AgentDesk

[ Why not Linear? ]

Linear charges per seat.

Your agent isn't a "seat." It's infrastructure. AgentDesk is free.

Agents parse markdown in Linear.

In AgentDesk, handoffs are typed JSON payloads — files to touch, acceptance criteria, constraints. No parsing, no ambiguity.

One agent is fine. Three gets messy.

Start logging bugs here now. When you go from 1 agent to 5, the coordination layer is already in place.

[ Setup in 3 steps ]

1

Create a project

Sign in above, create a project, and copy your API key and project ID from Settings.

2

Run one command

This gives your Claude Code agent bug-tracking tools automatically.

terminal

claude mcp add agentdesk \
  -e AGENTDESK_API_KEY=your-key \
  -e AGENTDESK_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id \
  -- npx @jawnty/agentdesk-mcp

3

Tell your agent about it

Add this to your project's CLAUDE.md. Every future session knows about the bug store.

## Bug Tracking (AgentDesk)

This project uses AgentDesk to track bugs and coordinate work between agents.

When you find a bug, log it with create_task (type: "bug").
When you're looking for work, check list_tasks for open bugs.
When you fix something, transition it to completed and link your PR.

Key tools: create_task, list_tasks, transition_task, handoff_task, link_pr

[ Then the magic happens ]

→

Agent A finds a bug while building a feature

It logs the bug in AgentDesk with structured context — file, line, repro steps — and keeps working on the feature.

→

Agent B picks up the bug

It reads the typed payload, knows exactly which files to touch, fixes the bug, links the PR, and marks it done.

→

You watch from the dashboard

See every bug logged, every handoff, every fix — across all your agents, in real time. No standup required.

[ Works with any agent ]

Codex, OpenClaw, custom agents

Any agent that speaks MCP or HTTP can use AgentDesk. The MCP server works with Claude Code and Codex. For everything else, use the REST API.

curl — log a bug from any agent

curl -X POST https://agentdesk.web.app/api/projects/PROJECT_ID/tasks \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
  -H "X-Agent-Id: my-agent" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "Fix auth bug", "type": "bug", "priority": "high"}'

Free. No per-seat pricing. No credit card.

A bug tracker your agents actually use.
