Kanbus (Rust crate)

Kanbus is a high-performance command-line interface and console server for the Kanbus issue tracker.

Install

cargo install kanbusr

This installs two binaries:

• kanbusr - The CLI for creating, listing, and managing issues
• kanbus-console - The web UI server with embedded frontend assets

Shortcuts (Optional)

For convenience, you can create short command shortcuts:

# Run the installer script
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AnthusAI/Kanbus/main/rust/install-aliases.sh | bash

# Or manually create symlinks in ~/.cargo/bin/:
cd ~/.cargo/bin
ln -s kanbusr kbs
ln -s kanbus-console kbsc

These shortcuts work in all shells and scripts.

Usage

CLI:

kanbusr --help          # or: kbs --help
kanbusr init
kanbusr create "Fix the login flow"
kanbusr list

Console Server:

kanbus-console         # or: kbsc
# Opens web UI at http://127.0.0.1:5174/

System-wide install (agent-friendly PATH)

Use the repo helper to install or symlink binaries into a system PATH like /usr/local/bin or /opt/homebrew/bin:

tools/install-system.sh

To avoid re-installing after every build, use symlinks:

tools/install-system.sh --mode symlink
