# Automations (/docs/guides/roadmap/automations)



<ComingSoon tier="MVP scope" />

RyTask plans an automation engine built on trigger → condition → action rules: when a
status changes, assign someone, move the item, add a label, or call a webhook. The
structural advantage is **unlimited automation runs** — every SaaS competitor meters them
(Jira around 100, ClickUp 100, Trello 250, Monday caps too), but there is nothing to
meter when the software runs on your own server.

What's planned:

* **Trigger → condition → action rules** — basic rules first (MVP scope), full builder later (v2).
* **Unlimited runs** — the self-host advantage; no caps (MVP scope).
* **Status-change automations** — auto-assign, auto-move, auto-label (MVP scope).
* **Webhook actions** — call an external URL when a rule fires (MVP scope).
* **Scheduled automations** — time-based triggers (v2).
* **Recipe packs** — prebuilt rule templates (v2).
* **Cross-entity automations** — rules that span projects (v3).
