In your AI coding agent

ntasker is **agent-agnostic**: every task can run on **Claude Code, OpenCode or Pi** (and the framework is extensible to more). It doubles as your agent's task memory -- the [skill + `/task` command](#ai-agent-integration) let the agent read and drive your tracker, no copy-paste:

  • "What should I work on next?" -- the agent grabs the open tasks for your current project folder and ranks them by urgency.
  • /task 34 -- pulls #34 into the session (title, description, tags), flips it to in progress, and warns you if you're sitting in the wrong project.
  • "Add a todo: ..." -- it files the task for you; drop a #34 anywhere later and it knows exactly which task you mean.
  • Finished an assigned task? The agent moves it to Review for you to sign off -- it never closes, deletes, or archives tasks on its own.

Run with an agent (web UI)

The flip side of the integration above: every task row has a **run** button -- showing that task's agent logo -- that opens a real interactive session -- the genuine TUI, embedded in the page via xterm.js -- running in the task's project directory and seeded with `/task `. You answer the agent's questions, approve its tool prompts and interrupt it exactly as in a terminal; it is the same CLI with the same `CLAUDE.md`, skills, MCP and permissions.

Each task picks its agent (or inherits the `default_agent` setting); the run button only appears when that agent's CLI resolves. Sessions run in the background (the button shows a spinner, and re-opening reattaches to the live session); marking a task **done** ends its session. Needs the agent's CLI on `PATH` (or a configured path) and a PO
