Use Cases

How different teams and developers use barkcli.

Solo Developers

Manage your personal projects without SaaS subscriptions. Tasks live in your repo, version controlled with your code.

Small Teams (2-10)

Collaborate on tasks via git. No server, no admin — just push and pull.

AI-Assisted Development

Give coding agents context about what to build. MCP server exposes tasks to Claude, GPT, and local models.

Open Source Maintainers

Track issues, features, and roadmap in the repo itself. Contributors see tasks alongside code.

Migrating from Linear

Bring your workflow to the repo. Export from Linear, import to barkcli, keep your team's process.

Jira Alternative for Dev Teams

Replace Jira for engineering tasks. Keep Jira for non-engineering if needed.
