From the Mattermost team comes Focalboard, an open-source, MIT-licensed project board tool - a self-hosted alternative to Trello, Asana, and Notion databases, written in Go with a React frontend. Every board renders the same card data four ways: Kanban with drag-and-drop columns, a spreadsheet-style table, an image-forward gallery, and a calendar. Cards carry unlimited custom properties - dates, dropdowns, checkboxes, people, URLs - and boards can be grouped, filtered, and sorted by any property combination, with unlimited saved filtered views for quick access. Built-in templates cover the common workflows (meeting agendas, content calendars, project tasks, roadmaps, sprint planning), or you can build fully custom boards from scratch. Collaboration is real: card comments with @mentions, per-board permissions for teams or individuals, file attachments stored on your own infrastructure, and archiving with backup snapshots. Migration tooling imports existing boards from Trello (JSON export), Asana, and Notion, so switching does not mean starting over. It ships in 20+ languages and runs as a lightweight multi-user personal server. Worth knowing before deploying: Mattermost has shifted primary development to the integrated Mattermost Boards plugin, so the standalone edition is community-maintained - stable and functional, but evolving slowly. For teams wanting a free, private Trello without per-user fees, it remains a solid pick.

Open a project in DooTask and your tasks appear as a Kanban board, a list, a Gantt timeline, or a calendar, with team chat and file sharing beside them. Start from a project or task template and set a task to repeat so each new occurrence links back to the original. Mention colleagues in project and task chats, add emoji, and keep messages protected with asymmetric encryption. Files from chats and tasks gather in a Collaboration Files section, and WebDAV lets you manage My Files and Shared Files from Finder or Explorer. Check the dashboard for what is overdue, due today, or coming up, while department heads switch to a team view charting overdue and incomplete tasks per member. Visit the App Store to install official apps for approvals, OKRs, AI assistants, OnlyOffice, Minder mind maps, and Drawio diagrams. Administrators can add custom apps from an archive, a URL, or a GitHub repository. Add an API key for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, or Grok, or point to Ollama or any OpenAI-compatible URL, then type @AI Robot in a project chat to draft tasks. Log in on the web by scanning a QR code with the mobile app, or use an LDAP or Active Directory username. The free Open Source Edition covers three users; paid editions raise that to ten or unlimited.

Super Productivity eliminates the context switching between issue trackers, calendars, and timer apps that fragments developer focus, pulling tasks from Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, OpenProject, Linear, ClickUp, Trello, and Azure DevOps into one local-first interface. With 21,000+ stars and availability across web, desktop, Android, and iOS, it syncs issue status, subtasks, and time logs bidirectionally so sprint planning and worklog submission happen without leaving the app. CalDAV integration pulls calendar events into your task timeline for visual timeboxing. Built-in Pomodoro and Flowmodoro timers enforce focused intervals with configurable break schedules. Data stays under your control in browser IndexedDB by default, with optional AES-encrypted sync via WebDAV, Nextcloud, Dropbox, or the SuperSync server ensuring no task data touches infrastructure you do not own. The extensible plugin system supports JavaScript-based custom panels, automations, and MCP plugins for AI workflows. A REST API on port 3876 enables external script integration for desktop automation. Time tracking generates exportable timesheets compatible with corporate reporting systems. The Docker container serves the Angular PWA through Nginx on port 80, consuming roughly 50 MB of RAM. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

"Less is more" is Kanboard's stated philosophy, and the free, MIT-licensed PHP application lives it: drag tasks between customizable columns, enforce work-in-progress limits per column, and slice boards horizontally with swimlanes for releases, teams, or priorities. Tasks carry what matters - colors, categories, subtasks with time estimates, Markdown descriptions, comments, attachments, internal links, and due dates - and move or duplicate across projects in one click. A concise query language filters any board dynamically (assignee, category, due date, description), and saved filters become custom views. The automatic-actions engine kills repetitive triage: on events like column moves or task creation, Kanboard reassigns, recolors, recategorizes, or closes tasks by rule. Around the board sit a calendar, per-project analytics (cumulative flow, lead and cycle time), Gantt view, and time tracking. Authentication spans LDAP/Active Directory, Google, GitHub, GitLab, and reverse-proxy headers; a JSON-RPC API, webhooks for creating tasks from external systems, and a CLI cover integration. A large community plugin catalog adds what core deliberately omits. With no external dependencies, it runs happily on anything from a Raspberry Pi up - translated into 30+ languages.

