Rule-bearing sections

Board location can apply policy, preview impact, and explain outcomes.

Scoped WIP

Limits can follow lane, work type, person, or local policy scope.

Card context

The useful signal set is visible without opening every Jira issue.

Safe sync

Local context stays distinct until a clear Jira write is approved.

Flow signals

Ageing, blockers, and health counters stay inside the board ritual.

Practice templates

Reusable board patterns help teams start from proven operating habits.
