Local Markdown files with MCP server access beat cloud lock-in for scriptable workflows.

Strengths
  • Cards are actual Markdown files, making data portable and scriptable without exports.
  • MCP server integration allows LLM agents to read and write board state directly.
  • One-time commercial license avoids recurring SaaS fees for small teams.
Weaknesses
  • $49 commercial fee creates friction compared to free Obsidian Kanban plugins.
  • Native app requires install updates versus web-based competitors like Trello.
