Your tracker talks to your AI agent
The problem
Tasks live in one tool, code in another
Developers context-switch between tracker and IDE. Status updates lag behind reality by hours.
AI agents don't know what to work on
You copy-paste task descriptions into prompts. Acceptance criteria get lost in translation.
Five integrations, five different APIs
GitHub Issues, ClickUp, Linear, Notion, Jira - each has its own conventions and field mappings.
How it works
Install
One command adds forge-tracker to your environment.
Detect
Auto-discovers your integrations: GitHub CLI, ClickUp MCP, Linear, Notion MCP, Jira.
Configure
Maps your workflow conventions, custom fields, and status transitions.
Sync
AI reads tasks directly from your tracker. Status updates flow back automatically.
Key capabilities
◇5 integrations
GitHub Issues, ClickUp, Linear, Notion, Jira - all at feature parity.
◇Bidirectional sync
AI reads tasks, updates status, adds comments. Changes flow back to your tracker in real time.
◇AC validation
Acceptance criteria extracted from tasks and validated against implementation before closing.
◇Custom field mapping
Your fields, your conventions. Sprint, priority, story points - all mapped to your workflow.
◇Autonomous scripts
Remove the plugin after setup - sync scripts keep running. Zero vendor lock-in.
