A self-hosted project tracker that runs as the standing progress ledger for local work.

The problem

Work spread across sessions and tools loses its history. Status lives in someone's head instead of a record anyone, human or agent, can read back later.

What it does

Tracks issues, projects, and status updates through its own REST API and MCP server, backed by Postgres. Agents and humans read and write the same ledger, so a project's real state survives a session ending.

Who it is for

Any local project that needs continuity across sessions instead of relying on memory.
