See what your dev team is shipping, without asking
When your task manager and your repository disagree, standup becomes a status meeting. Link each task to the pull request that closes it, and the board starts telling the truth on its own.
The UnaTask team, Building UnaTask. Jul 26, 2026. 5 min read.
Every morning the same three questions go around the room. Is this done? Is that in review? Did the fix go out? And every morning someone opens GitHub in one tab and the board in another and tries to make the two agree.
The board says In progress. The pull request merged two days ago. Nobody moved the card, because moving the card is the kind of small chore that always loses to real work. So the plan drifts from the code, and the standup turns into a status meeting to close the gap by hand.
The fix is not more discipline. It is letting the work report itself. In UnaTask a pull request links to the task it closes, carries its status onto the board, and can finish the task when it merges. Here is what that changes for a team.
Every task shows the code that closes it
Open any task and its linked pull requests sit right there, with their live state: open, draft, merged, or closed, and whether the checks pass. A change that spans the API and the web app can carry both. Anyone looking at the task can see what is actually happening in the repo, without a single question in chat.
The board tells the truth on its own
When a pull request merges, the task can move to Done by itself, so the column you are looking at matches what really shipped. You set the behaviour once for the workspace:
- Just update the badge when you want to keep the last word.
- Notify the assignees so the people on the task hear their code landed.
- Move the task to Done so the board closes the loop for you.
Review load stops being invisible
Reviews are real work, but they rarely show up on anyone’s plan. With pull requests on the tasks, you can see how much is waiting on review across a project, and treat it like the work it is. Drag a review block onto your week next to the coding, so the time it takes is planned, not squeezed.
Standup gets shorter when the board already answers the question you were about to ask.
It links itself, so nobody has to remember
The habit that makes this work has to be effortless, so it is. Copy the task reference and drop it in the pull request description or the branch name, and the pull request attaches to the task on its own. The linking happens inside the flow the team already has, not as one more step to forget.
And the same GitHub connection brings your Issues in as tasks, priority from the labels and due date from the milestone, so the planning side and the code side share one source of truth.
Run that standup again. The board shows what merged overnight, what is still in review, and what has not started, because the pull requests put it there. The three questions answer themselves, and you get the ten minutes back.
