Frequently asked questions
Can I create and move cards across board columns?
Yes. Create cards in any column, move them across workflow stages, update details and assignees, and archive completed work.
How does KanbanZone authentication work?
KanbanZone uses HTTP Basic Auth with the API Token against integrations.kanbanzone.io/v1. This differs from the standard Bearer token pattern.
Can I organize work using swimlanes?
Yes. Browse and manage swimlanes to categorize cards by project, team, or priority within each board.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add --transport http "" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
