hivemind

A canvas-per-project mission control for AI coding agents.

Drop claude, codex, gemini, or opencode into real workspaces where they can read issues, update status, mark acceptance criteria, and comment their own progress — through a Kanban PM model that's just plain markdown on disk.

Local-first · Markdown-backed · No SDK lock-in · No telemetry · No cloud.

_{An issue board and the live diff of a fix, side by side on one infinite canvas. The agent edits; the diff updates as you watch.}
