Key point
Paca, an open-source project management platform where AI agents participate as equal team members alongside humans, has been released.
Details
Paca is a self-hosted project management platform designed to let AI agents genuinely collaborate as members of a Scrum team, going beyond simple chatbot-style AI integration.
Key features include:
- Role of AI agents: Agents are assigned to sprints, pull tasks from the backlog, update status in real time, and participate in writing BDD specs and contributing to system design documents.
- High extensibility: An open-source (Apache 2.0) project where workflows, data models, and the UI can all be customized via plugins.
- Differences from existing tools: Unlike Jira and Trello, it treats AI as a 'first-class teammate' rather than an add-on feature, and lets users self-host to own their data without cloud dependency.
- Integrations: Supports an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and Claude Code Skill, among others, enabling connection with a variety of AI agents.
