Version 2.0: Lanework's first release — a kanban app whose boards are ordinary folders of Markdown files on your Mac.

Edit a board from any other app, script, or AI agent and the open window updates live; outside edits are first-class, never overwritten.

Cards open in their own window with a formatted preview, a Markdown editor with checkable task lists, and a raw-source view.

Attach files to a card by dropping them onto its face or into its card window.

Drag cards and lanes to rearrange them, move or copy them between boards, or drop files from Finder to create new cards.

Cut, copy, and paste cards and lanes — within a board, across boards, or as plain text into other apps.

Deleted cards land in a trash lane you can show beside your lanes; drag a card out (or cut and paste it) to restore it.

Undo and redo cover every board action, including bringing back a deleted lane with all its cards.

Start new boards from ten bundled templates, or save any board as a template of your own.

Search filters the board as you type, and new cards you create clear the filter so they never vanish under it.

Style cards and lanes from a twelve-color palette, tint lanes with a band, and give each board its own background.

The whole app works from the keyboard — arrow-key navigation, drag-free card moves, and Full Keyboard Access on every control.

VoiceOver reads boards as lanes of cards, announces outside changes in one polite digest, and names a focused card that was deleted externally.

Every board gets a guide file teaching AI agents the folder format, kept up to date automatically.

Every card can carry a comment thread, shown beside or below the card's text in its window.

The comment composer keeps its draft inside the board itself, so a half-written comment is waiting whenever and wherever you reopen the card.

Comments render Markdown like the card body, take file drops of their own, and note when they've been edited.

Board search now matches comment text, and ⌘F in a card window steps through matches across the whole thread.

Deleting a comment takes effect immediately and stays undoable until the card's window closes.

Lanework Pro is an optional subscription in Settings; its first feature — git-backed board history — is included below, with remote sync still to come.

Pro adds git version history to any board from the board popover, with no git installation needed.

A board that's already a git repository opens with its history live automatically — cloning a shared board just works.

Every settled change on a git board becomes a history entry with a plain-language description, like *Move card 'Fix login' to Doing*.

Edits from agents and other apps are recorded under their own authorship, so a git board's history always says who changed what.

Undo and redo on git boards restore earlier states as new history entries — nothing is ever erased — and the undo trail survives relaunching the app.

Every card window on a git board gains a History section listing the changes that touched that card, newest first.

Switch or create branches from the board popover, with an explicit save-or-discard step protecting unsaved card edits.

The name and email on a board's history entries are editable in the board popover and stored in the board's own repository.
