Create your first project

After completing the onboarding, you can add a project from the sidebar.
1

Add a project

Click New Project or Open Project from the sidebar. For a new project, choose a parent directory and a project name. Coddo will create the folder and initialize it with a .coddo/ directory for storing chats and tasks.
You can also open an existing project folder - Coddo will initialize the .coddo/ directory automatically.
2

Explore the workspace

Once your project is open, you’ll see:
  • Sidebar (left) - Project switcher, task threads (todo/in-progress/review), and chat threads
  • Main area (center) - The active view (Kanban, Chat, etc.)
Git, Statistics, and CLAUDE.md are accessible via the more button in the sidebar.

Create your first task

Switch to the Kanban view and click + New Task. Give it a title, pick a provider (Claude Code or Codex) and a model, and write an instruction describing what you want the agent to do. For example:

Run the task

Move your task to the Todo column. Coddo’s queue runner automatically picks it up, creates a chat thread, and starts the agent.The agent will:
  • Analyze your project
  • Execute the changes
  • Show you tool outputs and progress in real time
Click on the task to watch the conversation.
5

Review and complete

Once the agent finishes, the task moves to Review. Check the changes in the chat and the diff viewer. For worktree tasks, validate and merge the branch. Move your task to Done on the Kanban board.
