Hey everyone! 👋

As a software engineer who loves staying in the zone, I’ve always felt torn between two worlds: standard task managers feel like clunky, mouse-heavy interruptions, but completely headless text files miss the convenience of a visual dashboard.

That’s why I built Task Manager (CLI + TUI). It’s a lightweight terminal app designed to bridge that exact gap for developers and automated workflows.

Here is why it’s built differently:

💾 Pure YAML, Git-Friendly Storage: No proprietary databases or hidden cloud synchronization. Your tasks live right in your project repository. You can track changes, review task diffs in pull requests, and handle conflicts using standard Git tools.
🖥️ Interactive Terminal UI: When you want to browse and adjust your tasks visually, you don't have to type out long commands. Just launch the interactive TUI right inside your favorite terminal emulator.
🤖 Automation & AI-Agent Ready: It features a robust CLI built for full scriptability. You can seamlessly pipe tasks into your CI/CD pipelines, drop them into bash scripts, or connect the app directly to AI coding agents to manage backlogs autonomously.
🔒 Complete Privacy: Built with absolutely zero telemetry, tracking, or external analytics. Your data never leaves your machine.

Whether you're looking to streamline your personal project board, automate issue tracking via scripts, or provide a clean interface for your AI coding assistants, it's built to stay out of your way and just work.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or any feature requests you have. What does your current local workflow look like?
