Kanban

Kanban is Routa's workflow-driven execution mode.

What Kanban Is For

Choose Kanban when you want:

  • explicit stages such as backlog, todo, dev, review, and done
  • visible delivery flow instead of one freeform execution thread
  • automation triggered by card movement and lane policy

How It Works

Kanban is not just a board view. In Routa, lane transitions can create sessions, route work to specialists, and enforce delivery checks for stages like review and done.

Best Fit

Kanban works best when:

  • work needs a stable handoff process
  • you want review and done to act as real gates
  • multiple tasks should move through the same delivery model

What Makes It Different

The orchestration boundary in Kanban is the card and its lane state, not one conversation. That lets Routa apply policy, queueing, and stage-specific specialist behavior at the workflow layer.
