# Kanban mode

Drag-and-drop status board for applied controls, with swimlanes per domain

**Kanban mode** lays out the applied controls as a status board — one column per status, one row (swimlane) per domain. It's the view to reach for when you're driving execution: moving controls forward visually and spotting which domain is sitting on the most "in progress" work.

## Where to find it

Open the controls table (`/applied-controls`) and click the **table-columns icon** in the toolbar, next to the flash-mode and analytics buttons. The active table filters are carried over.

Kanban mode is currently only available for applied controls.

## Layout

* **Columns** — one per status: `--` (unset), To do, In progress, On hold, Active, Degraded, Deprecated. The column header shows a running count of controls in that status across all swimlanes.
* **Swimlanes** — one per domain. Each swimlane can be collapsed or expanded; the swimlane header shows the per-domain count.
* **Cards** — one per control. Each card shows name, priority badge (P1–P4 with colour), owner initials, and ETA (highlighted red when overdue, except for `active` or `deprecated` controls which are never flagged overdue).
* **Compact mode** — a toggle in the page header reduces card detail to fit more controls on screen.

## Moving cards

Drag a card to a different **status column** to update its status — the change is saved immediately. Drag a card to a different **swimlane** to reassign its domain.

## Other view modes for applied controls

* [**Applied controls analytics**](/ciso-assistant/features/applied-controls-analytics.md) — chart-pie dashboard with counts, cost, ETA buckets, and top owners.
* [**Flash mode**](/ciso-assistant/features/flash-mode.md) — flashcards for rapid posture establishment.

All three share the same filter passthrough from the table.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://intuitem.gitbook.io/ciso-assistant/features/kanban-mode.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
