Pomodoist
Pomodoist pairs a task manager with a Pomodoro timer, so the list of what to do and the clock that gets it done live in the same app. Type a task the way you would say it and the quick-add bar sets its priority and estimates its Pomodoros as you type, filing it into the Inbox, Today, or Upcoming views. Plan the week on a calendar, drag cards across a kanban board, spread work along a timeline, or sort it into a four-quadrant priority matrix when everything feels urgent. Start a focus session and the timer tracks intervals against the task at hand, with configurable work and break lengths, while a 3D desktop companion focuses, rests, and celebrates along with you. Share a project and the discussion stays beside the tasks, with comments on shared items and the team's focus time visible next to the work itself. Reports chart weekly focus time, completed tasks, and habit streaks, and voice notes can become task checklists when typing is not an option. An MCP endpoint lets your AI tools manage the same projects after an OAuth sign-in, and optional Google Calendar and Telegram integrations meet the planner where you already are. The self-hosted instance unlocks every feature locally, with your own accounts and one-command backups of the whole database. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Leantime
"As simple as Trello but as feature-rich as Jira" is how the Leantime team frames its goals-focused project management system for non-project managers - built from the ground up with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia in mind, with behavioral science shaping customizable dashboards, time blocking, low-cognitive-load prioritization, and Kanban, list, table, Gantt, and calendar views so each person works the way their brain does. The PHP application (AGPL, Laravel Blade frontend) connects strategy to execution: tasks with unlimited subtasks and dependencies roll up into milestones on a timeline, sprints and retrospectives handle iteration, and strategy-level blueprint boards - Lean Canvas, SWOT, risk analysis, goal and metric tracking - keep the "why" attached to the work. Knowledge lives alongside: wikis and docs, idea boards, comments on everything, file storage on S3 or local disk, even screen and webcam recording. Time tracking with timesheets supports estimation and client billing. Admin features are serious for an OSS tool: per-project permissions, two-factor auth, LDAP and OIDC single sign-on, Slack, Mattermost, and Discord integrations, a plugin system, and an expanding API that now powers a mobile app. Recent releases added multi-collaborator task assignment and low-vision accessibility improvements. Available in 20+ languages.
OpenTodo
Plan the day in the morning, capture tasks in your own words as they appear, and let every device settle on the same list by evening: that rhythm is what OpenTodo is built around. The Today view opens with a briefing, a daily limit, and morning, afternoon, and evening sections, with time blocking and meetings counted against the day's real capacity. Quick add understands natural language in six languages, a pasted list becomes tasks in one step, and the command bar, inbox processing, email-to-task, and dictation keep capture fast. Projects organize work with sections, boards whose cards carry notes, timelines, sub-projects, and areas, while recurring tasks and sequential projects handle routines and ordered work. Lists can be shared with the people you live and work with, invited by link once the owner account exists. Every device keeps a full copy and works offline; changes are stamped per field and merge cleanly through your server when you reconnect, with history and undo preserving earlier values. CalDAV and calendar feeds connect your calendars, GitHub and GitLab issues flow in, and webhooks plus ntfy, Pushover, and Gotify send notifications out. Scheduled backups go to a folder, S3-compatible storage, or WebDAV, and the whole server is one container around one SQLite file. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Pad
Your coding agents finish a session, close the laptop, and forget everything; Pad is where the project remembers. It holds the tasks, plans, bugs, ideas, and decisions in one workspace that you drive from a browser while your agents drive it from the terminal, so the next session, human or machine, picks up exactly where the last one stopped. You plan on boards, lists, and tables with drag-and-drop status columns, rich item pages, comment threads, and a dashboard that answers what needs attention and what to do next. Your agents read the queue, claim items, leave checkpoints, link their pull requests, and mark work fixed with the fixing PR attached. Conventions teach them the house rules once, like running tests before calling a task done, and playbooks hand them repeatable multi-step workflows they can invoke by name. Every change is versioned with its author, a person or a named agent, and new items appear in the browser the moment an agent creates them in the terminal. The same workspace is reachable three ways: the web interface, the pad CLI, and a bundled MCP server with a natural-language skill that plugs into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, OpenCode, Copilot, Amazon Q, and Junie. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
Kaneo
