One of my life’s traumas is the bug trackers, the issue trackers, the project management tools. The toolset that completes the version control log to form the development equivalent of double-entry bookkeeping.
The issue tracker that runs inside the loop.
A local-first issue tracker for coding agents and the humans steering them. Queries in 4ms, on your own machine.

Did Claude Increase Bugs in rsync?
In late May 2026, rsync blew up. GitHub, Hacker News, Lobsters: hundreds of people arguing about whether open-source maintainers can ship AI-written code and have it be reliable — and whether the people taking the code for free get to demand how it is made.
JIRA is an antipattern | TechCrunch
Atlassian's JIRA began life as a bug-tracking tool. Today, though, it has become an agile planning suite, "to plan, track, and release great software." In
An interesting thing is happening to me at the moment. I have a standing bug bounty policy for my first authored scientific work. That means, I've committed to pay people who report bugs in my code, up to 750€ for severe errors. Since GPT-6 Astra came out, I'm now getting several bug reports daily.
