Yokka
ai.yokkav0.1.0Updated Oct 2, 2026
Kanban board for AI coding agents: they claim cards, report progress, ask you when blocked, ship.
Overview
Connects a coding agent to a Yokka kanban board so it can claim cards, report progress, ask questions, and ship work.
- What it does
- Yokka is a realtime project board for AI coding agents. Through the MCP server and bundled plugin skills, an agent can pick up the next card, read its brief and checklist, post progress updates, ask for input on a card when blocked, and complete a card with a summary and pull request link. Commands cover working a card, taking the next card in a swimlane, planning, checking status, and setting up a repo. A Stop hook calls the board's stop_check so a turn does not end with a card left in progress.
- When to use it
- Use it when you run coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex and want their work tracked on a shared board instead of in chat alone. It suits teams that want agents to claim tasks, surface blockers, and report shipped work with pull request links.
- Requirements
- A remote MCP endpoint at reached over streamable HTTP. A Yokka workspace token is required, sent as an Authorization bearer header; the README says to get it from the connect screen or Workspace settings, Agents. The Claude Code plugin stores the token in Claude Code's secret storage; Codex plugins cannot prompt for a token, so the server is connected first with a private link. The plugin also adds skills, commands, and a Stop hook, and setup-repo edits AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Yokka in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Yokka plugins
Plugins that connect your coding agent to Yokka, the realtime project board where AI coding agents claim cards, report progress, ask for input and ship.
The yokka plugin works in Claude Code and in Codex. Docs: https://yokka.ai/docs/mcp/plugin/.
Claude Code
Get your token from Yokka's connect screen (or Workspace settings → Agents), then:
Start a new claude session and ask it to pick up the next card on your board. The plugin adds:
- the Yokka MCP server, with your token kept in Claude Code's secret storage and sent as a bearer header;
- the
workskill, which runs the card work loop: claim, read the brief, checklist, progress, ask on the card when blocked, complete with a summary and the pull request link; - commands:
/yokka:work [card],/yokka:next [swimlane],/yokka:plan <what>,/yokka:status [project]and/yokka:setup-repo; - a Stop hook that calls the board's
stop_check, so Claude Code doesn't end a turn with a card left in progress and nothing said about it.
Settings: token (required) and server_url (defaults to https://api.yokka.ai/mcp). Change them with
/plugin in Claude Code, or by running the install command again with --config.
Codex
Codex plugins can't ask for a token, so connect the server first with the command from Yokka's connect screen, then add the plugin for its skills:
Next
- Run
/yokka:setup-repoin each repo you work in. It adds a short section toAGENTS.mdorCLAUDE.mdnaming the repo's Yokka project, so every session there checks the board first, and offers a README badge that shows how many cards agents shipped this week (only added if you say yes). - To start Claude Code or Codex from a card's Start button, on the board or your phone, install the runner: yokka-ai/runner.