With nearly 8,000 GitHub stars since its December 2024 launch, Kaneo has rapidly gained traction as the minimalist alternative to bloated project management platforms like Jira and Linear. Built on TypeScript with React and Hono, the interface strips away complexity to focus on execution — plan in list view, track in kanban board, and schedule on interactive Gantt chart timelines where dragging bar handles adjusts start and due dates with optimistic UI updates. Native GitHub integration synchronizes issues bidirectionally, links pull requests to tasks, and keeps product planning aligned with development execution without context switching. The built-in Model Context Protocol server at /api/mcp enables AI tools like Claude and Cursor to manage tasks, projects, and labels directly, while the official @kaneo/mcp npm package provides stdio access for local MCP clients. Authentication supports password, magic link, GitHub OAuth, and Google sign-in with organization-level access management. Rich text editing for task descriptions and comments, label-based initiative grouping, priority levels, assignee management, and due date tracking provide focused planning without ceremony. Deploy with the drim CLI for automatic HTTPS and database setup, Docker Compose for custom configurations, or Helm charts for Kubernetes clusters — all requiring just 2GB RAM and PostgreSQL. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Paperclip
With over 77,000 GitHub stars accumulated in under five months since its March 2026 launch, Paperclip has become the default control plane for teams running multiple AI agents in production. Rather than juggling dozens of terminal tabs with Claude Code sessions, Codex instances, and Gemini CLI workers, Paperclip organizes all agents into a company structure with org charts, reporting lines, role-based permissions, and per-agent monthly budgets that trigger hard-stops when exceeded. The platform supports any runtime through its adapter system — Process adapters manage local CLI agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Pi, and OpenCode as child processes, while HTTP adapters trigger remote agents via webhooks to OpenClaw, serverless platforms, or custom endpoints. Heartbeat-based execution wakes agents on configurable schedules, injecting goal context, budget state, and workspace paths directly into the invocation payload. The Work and Task System provides atomic checkout with execution locks, first-class blocker dependencies, and structured work products to eliminate duplicate effort. Governance features include approval workflows, decision tracking, emergency stops, and full audit trails tracing every mutation to an actor. Deployment runs as a single Node.js process with embedded PostgreSQL locally or scales to external Postgres for production, installable in one command via npx paperclipai onboard. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Will Be Done
Seven columns, one per day, hold your whole week of tasks in Will Be Done, and rebalancing a crowded Wednesday means dragging a card to Friday. Unfinished tasks keep their day and get a quiet yellow marker instead of piling into tomorrow as red overdue badges. The Today view narrows the screen to one day, and Stash holds the few tasks you want close at hand without picking a date. Projects get kanban boards with columns you define, such as Week, Month, Ideas, and Someday, and separate spaces keep work and personal planning apart. Tasks carry descriptions and checklists, and recurring tasks repeat daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly with custom intervals and end dates. Every device holds a full local database, so planning, completing, and rescheduling happen with no network at all, and changes sync across tabs and devices once the server is reachable. Vim keys such as h, j, k, and l move through everything, and a global quick-add shortcut in the Linux, macOS, and Windows desktop apps captures a task without leaving the window you are in. Todoist and TickTick imports bring existing projects along, and a token-protected HTTP API with OpenAPI docs lets scripts, cron jobs, and bots drop tasks straight into your stash. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Mission Control
With over 600 GitHub stars and a featured Show HN launch, Mission Control is the agent-first command center that replaces the chaos of manually shepherding AI agents with structured delegation, approval workflows, and autonomous execution. The Next.js 15 web UI delivers an Eisenhower priority matrix with drag-and-drop quadrants, a Kanban board tracking tasks through Not Started, In Progress, and Done columns, and a goal hierarchy with milestone progress bars — powered by shadcn/ui, Radix UI, and @dnd-kit. Six built-in agent roles — Researcher, Developer, Marketer, Business Analyst, Tester, and You — receive tasks through a token-optimized API compressing context by 92 percent to approximately 50 tokens versus 5,400 unfiltered. The autonomous daemon polls task queues on cron schedules, spawns Claude Code sessions via the official CLI, enforces concurrency limits, and auto-retries with loop detection that escalates to human decisions after three failures. Field Ops extends execution to 64 external services across 16 categories with working X, Ethereum with MetaMask signing, and Reddit adapters, protected by AES-256-GCM encrypted vault with scrypt key derivation, per-service and global spend limits, a circuit breaker, and three autonomy levels. All data lives in local JSON files with Zod validation and async-mutex locking ensuring safe concurrent writes, backed by 193 automated Vitest tests. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Kwant
