Board & Cards

Board & Cards

The board is the heart of Stellary. Organize your tasks across seven powerful views and modes, track progress with detailed cards, and stay in control of every aspect of your projects.

Create a Project

From Home (Iris chat), ask to create a project or click “New project”. Give it a name — that’s all it takes.

Stellary automatically creates a board with default columns that you can customize. Every card in the project receives an auto-incremented prefix (e.g., PROJ-1, PROJ-2) so you can reference tasks quickly.

Scopes & Views

Each project can contain multiple scopes — think of them as work packages or phases. Every scope has its own set of columns and its own views, so you can break down large projects into manageable sections without losing the big picture.

Stellary provides seven views and work modes, and you can switch between them at any time:

Kanban

Drag-and-drop columns for visual workflow management.

List

Sortable rows with grouping, bulk actions, and inline editing.

Calendar

Monthly grid showing cards by due date.

Pipeline

Execution view for tracking project workflows and related runs.

Roadmap

Timeline with phases generated by the AI wizard.

Mindmap

Hierarchical graph of cards, sub-cards, and relations within a scope.

Stats

Metrics dashboard with distribution charts and completion trends.

Kanban View

The classic board layout. Cards are displayed in columns that represent your workflow stages. Drag a card from one column to another to update its status — the move is instant (optimistic UI) with no need to wait for the server.

You can also reorder cards within a column and rearrange columns between each other.

List View

A tabular view with sortable columns for title, priority, assignee, dates, and more. The list view is ideal when you need to scan many tasks at once.

  • Grouping — group cards by column, priority, assignee, or label for a structured overview
  • Bulk actions — select multiple cards and update them in one go
  • Inline editing — change a field directly in the table row without opening the card detail panel

A monthly grid that displays cards by their due date. Navigate between months and click on a card to edit it. Cards without a due date do not appear in this view.

Pipeline View

The Pipeline view connects the project to execution workflows. Use it to inspect available pipelines, related runs, and the steps that turn a card or scope into automated work.

Use it when you need to check the operational state of a workflow, not just organize cards.

Roadmap View

A timeline view that visualizes your project phases on a horizontal axis. Phases can be generated automatically using the AI wizard, which analyzes your project context and suggests a structured plan with milestones and dates.

Use the roadmap to communicate high-level progress to stakeholders or to plan long-term work.

Stats View

A metrics dashboard for your project. The stats view shows distribution of cards across columns, priorities, and assignees, along with completion trends over time.

Use it to identify bottlenecks, track velocity, and get a data-driven picture of your project health.

Columns

Columns represent the stages of your workflow. You can:

  • Add a column by clicking the “+” on the right side of the board
  • Rename a column by clicking on its title
  • Change icon & color to visually distinguish each stage
  • Reorder columns via drag and drop
  • Delete a column (cards it contains will be deleted)

Cards (Tasks)

Each card represents a task. To create one, click “+ Add a card” at the bottom of a column, enter a title, and press Enter. Every card is automatically assigned a unique prefix based on your project (e.g., PROJ-42).

Cards have a status that reflects their lifecycle: open, in progress, done, or cancelled. Click a card to open Activity: missions, comments, and questions. Overview and Structure stay in the panel.

A card opens on Activity. The pencil opens Overview for fields. Here is what you can fill in:

Priority

Four levels: None, Low, Medium, and High. The priority badge is visible directly on the card.

Start & Due Dates

Set a start date and a due date. Overdue cards are flagged automatically so nothing slips through.

Assignee

Assign a team member. Their avatar appears on the card for instant visibility.

Labels

Tag cards with colored labels for quick categorization. Labels are defined at the project level.

Custom Fields

Define project-level custom fields: text, number, select, or date. They appear in the card detail panel.

Description

Rich Markdown description for detailed specifications, notes, or acceptance criteria.

Subtasks & Checklists

Break work down further with two complementary tools:

  • Checklists — add items, check or uncheck them, and track completion. A progress percentage is displayed directly on the card so you can see status at a glance.
  • Subtasks — create child cards that appear nested under the parent card. Each subtask is a full card with its own priority, assignee, dates, and all other fields.

Use checklists for quick to-do items and subtasks when the work needs its own tracking and detail.

Card Relations

Link cards together to express dependencies and relationships. Stellary supports four relation types:

Blocks / Blocked byMark dependencies between cards so your team knows what to unblock first.
Related toLink cards that share context without implying a dependency.
DuplicatesFlag duplicate cards to avoid redundant work.
Parent ofEstablish a hierarchy — the parent card groups related child cards.

Comments & Attachments

Collaborate directly on cards:

  • Comments — discuss on any card. Each comment displays the author and timestamp. Only the comment author can delete their own comments. Comments are paginated for performance on busy cards.
  • Attachments — upload files up to 10 MB each. Download, preview, or delete attachments from the card detail panel.

Activity

Activity is the tab a card opens on. Missions, comments, questions, and changes (column, status, assignee, attachments) live in one feed.

If a mission is blocked, the attention request appears in that feed. No need to guess who changed what, or where to answer the agent.

5 / 5 cards

Use the filter bar at the top of the board to narrow down your cards:

  • Text search — search by title or description
  • Column filter — select one or more columns to display
  • Label filter — multi-select labels to find tagged cards

Filters combine and apply in real time across all views.

Import & Export

  • Export — download a complete JSON snapshot of your project (columns, cards, metadata)
  • Import — create a new project from a JSON file with columns and cards
  • Duplicate — clone a project structure (columns only, without cards)
