Agents work the columns. You decide what moves.
Each stage has its own agent. Connect a model, Polarion, Jira, GitHub. A card waits until you approve. The board below is the real Control Room — try it.
Preview — open a card, Settings, or a column Agent. Nothing writes to Polarion or Jira from this page.
Delivery
Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld each run a real agent. Polarion and Jira ride along as tools. You still confirm before a card moves.

Settings
Connect a model so columns run for real. Polarion, Jira, and GitHub unlock as tools on each Agent.

Python 3.12+. The PyPI name is norns-ide (norns is taken). The command is norns. Init prints a generated admin password into ~/.norns/config.toml.
PyPI
uv tool install norns-ide norns init norns run
Or pip install norns-ide, then the same norns init / norns run.
TestPyPI
pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple/ norns-ide==0.0.2 norns --version norns init norns run
