# Boards

[https://xedant.com/code/docs/boards.md](https://xedant.com/code/docs/boards.md)

Boards provide a quick note-taking space alongside your AI chat. Use them to jot down ideas, save reusable prompts, and collect things you want to send to the AI later — without interrupting the current conversation. Cards on the board can be sent to the chat with a single click.

Boards are Kanban-style boards where you can organize notes and prompts in columns and cards. Each column groups related cards — for example, “Ideas”, “Prompts”, and “Saved” — and cards hold individual notes or prompt text.

The main use case is quick capture: while the AI is working on a task, open the board and drop a few cards with your next ideas or prompts. Once the current response finishes, send them to the chat one by one. No context switching, no separate notepad app.

Boards open in a bottom drawer that stays within your current chat — no need to navigate away or open a separate page. The drawer can be made semi-transparent so you can monitor the chat while reviewing your notes.

## Opening Boards

Click the **Prompts** button in the chat input area. A drawer opens showing your boards. Select a board to view it, or create a new one if none exist yet.

Any card can be sent directly to the chat as a prompt with a single click. The card’s text is pasted into the chat input and sent automatically — no typing, no copy-paste. This is the primary workflow: capture ideas on the board, then send them to the AI when ready.

A board consists of two elements:

- **Columns** — Vertical lists grouping related cards. Each board can have up to 10 columns.
- **Cards** — Individual notes within columns. Each card has a title and optional description. Cards can be dragged between columns.

## Creating and Managing Columns

**To add a column:** Click the “Add column” button. Drag it to the position you want.

**To rename a column:** Click the column title to edit it inline. Type the new name and press Enter.

**To delete a column:** Remove all cards from the column first, then use the delete option.

**To reorder columns:** Drag a column header left or right.

## Creating and Managing Cards

**To add a card:** Click within a column to create a new card. Type the card title and press Enter. Click the card to add or edit its description.

**To edit a card:** Click the card to open its detail view. Changes save automatically.

**To delete a card:** Open the card’s detail view and use the delete option.

**To tag a card:** Assign tags (created in [Settings](/code/docs/settings)
) to organize and categorize cards. Tags appear as colored labels on the card.

**To send a card to chat:** Use the send-to-chat action on the card. The card text is pasted into the chat input and sent immediately.

**To move a card:** Drag it from one column to another. See the [Drag and Drop](#drag-and-drop)
 section below for details.

## Drag and Drop

Drag and drop is the primary way to organize your board:

- **Move cards between columns** — Drag a card from one column and drop it into another
- **Reorder cards within a column** — Drag a card up or down within the same column
- **Reorder columns** — Drag column headers left or right

Drag and drop works with the mouse on desktop and with touch gestures on mobile devices.
