Taskplane is an agent-native task control plane for teams that need humans, multiple agents, tools, artifacts, and approvals to work against the same explicit state.

Taskplane dashboard

It is deliberately not chat-first. The product is organized around:

• Tasks as the primary object
• Artifacts as versioned outputs
• Approvals as explicit gates
• Runs as accountable execution traces
• Events as the audit log

Most agent products treat collaboration as message passing. Taskplane treats collaboration as shared operational state.

That means:

• a planner can decompose work into a visible task graph
• specialist agents can own bounded runs
• humans can review artifacts and unblock approvals
• every important action lands in an event timeline

• Renders work as a visible lane board instead of a hidden conversation.
• Tracks tasks, runs, approvals, artifacts, and audit events in one snapshot.
• Lets operators mutate task state directly from the dashboard.
• Keeps the demo portable with a resettable JSON-backed workspace.

The point is not to build another agent SDK. The point is to make autonomous work reviewable, governable, and operable:

• a planner can produce a task graph
• a builder can execute against a bounded task
• a reviewer can stop or approve delivery
• a human can intervene exactly where it matters

• apps/api: control-plane API and demo persistence
• apps/web: operator dashboard and workflow surface
• packages/core: shared domain model and seed helpers
• docs: architecture and open-source roadmap

npm run dev

This starts a zero-dependency local control plane:

• API and web shell at http://localhost:8787

npm test

• shared domain model for tasks, runs, approvals, artifacts, and events
• a file-backed control-plane API with mutation routes and resettable demo data
• a local web shell served directly from the Node runtime
• a product framing that keeps the implementation aligned with the thesis

The demo control plane persists state in data/demo-workspace.json.

• richer graph visualization and dependency editing
• real multi-user state with durable backing storage
• policy-aware approvals and release gates
• repo and artifact adapters beyond the demo snapshot