Edict is a multi-agent orchestrator that runs every AI request through a court-style chain: a crown prince agent triages it, a planning department drafts the work, a review department can veto the plan, and specialist ministries execute what survives. Casual chat gets a direct reply, while real commands become kanban tickets whose titles are scrubbed of file paths and metadata. A vetoed plan returns for rework; an approved one is dispatched in parallel to ministries for finance, documentation, engineering, compliance, infrastructure, and HR. Commands arrive through Feishu, Telegram, or Signal channels configured in OpenClaw. The dashboard shows cards by state with heartbeat badges and stop, cancel, and resume controls, plus a department monitor and a memorial archive that turns finished work into five-phase timelines you can copy as Markdown. Nine edict templates add parameter forms and cost estimates, an officials panel ranks agents by merit score while tracking token spend, and per-agent model switching restarts the gateway in about five seconds. Agent thinking, tool calls, and results stream live. A permission matrix limits who may message whom, illegal state jumps are rejected, and every transition lands in an audit log. Worked examples cover competitive analysis, code review, and weekly reports. Dashboard login protects the console, and a systemd unit keeps it running across reboots. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Initiative is a self-hosted, multi-tenant project management platform that organizes projects, tasks, collaborative documents, and schedules into strictly isolated community workspaces without enterprise complexity. Users create distinct communities where data remains strictly partitioned across separate database schemas, allowing agencies, volunteer groups, and gaming guilds to manage multiple client environments from a single deployment. Within each community, initiatives group related projects and documents while interactive drag-and-drop Kanban boards track task progression across custom columns, priorities, and deadlines. Integrated collaborative documents enable team members to co-author notes, project briefs, and meeting minutes in real time with threaded inline discussions and user mentions. Granular role-based permissions let administrators specify exact view and edit privileges down to individual items, while a recoverable trash system prevents accidental deletions from interrupting live operations. Curated marketplace apps supply customizable analytics dashboards, and optional bring-your-own-key artificial intelligence integrations generate task suggestions and summarize lengthy discussion threads.

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.

Small teams that have outgrown spreadsheets but balk at per-seat CRM pricing can run Django-CRM on their own server, with leads, deals, tasks, and email campaigns in one self-hosted system. Requests from website contact forms arrive automatically, email requests are imported from the company mailbox, and each gets a unique ticket and is matched against existing companies, contacts, and leads. When nothing matches, a new lead is created and later converted into a company and contact person. Deals carry products, payments, currencies, and price tiers, and the price list exports to Excel. Tasks can be individual or team-based with subtasks, memos can spawn tasks or projects, and participants chat and share files inside each one. Eight analytics reports cover the sales funnel, income forecasts, lead sources, conversions, and closing reasons. The built-in email client works over SMTP and IMAP, supports Gmail through OAuth 2.0, and links each message to its request, lead, or deal. Mass mailings are spread through the workday and can use additional mailboxes to protect managers' main accounts from spam filters. Web forms are protected by reCAPTCHA v3, IP geolocation fills in each requester's country and city, and VoIP callbacks and WhatsApp or Viber messages are supported. Object-level permissions control who can view, add, change, or delete each record, and the interface offers 22 languages. 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.

A personal to-do list that scales to team project management: Vikunja is an open-source task manager that grows with the work. Every project can be viewed four ways - classic list, drag-and-drop Kanban board, Gantt chart for timeline planning, and a spreadsheet-style table - so a project manager watches the Gantt while developers work the board, on the same data. Tasks carry the full attribute set: labels, priorities, due dates and reminders, recurring schedules, subtasks and task relations, file attachments, assignees, and comments, and Quick Add Magic parses natural-language input like dates and labels typed inline. Projects share with team members or via links, and saved filters slice tasks across projects. Built-in CalDAV support (VTODO) syncs tasks bidirectionally with clients like Thunderbird, DAVx5, and iOS Reminders, and one-click importers migrate from Todoist, Trello, and Microsoft To-Do. Nothing is metered - unlimited projects, tasks, filters, and attachments. A single Go binary with a Vue frontend runs against SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL, exposes a full REST API, and works as an installable PWA on mobile. AGPLv3-licensed.

Tududi is a self-hosted planner that turns a pile of tasks into a plan for the day, keeping projects, notes, goals, and habits on a server you control. One Add box files an Inbox item, Task, Note, or Project and understands natural-language dates, recurrence, tags, projects, and people, so "every first monday #home" becomes a recurring task without opening a form. The Today page switches between planning mode, with a timeline or list beside your calendar and optional AI help to sketch the day, and doing mode, with a Next card and a hint when a free slot fits a small task. Tasks have subtasks and live in projects and areas, projects link to season or year goals, and saved views, project templates, and optional Eisenhower and Kanban boards organize the work. Habits support build or quit goals with streaks, a strength score, and a history grid, while notes offer linked pages, backlinks, and mermaid diagrams. Households and teams share projects with read-only or read-write access, assign tasks to people, and follow an Everyone board; members without email sign in through one-time links. Telegram captures tasks and can send daily summaries, CalDAV syncs with reminder apps, OIDC handles single sign-on, and an MCP server lets Claude or Cursor manage tasks. AI stays off until you enable it and add a provider; local models work too. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

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.

A drag-and-drop task board that works fine on its own and can also hand cards to AI coding agents, Veritas Kanban shows what each agent is doing, what it changed, and what is waiting for your approval. Start with no agents at all. Cards move through To Do, In Progress, Blocked, and Done, and each one carries subtasks, dependencies, time tracking, comments, and an activity log. When you are ready, connect Codex, Claude Code, Copilot CLI, Hermes, or OpenClaw, give every agent an Intern, Specialist, or Lead permission level, and follow each agent's status and model on a live dashboard. Let a task run in its own Git worktree, read the diff, leave inline comments, approve or request changes, and open a GitHub pull request from the task panel. Squad Chat gives agents one shared channel that posts spawned, completed, and failed events. Workflows chain steps with parallel branches, loops, and human approval gates. Policy rules allow, deny, or hold agent actions for review. Assistants reach the board through an MCP server, a command-line client, or a REST API.
