Cockpit Board

A Kanban board for Obsidian, driven by the frontmatter of your notes. Drag a card and the file changes. Calendars, timers, recurring tasks and a checklist editor included.

In Obsidian: Settings › Community plugins › Browse, search for "Cockpit Board", then Install and Enable.

Features

Kanban from frontmatter

Cards sort into columns by rules you set (status:, date:, label:, no date). Drag and drop updates the file at once; Ctrl+Click selects several.

Calendar views

Week, month and year, with a time grid, all-day cards and a year heatmap.

Timers

Start and stop a timer on a card; the time lands in time_spent.

Recurring tasks

Cron-style rules create tasks by themselves each day.

Reminders

Due-soon notifications on the desktop, and opt-in phone push through ntfy even with Obsidian closed. Tapping one opens the card.

Start an agent on a card

Opt-in, on desktop: start Claude Code, Codex or another coding agent with the card as its task, here or on a remote machine.

Checklists

A drag-and-drop checklist editor, and Split & Close to turn a half-done checklist into a done card and a follow-up.

Focus and privacy

Focus mode shows only Today and In Progress (press F). Privacy mode blurs titles for screen sharing.

Phone friendly

Columns become tabs you swipe between, plus a deep link and quick-add for the home screen.

Goes well with

Cockpit Companion puts your board's week in the Omarchy bar, and the Yoke launcher can quick-add a card from the phone's home screen.
