Ergium
A local-first ticket system for orchestrating AI coding agents. Think Jira, but built for a world where the assignees are agents: markdown files on disk are the source of truth, a fast local web UI sits on top, and ticket comment threads are the human-to-agent communication channel.
The name is coined from the Greek ergon (work) plus the elemental -ium suffix: the element of work.
Status
Design phase. The npm package is a placeholder claiming the name while the real implementation is built. Nothing here is usable yet.
- Design and research review:

Core ideas
- Files are the API. Tickets are markdown files in a git repo. The web server is a viewer over the files, not their owner. Agents read and write the same files through a thin CLI.
needs_inputis a first-class status. When an agent hits uncertainty it asks in the ticket thread, you get notified, and you answer from the web UI instead of babysitting a terminal.- One dashboard for the fleet. Many agents, many projects, one attention-sorted view of what needs you.
