Four scenes (welcome, restore bootstrap, board group, card group) with system restoration disabled in favor of the registry's open-now flags: set when a window actually opens, cleared only on user close, so quit — and crash — leave exactly the restoration set behind. AppModel joins windows to sessions (shared store, registry record, card refs, held security scope); CloseFlushCoordinator pins 02's strict close order as a seam-injected machine (card sessions end, windows drain, store flushes, record stamps, teardown) with named slots where m6/m7 flushes land. HostedWindowController proxies — never replaces — SwiftUI's window delegate to intercept windowShouldClose for the flush, report frames, and place saved frames onto live screens. Card windows are (board path, case-folded card id) values: reopen focuses, and a snapshot-pure fate function dismisses on delete, tombstone, tombstoned lane, or cross-board move.

# Lanework
|
|
|
|
A native macOS kanban app whose boards are plain folders and Markdown files. Every board, lane, and card is a folder with an `index.md` (YAML frontmatter + Markdown body); the filesystem is the source of truth and the app is a live view over it.
|
|
|
|
The defining consequence: anything that can read and write files is a first-class user of a board — text editors, Finder, shell scripts, git, and above all AI agents. Lanework's job is to be the best *human* surface over that substrate.
|

## Key features
|
|
|
|
Lanework is in early development. This list tracks what has actually shipped and grows milestone by milestone; the full design lives in [DESIGN/](DESIGN/).
|
|
|
|
- **Storage contract, read side** — frontmatter engine with a byte-perfect round-trip guarantee (unknown keys, comments, and formatting survive every rewrite; duplicate keys read last-wins; wrong-type scalars coerce read-side), gapped fractional ordering (Ranks), and a fail-fast board loader with UUID-gated level detection, warning-collecting skips, and tombstone-aware snapshots — pinned by a golden fixture suite of 18 on-disk boards.
|
|
- **Storage contract, write side** — BoardWriter turns every mutation into an atomic temp-file+rename over exactly the files it touches: creates mint lowercase-UUIDv4 identities and `.kanban` packages; moves keep the UUID (with per-folder collision repair at the cross-board import boundary); copies mint fresh identities at every level; deletes are in-place tombstones with position-perfect restore and physical purge; attachment imports never overwrite and never refuse (Finder-style renames). Every app write stamps `modified`, clears `modified-by`, and preserves everything it didn't change byte-for-byte; readable-but-uneditable frontmatter shapes refuse loudly instead of corrupting.
|
|
- **Live store** — every open board is one shared, watched, in-memory snapshot: an FSEvents folder watcher (debounced, `.git`-filtered, origin-reconciling) drives whole-tree reloads with a generation guard and single-flight coalescing; write brackets suppress self-echo; a file-identity-keyed store registry refcounts stores and watchers across windows and absorbs root renames via bookmark re-resolution (a vanished root locks the board and watches for its return); plus the board registry (recents, bookmarks, cached counts), the banner center's single precedence order, the dirty-buffer guard, and transient UI state.
|
|
- **Window architecture** — the three window types and their lifecycle: a welcome window (branding, failed-open reporting), one board window per root (per-board frame memory, repositioned onto a live screen), and at-most-one card window per card (last-used size, cascaded; follows its card across lanes; dismisses on delete, tombstone, or cross-board move). Closing a board window or quitting runs one strict close flush — card sessions end, pending work drains, the registry is stamped — before the store tears down; launch restores the boards whose open-now flags survived quit (or crash), a preference gating only whether the flags are consulted.

## Development
|
|
|
|
The Xcode project is generated — `project.yml` is the source of truth, not the `.xcodeproj`:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
xcodegen generate
|
|
xcodebuild build -project Kanban.xcodeproj -scheme Kanban -destination 'platform=macOS'
|
|
xcodebuild test -project Kanban.xcodeproj -scheme Kanban -destination 'platform=macOS,arch=arm64'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
macOS 26+, Swift 6 (strict concurrency), SwiftUI, sandboxed. Internal codename `Kanban` (target, scheme, bundle id `dev.rzen.indie.Kanban`); the app ships under the display name **Lanework**.
