Issue trackingfor terminal dwellers. Epiq is a vim-inspired issue tracker that renders as ASCII, stores work as an immutable event log, and synchronizes through Git. No SaaS ceremony. No browser. Just your repo, your editor, and a board that moves at command-line speed.
Repo-nativeissues live with the workLocal-firstinstant edits, sync at willEvent-sourcedimmutable, traceableMCP-readybuilt for agent workflows
Why EpiqBringing devX to project management. Epiq optimizes for flow: keyboard navigation, command history, filters, autocompletion, and plain Git synchronization.
hjkl Keyboard centric Navigate boards, issues, swimlanes, and contexts with vim-like movement. Or cheat with arrow keys. git Distributed by default Epiq uses Git under the hood, with isolated worktrees and state branches, so teams can collaborate without introducing another central service.
log Traceable state Changes are appended as events, replayed deterministically, and designed to converge. Inspect what happened yesterday, last week, or one year ago.
The modelLocal first. Sync at will. Or automatically. Create, move, filter, close, reopen, and sync issues without tab-switching. Epiq keeps local interaction instant while allowing you to sync explicitly or automatically. # inside any Git repo epiq
