Output
VIBE.md - The greatVibe Vision & Backlog
What Is It?
VIBE.md is the operational backlog for the greatVibe platform - an AI-first development workspace where humans and AI agents work as genuine partners. It contains the vision, philosophy, feature backlog, and detailed design documents.
Core Philosophy
| AI-First, Human-Centered | Every feature optimizes human-AI collaboration |
| Mobile-First | Review kontasks on the train, approve from anywhere |
| Async by Default | Kontasks don't block AI work; work continues while you sleep |
| Context is King | CLAUDE.md, kontasks, kontext maintain rich persistent context |
Two Scopes of Work
🔧 Vibetools
Platform development: konui, konsole, kontasks, session management
📊 Product
Konnect business: property listings, suburb data, CMS integration
High Priority Backlog Items
| 🔴 | WebSocket Console | Replace SSE with persistent bidirectional connection |
| 🔴 | Graceful Restart | Zero-downtime deployments |
