# Introduction

> Orchestrate multiple Claude agents from a visual command center

# Welcome to Claude Board

Claude Board is an open-source AI orchestration platform that turns your local machine into a multi-agent development squad. Define tasks with dependency graphs, execute them in parallel waves, and monitor everything through a real-time observability dashboard.

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Define tasks & dependencies" icon="plus">
    Create tasks on a visual Kanban board. Set dependencies with drag-and-drop, choose models (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku), and attach context snippets or file references.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Agents orchestrate in waves" icon="play">
    Tasks execute in dependency-aware waves. Wave 0 tasks run in parallel, Wave 1 starts when dependencies resolve. Each agent creates a branch, writes code, runs tests, and commits — all visible in the live terminal.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review & ship" icon="check">
    Review diffs, auto-test results, and token costs. Approve to auto-create PRs, or request changes — Claude iterates on your feedback with exponential backoff retry on failures.
  </Step>
</Steps>
