Board Badger BB/JOB/01

Your client can see where the job is without asking you.

Board Badger keeps one board for each client project. You drive yours from an agent while you are still in the work. The client opens a link of their own, watches it move, and ticks off the parts that were theirs.

Shared with
Sarah, who can tick tasks off, and Tom, who reads and comments

The same board, from their side.

Sarah at Example Distillery has no account, no licence and no password to lose. She gets one email, and her name goes on anything she does.

from board@boardbadger.com Ellis Gray has shared a board with you: Example Distillery

Ellis is keeping this project on Board Badger, and has put you on it. You need no account and no password. Two of the tasks on it are yours.

You, 3 September

Photography is all in the shared folder now. Shout if you need different crops for the wider screens.

Ellis, 3 September

Got them, thanks. Comments sit on the task, so the question and the work stay in the same place instead of in somebody's inbox.

Run the board by saying so.

Board Badger is an MCP server before it is a website. Adding a task, inviting somebody and telling them it is ready is one sentence, said while you are still in the work. Every signed-in screen carries a line that takes the same sentence.

Nine tools: boards, add_board, tasks, add_task, add_tasks, complete_task, move_task, comment and invite. Sharing is per board, so work you never shared has nothing on it for an agent to hand over.

>add an accessibility pass to the distillery board and tell sarah the copy sign off is in
add_task(board: "distillery", title: "Accessibility pass and fixes")
comment(task: "sign off the copy", body: "That is in, thanks Sarah.")
On, and the comment is on the task. The distillery is 4 of 8 done. Sarah ticked the copy sign off herself on 2 September, so I have left that one alone.
>put tom at the distillery on it as well, read only
invite(board: "distillery", email: "tom@example.com", name: "Tom Reeve", role: "reader")
Invited. Tom gets a link of his own, so anything he does carries his name and not Sarah's. A reader can comment and cannot tick anything off.

What it costs.

Nothing, while Board Badger is in early access. There is no billing in the product, so there is nothing to cancel and no card to take.

There is no billing in Board Badger and no plan on an account, so nothing here takes a payment card and there is no trial to run out. A row marked planned is not built yet. Existing boards will get notice before anything is ever charged for.

Open your first board.

One address and one password. The people you share a board with never need either.
