Tutorial: Managing Tasks with Tickets
Beginner — 10 minutes
Learn how to use AgentsMesh's ticket system to organize work, track progress on a Kanban board, and connect tickets to AgentPods for automatic context injection.
Navigate to the Ticket Board
Click Tickets in the left sidebar. You will see a Kanban board with columns for each status: Backlog, To Do, In Progress, In Review, and Done.
Create a Ticket
Click the + button at the top of any column (typically Backlog or To Do) to create a new ticket.
Fill in the ticket details:
- Title — A clear, concise description of the task (e.g., "Fix pagination bug on users list")
- Description — Detailed requirements, acceptance criteria, or context in Markdown
- Priority — Set the urgency: Urgent, High, Medium, Low, or None
- Story Points — Estimate the effort using Fibonacci numbers (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21)
- Assignee — Optionally assign the ticket to a team member
Bind a Ticket to a Pod
The real power of tickets is their integration with AgentPods. When you create a new Pod:
- In the New Pod dialog, select your ticket from the Ticket dropdown
- The ticket's title and description are automatically injected as context for the AI agent
- The ticket status automatically moves to In Progress when the Pod starts
Track Progress
As your AI agent works on the task, you can track progress in multiple ways:
- Kanban Board — The ticket card shows which Pod is working on it and the agent's current status
- Ticket Detail — Click the ticket to see all linked Pods, comments, and git activity
- Git Activity — Commits and merge requests made by the Pod are automatically linked to the ticket
- Comments — Add notes or feedback directly on the ticket
Move Through the Workflow
Drag tickets between columns to update their status, or use the status dropdown in the ticket detail view:
Review Git Activity
Each ticket tracks all git activity from its linked Pods:
- View commits made by the AI agent on the ticket detail page
- See merge/pull requests created from the Pod's worktree branch
- Use this information to review and merge the agent's work into your main branch