Instead of one chatbot that confidently declares victory, Kwant gives you a whole team of AI bots that check each other's work before anyone says done. Create spaces for work, a side project, and home, each with its own bots, teams, channels, routines, and accounts, then watch messages route automatically to the bot whose skills fit, with a line under every reply explaining why that bot answered. Bots hand tasks to each other with a mention, and every hand-off becomes a card on the Mission board showing verified results this week, their cost, and what still needs you. A card turns Verified only when Kwant runs the check itself, such as a test or a file check, and keeps the receipt, because files a bot attaches are evidence, never proof. Connect several Claude, Codex, or Grok logins plus Anthropic, OpenAI, or xAI keys, set a priority order, and a turn moves to the next account when one runs out of usage. Schedule routines that run while you are away, collect waiting, finished, and failed work in one Inbox, and approve risky steps like pushes or payments from a card that shows the exact command first. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
TaskView
Your team's work lives in boards, sprints, and deadlines, and TaskView keeps all of it on infrastructure you control instead of a vendor's cloud. Projects break down into lists, tasks, and nested subtasks with priorities, tags, deadlines, and assignees, arranged on custom Kanban boards whose statuses you define yourself. A dependency graph shows which tasks block which, sprints organize iterations, and recurring tasks regenerate on schedule so weekly rituals never need manual recreation. Built-in time tracking separates billable from non-billable hours, and analytics turn that data into workload reports, productivity views, and income and expense summaries. Multiple organizations share one instance with invites, granular role permissions, and real-time updates, while SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, and SCIM provisioning plug into your existing identity provider. GitHub and GitLab integrations connect development work to the board, signed webhooks push events into your other systems, and scoped API tokens plus a TypeScript client make automation safe to hand out. An MCP server lets AI assistants search projects, create and update tasks, and manage statuses within the exact permissions you grant. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. TaskView Source-Available License licensed.
Orbit
Orbit puts your team's tasks, documents, and conversations in one workspace on your own server, so planning work no longer means checking three separate apps. Task projects carry your own workflow: switch between list, board, and timeline layouts, drag work between statuses, break large efforts into sub-issues, and link related tasks with an activity feed recording every change. Saved views keep preferred filters one click away, and personal pages like My tasks, This week, and Overdue show what needs attention today. Documents live in a page tree with teamspaces and favorites; the rich editor supports tables, code blocks, and checklists, several people can write at once with visible cursors, version history keeps earlier drafts recoverable, and a Notion importer brings existing pages across. Chat sits beside the work rather than in a separate silo: channels, direct messages, threads, files, reactions, and search, with links to tasks and pages unfolding into previews inside the conversation. GitHub sync turns labeled issues and pull requests into tasks and completes them when pull requests merge. AI clients connect through a built-in MCP server with OAuth, so an assistant can read your projects with the full context of your workspace while the data never leaves your server. Administrators manage workspaces, members, roles, API tokens, audit logs, and scheduled backups to S3 from the same interface. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache-2.0 licensed.
Nowen Note
Nowen Note is a self-hosted knowledge base where your notes, tasks, daily journals, and mind maps live in one private workspace you control. One tree holds folders, rich-text documents, and Markdown notes side by side, with drag-and-drop ordering, unlimited nesting, colored tags, pinning, and full-text search across everything. Each note can switch between a rich-text editor and Markdown with live preview, split view, outlines, tables, code blocks, math formulas, diagrams, comments, and version history. Connect the AI provider you prefer, such as an OpenAI-compatible API, Gemini, DeepSeek, or local Ollama, to continue drafts, rewrite passages, translate, summarize, and ask questions answered from your own notes. Tasks get list, board, calendar, and timeline views with dependencies, recurring rules, reminders, and templates, while daily journals capture short entries, moods, and photos and roll them into AI weekly and monthly reviews. Teammates edit together in real time, and folder-level permissions, passwords, allow and deny rules, share links with expiry dates, and guest comments decide exactly who sees what. Imports arrive from Obsidian, SiYuan, Word documents, web pages, and plain Markdown, attachments can live on local disk or S3-compatible storage, and scheduled backups travel to email or WebDAV. Keep working offline with a cached workspace that syncs when you reconnect, clip pages from the browser extension, and connect other tools through the OpenAPI, SDK, webhooks, and MCP server. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
OpenHabitTracker
Notes, tasks, and habits in one app, synced only to a server you run yourself. Notes are written in Markdown and render right in the list, so reading one costs no clicks. Tasks get a planned date and time, a duration, a checklist, and a timer. Weekly statistics show what got done and how long it took. Habits are measured by how overdue they are, not by an unbroken streak. A habit on a ten day interval that is two days late reads 120 percent. Charts track progress toward the target for today, this week, this month, this quarter, and this year. They also list the ten longest streaks and what you finish on each weekday. Categories and priorities span all three item types. Search reads note text and checklist items, not only titles. Filter by date, status, or how overdue a habit is, then sort with eleven keys. Pick from 26 themes in dark and light mode and 20 languages, with full keyboard and screen reader support. Import and export JSON, YAML, TSV, or Markdown, or bring in a Google Keep Takeout ZIP. Native apps for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android sync with your server. The single-user Docker server also serves an OpenAPI spec, a Scalar UI, and a log page behind the same login. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Kan
