RyTask docs

Feature status

Every capability on the RyTask roadmap with its tier and an honest, code-verified status badge.

View as MarkdownOpen in ChatGPTOpen in Claude

Every capability gets one of three badges: Available means it is in the code today, In progress means it is being built right now, and Coming soon means it is planned but not started. This page is maintained against the code, not the marketing copy — the tier column shows where each capability sits on the roadmap (MVP, v2, v3).

The nine differentiators

IDDifferentiatorIn one sentence
D1Non-technical-friendly UXThe whole product must pass the "Albert/Marissa test" — usable by a non-technical teammate without training.
D2First-class Slack captureTurning a Slack message into a tracked task takes seconds, not a context switch.
D3MCP with 100% workspace controlAnything a human can do in the UI, an AI agent can do through the MCP server.
D4GitHub integrationBranch, PR, and commit linking with auto-close and status sync, free from day one.
D5Real planning primitivesStart, end, and due dates plus estimates, building toward a true dependency-aware timeline.
D6Native time tracking + honest reportingA one-click timer, planned-vs-interruption tagging, and reports that show where the week actually went.
D7Priorities, custom workflows, multiple viewsCustom statuses with categories and Board/List views with non-technical-friendly defaults.
D8One-command self-hostdocker compose up and you are live, with safe transactional migrations.
D9Engineering depthAutomations, custom fields, cycles, milestones, sub-tasks, and dependencies — without metering.
