews or conflicts. The section should display a summary of each of the elements, the name of the component and the file location. When the user sends a follow up, a markdown equivalent of the summary should be appended to the top of the follow up message. * Component to view clicked element (vibe-kanban e3b90cc1) frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskDetails/PreviewTab.tsx frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskFollowUpSection.tsx When a user clicks on an element, we should display a box in the follow up section similar to how we show reviews or conflicts.

Overview
AI coding agents are increasingly writing the world's code and human engineers now spend the majority of their time planning, reviewing, and orchestrating tasks. Vibe Kanban streamlines this process, enabling you to:
- Easily switch between different coding agents
- Orchestrate the execution of multiple coding agents in parallel or in sequence
- Quickly review work and start dev servers
- Track the status of tasks that your coding agents are working on
- Centralise configuration of coding agent MCP configs
You can watch a video overview here.
Installation
Make sure you have authenticated with your favourite coding agent. A full list of supported coding agents can be found in the docs. Then in your terminal run:
npx vibe-kanban
Documentation
Please head to the website for the latest documentation and user guides.
Support
Please open an issue on this repo if you find any bugs or have any feature requests.
Contributing
We would prefer that ideas and changes are raised with the core team via GitHub issues, where we can discuss implementation details and alignment with the existing roadmap. Please do not open PRs without first discussing your proposal with the team.
Development
Prerequisites
Additional development tools:
cargo install cargo-watch
cargo install sqlx-cli
Install dependencies:
pnpm i
Running the dev server
pnpm run dev
This will start the backend. A blank DB will be copied from the dev_assets_seed folder.
Building the frontend
To build just the frontend:
cd frontend
pnpm build
Build from source
- Run
build-npm-package.sh - In the
npx-clifolder runnpm pack - You can run your build with
npx [GENERATED FILE].tgz
Environment Variables
The following environment variables can be configured at build time or runtime:
| Variable | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
GITHUB_CLIENT_ID |
Build-time | Ov23li9bxz3kKfPOIsGm |
GitHub OAuth app client ID for authentication |
POSTHOG_API_KEY |
Build-time | Empty | PostHog analytics API key (disables analytics if empty) |
POSTHOG_API_ENDPOINT |
Build-time | Empty | PostHog analytics endpoint (disables analytics if empty) |
BACKEND_PORT |
Runtime | 0 (auto-assign) |
Backend server port |
FRONTEND_PORT |
Runtime | 3000 |
Frontend development server port |
HOST |
Runtime | 127.0.0.1 |
Backend server host |
DISABLE_WORKTREE_ORPHAN_CLEANUP |
Runtime | Not set | Disable git worktree cleanup (for debugging) |
Build-time variables must be set when running pnpm run build. Runtime variables are read when the application starts.
Custom GitHub OAuth App (Optional)
By default, Vibe Kanban uses Bloop AI's GitHub OAuth app for authentication. To use your own GitHub app for self-hosting or custom branding:
- Create a GitHub OAuth App at GitHub Developer Settings
- Enable "Device Flow" in the app settings
- Set scopes to include
user:email,repo - Build with your client ID:
GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id_here pnpm run build
