DevTrack

Never write a standup again.

DevTrack watches your Git work, connects it to tickets, and prepares status updates and end-of-day reports in the background. It is local-first, offline-capable, and stages outbound actions for your review.

Website and documentation

Mogrov owns the DevTrack landing page, wiki, privacy page, and installer scripts. This repository owns the product code and GitHub releases.

What DevTrack does

• Observes commits without interrupting or replacing normal Git commands.
• Reports completed work without tracking hours or time spent per task in the v3.3.0 development line.
• Maps ticket-named branches such as feature/AUTH-42-refresh-token to work items.
• Builds reviewable ticket updates and end-of-day reports from the work already completed.
• Keeps its client-side source of truth in local SQLite and uses Ollama by default for local AI.
• Shares current work and DevTrack Sage knowledge with compatible assistants through ten read-only MCP tools.

Nothing is posted merely because DevTrack generated it. PM updates, transitions, and deliveries are placed in a pending-actions queue before delivery; configured earned auto-approval rules can advance eligible actions. Anonymous telemetry is also opt-in and disabled by default.

Get started

DevTrack supports Windows, macOS, and Linux. Git is required. The core Go client, SQLite storage, Git observation, queue, and MCP features do not require Python or an AI model. Managed AI features add uv, PostgreSQL, and an LLM provider; Ollama is the default.

1. Install

Use the Mogrov download link, or install the latest stable release directly:

Linux or macOS

curl -fsSL https://mogrov.com/downloads/devtrack/install.sh | sh

Windows PowerShell

irm https://mogrov.com/downloads/devtrack/install.ps1 | iex

Manual binaries and checksums are available on GitHub Releases.

Stable v3.2.0 retains the former time-tracking behavior. The fixes and removal are on dev at 860b91b, prepared for v3.3.0; rolling development builds use dev- . A push to dev does not upgrade an installed binary or publish a new stable release. See the development release notes and qualification plan.

2. Configure a repository

Run setup from the Git repository you want DevTrack to observe:

cd /path/to/your/repository

devtrack setup devtrack start devtrack status devtrack doctor

The setup wizard configures the operating mode, repository, LLM, identity, and optional PM integration. Choose none for the PM integration when evaluating the local-only path. Managed mode requires PostgreSQL for the optional Python service; Go-native features remain available while that service and the model are being prepared.

Managed mode starts the local Python server for AI-written ticket comments, EOD narratives, Boardroom reviews, planning, and voice personalization. External mode does not start Python: point DEVTRACK_SERVER_URL at a separately operated Python/PostgreSQL server for those features. With no server reachable, commit capture, deterministic ticket mapping, local history, queue, and MCP still work; generated reports and other server-backed features are unavailable. Model failures on a reachable server fall back to raw or templated wording. External mode skips automatic first-run voice mining. See the LLM guide.

3. Try the workflow

Use a ticket-named branch and commit normally:

git switch -c feature/AUTH-42-refresh-token

git commit -m "fix auth redirect"

devtrack logs devtrack queue devtrack eod

queue lets you inspect staged actions before approving anything. See the Quick Start for the complete first-run walkthrough.

In the development line, capture enumerates unseen commits across local branch tips, so rapid commits and switching branches during processing are included. Keep the daemon running: existing history is seeded at startup, and catch-up for commits made while it was stopped is not guaranteed.

devtrack work start AUTH-42 selects fallback ticket context; work stop clears it and work status shows it. These commands do not start or stop timers. devtrack work report generates a commit-based EOD report through the configured server.

Incidents, stories, bugs, and tasks all map by their work-item reference: for example, a Jira incident hotfix/OPS-123-restore-login, Azure DevOps story feature/ADO-456-add-export, or GitHub issue fix/GH-42-handle-timeout. The PM system supplies the item type; the branch kind does not. A canonical branch wins over an explicit commit reference, which wins over selected ticket context. Run devtrack ticket convention and devtrack ticket check to inspect the rule, or devtrack ticket link to correct an observed mapping. See work-item and ticket mapping for configuration, conflicts, and examples.

devtrack eod status and devtrack eod show read the latest report across local and server history. devtrack queue list --all shows recent actions from both stores. Server actions use IDs such as server:123: pass that full ID to queue approve, queue reject, or queue edit. Bare numeric IDs address local actions. An unavailable server is reported explicitly.

Agent memory and DevTrack Sage

Add DevTrack's read-only MCP server to the current project:

devtrack mcp setup

devtrack mcp test devtrack mcp status

Reload your MCP-capable assistant after setup. It can then read current ticket context, commits, pending actions, EOD context, voice information, and published Sage knowledge. MCP cannot approve actions or modify DevTrack data.

DevTrack Sage captures useful command activity from supported coding harnesses and turns repeated work into searchable local Markdown knowledge:

devtrack sage status

devtrack sage search "docker compose" devtrack sage topics

Privacy

The default Go, SQLite, and Ollama path stays local. External PM systems, delivery channels, and cloud LLMs receive data only when configured for the corresponding operation. Telemetry remains off until explicitly enabled with devtrack telemetry on. Read the full privacy guide before enabling external services.

License

DevTrack uses the DevTrack Community License: free for personal use and teams of up to 10 users; larger teams and hosted use require an enterprise license.