What Trello fans wanted Trello to stay: Kan (kan.bn) is a minimalist, frills-free kanban board capturing the original vision before the enterprise pivots - and then adds the things 2025 actually demands. The core is exactly right: drag-and-drop cards across lists, labels and filters to find work fast, comments for discussion on cards, checklists, a detailed activity log tracking every change, and reusable board templates. Workspaces gather your team with member invites and role management, and board visibility controls decide who can view or edit each board. Migration is first-class: a built-in Trello importer brings existing boards over, so switching costs an afternoon, not a quarter. The standout differentiator is the bundled Model Context Protocol server exposing 46 tools across workspaces, boards, lists, cards, comments, checklists, labels, and members - meaning Claude Desktop, Cursor, Copilot, or any MCP client can read and manage your boards in natural language: "move everything assigned to me into Done" becomes a sentence, not a click marathon. The stack is modern TypeScript - Next.js, tRPC, Drizzle ORM over PostgreSQL, Better Auth (credentials or OAuth), Tailwind - with optional SMTP email and S3 file storage. Unlimited boards, lists, and cards; AGPL-licensed.
Yuvomi
Replace a dozen household subscriptions with one app that keeps your family's tasks, calendars, meals, budget, and shopping in a single private place you control. Nineteen modules cover the daily rhythms of a household: assign chores with deadlines and priorities, plan the week's dinners and push the ingredients to a shared shopping list in one tap, track income and expenses by category with automatic subscription renewal warnings, and log health activities from vitals to medications. Two-way sync connects to Google Calendar via OAuth, iCloud and Nextcloud via CalDAV, and Outlook via Microsoft Graph, so every family member's phone shows the same schedule without switching apps. CardDAV keeps contacts in sync with external address books. The budget module handles accounts, loans, split expenses, and per-category planning with savings goals and month-over-month comparisons. Documents attach to tasks, receipts link to transactions, and a checked-off grocery item books itself back into the pantry inventory with its quantity. A Kanban board, recurring task schedules, and a rewards ledger that pays out points for completed chores keep kids and adults accountable. Wall mode turns a kitchen tablet into a glanceable family dashboard, and the Immich screensaver shows your own photos when the screen goes idle. API tokens and a built-in MCP endpoint let AI agents and third-party tools interact with every module programmatically. Deploy on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Planka
Trello's board model on your own server: Planka is an open-source Kanban project management tool. Boards organize into projects with lists, cards, labels, due dates, checklists, file attachments, and per-card stopwatch time tracking, all managed through drag-and-drop. Updates propagate over WebSockets, so a teammate moving a card or adding a comment appears instantly for everyone without a refresh - a genuine differentiator among self-hosted boards. Card descriptions use a full Markdown editor, custom fields adapt cards to your workflow, and views switch between Kanban, grid, and list layouts. Authentication supports OpenID Connect single sign-on with Google, Azure AD, Okta, or any OIDC provider - a feature Trello reserves for enterprise plans - and notifications reach 100+ channels including Slack, Discord, Telegram, and SMTP via Apprise. A REST API with 50+ webhook events supports custom integrations, and one-click board import eases migration. Built with React and Node.js on PostgreSQL, translated into 35+ languages, deployed via Docker.
DailyHub
DailyHub is one calm page for a single person's whole day: today's open work grouped by project, the habits due this morning, and an inbox that catches everything that does not belong anywhere yet. The Today view greets you with a quick-add box, nudges about what is slipping, and a progress bar that fills as the day gets done. Focus mode pins the projects or tasks that matter and hides the rest until a date you pick or until you clear it, so the full list stops shouting. Projects carry status, due dates, and milestones, wear logos with accent colours derived from them automatically, and raise a banner when work stalls. Habits run on weekday schedules and report back with a 14-day consistency strip and a completion rate, so a streak is something you can see rather than guess. Analytics chart completions over time, break them down per project, and surface the weekday patterns that show when you actually get things done. A command palette jumps to any project, task, habit, or milestone from the keyboard, and light and dark themes keep long planning sessions easy on the eyes. An AI assistant can join through the built-in MCP endpoint: ask what is still open in the inbox, add a task to the website project for Friday, or mark today's workout done. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
