### What we like

Manage issues from a TUI, locally-backed by Git so issues live with the code. Works offline and uses append-only events to avoid conflicts (later events take precedence). Uses worktrees to isolate sync from the main dev workflow. Built in kanban board and a web UI.

### Tradeoffs

The tradeoff is no public web UI for others to view / submit issues.
