minddy

Issue tracking, product knowledge, and coding agents in one open-source workspace.

minddy is an open-source issue tracker for small product teams. It keeps the daily work in one place: projects, issues, objectives, saved views, collaborative pages, a public feedback board, and an MCP server that lets coding agents work with the same backlog as the team.

The application is built with Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, and Supabase. It also includes optional macOS, Linux, and Microsoft Store Windows desktop shells and integrations for GitHub, GitLab, Stripe, and OpenRouter.

Product tour

Take work from an issue to a pull request

Give a coding agent the issue, plan, repository context, and project knowledge it needs. Follow its work in minddy, then review the linked pull request and diff without losing the product context that started the change.

Keep durable knowledge beside the backlog

Write specifications, decisions, runbooks, and meeting notes in a nested project wiki. Pages support rich Markdown, issue mentions, attachments, history, and read-only sharing, so both people and connected agents can work from the same source of truth.

Connect customer feedback to delivery

Publish a feedback board where users can submit requests and vote. The team can triage posts, reply publicly, merge duplicates, and link feedback to issues so its public status follows the work through delivery.

Run locally

Requirements: Node.js 24 and pnpm 10 (the versions used by CI), plus a Supabase project for an interactive application.

corepack enable
corepack prepare pnpm@10.28.0 --activate
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
cp .env.example .env
pnpm dev

.env.example documents every optional integration and the Supabase dashboard settings. At minimum, set MINDDY_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL, MINDDY_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY, and SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY for a local application that can access its data. Never commit .env or production credentials.

The development command builds the agent-VM and page-markdown bundles before starting Next.js. See CONTRIBUTING.md before running code from an untrusted pull request: dependency installation, tests, and development commands execute repository code.

Minddy Cloud is the hosted and operated option from Minddy. Self-hosted is the same public core on infrastructure you control: no Minddy account, Stripe, PostHog, or managed provider is required. The edition guide explains the choice, data flows, responsibilities, and costs in one place. For a reproducible local or self-hosted Supabase bootstrap, see docs/self-hosting.md. On a fresh local clone, use pnpm bootstrap:supabase before pnpm dev instead of manually applying SQL in the Supabase dashboard. After installation, follow the self-hosted operations runbook for upgrades, coordinated Postgres and Storage backups, disaster recovery, and rollback. Release acceptance is recorded with the isolated clean-room self-hosting scenario. The official multi-architecture OCI image, its tag policy, and verification commands are documented in docs/container-image.md.

Common commands

pnpm dev          # run the web app locally
pnpm lint         # lint
pnpm typecheck    # type-check
pnpm test         # run the test suite
pnpm build        # production build
pnpm desktop:dev  # run the optional desktop shell

Architecture and deployment

Development follows a trunk-based branch contract: short-lived work branches merge by pull request into main, the integration branch and preview candidate. After CI and explicit production approval, automation fast-forwards production to the selected main SHA. There is no long-lived develop or release branch, and no human writes directly to production.

• Web app: Next.js App Router, React, Tailwind CSS, and mangue-ui.
• Data and auth: Supabase Postgres, Auth, Storage, and Realtime.
• Agent integration: OAuth 2.1 MCP endpoint and an optional Vercel Sandbox code agent.
• Deployment: pnpm deploy is the interactive maintainer entry point. It detects whether to release the public core, deploy the Minddy Cloud web app, and publish desktop applications for macOS, Linux, and Windows, with automatic, all, custom, and Windows-only modes. The Windows-only mode reuses an existing core release and avoids starting macOS or Linux runners. The assistant waits for CI, requests an approved fast-forward from main to production, verifies the Vercel Production deployment, and only tags that deployed SHA. Builds and production secrets never come from the maintainer's machine. Self-hosters should adapt its production/Vercel conventions to their own hosting.

Public releases are distinct from deployments. Their SemVer/tag policy, artifacts, checksums, migrations, CI provenance, desktop distribution, and rollback procedure are documented in docs/releases.md. Linux installation, GPG verification, XDG paths, and update behavior are documented in docs/linux-desktop.md.

The CI workflow is the source of truth for checks. It runs the public-repository check, lint, typecheck, desktop bundle build, tests, and dependency audit. See CONTRIBUTING.md for contribution and review guidance, and SECURITY.md for the security model and vulnerability reporting.

Community and governance

• Propose bugs and improvements through the repository's structured issue forms, and read CONTRIBUTING.md before opening a pull request.
• Ask usage and self-hosting questions in GitHub Discussions. The boundaries between best-effort community help and commercial support are documented in SUPPORT.md.
• Project roles, decisions, reviews, protected branches, and dependency policy are defined in GOVERNANCE.md.
• Participation is subject to the Code of Conduct. Report vulnerabilities privately as described in SECURITY.md.
