Local-first AI roadmaps & agent task orchestration in VS Code

Hey Product Hunt! I'm super excited to share **SoloMap** with you today! As a solopreneur and developer, I kept running into the same problems when trying to use AI tools to build my projects: 1. **Cloud Lock-in & Costs**: Constantly paying subscription fees for cloud-based AI tools where I don t own the execution flow. 2. **Context Fragmentation**: Dispatched AI agents frequently "forget" the broader roadmap context or what they did in the previous step. 3. **Data Privacy**: Reluctance to upload proprietary codebase directories or idea drafts to external databases. That s why I built SoloMap: a **local-first AI roadmap and agent task coordinator** that lives entirely inside VS Code. ### How it works: 1. **Initialize**: Run the extension, choose a project folder, and SoloMap creates a starter roadmap node. 2. **Generate & Refine**: Let your local agent CLI (like Antigravity `agy`, Claude Code, or Codex) modify and write the real `roadmap.csv` in your folder. 3. **Execute**: Expand any roadmap node to launch a dedicated conversation in VS Code s integrated terminal. 4. **Handoff Memory**: The extension writes a lightweight handoff file (`.solopreneur/step-memory/.json`) detailing file changes and completions. Future runs read this memory so your local agent is always fully aligned with prior progress. ### Why local-first? By keeping roadmaps, SQLite logs, and step session histories inside your project folder under `.solopreneur/`, you can **commit your agent environment to Git**. Your workspace state moves with your code. You can switch computers, review diffs, and work completely offline without relying on a remote SaaS database. SoloMap is free, open-source, and built to empower indie hackers to build, deliver, and iterate with confidence. I d love to hear your feedback, feature ideas, and thoughts in the comments. Let's make local-first AI development seamless together! Happy building, The SoloMap Team
