Progressor MCP keeps AI coding plans in your repo with a live multi-project dashboard
Sekrent · reddit · 2026-11-15
Developer Sekrent open-sourced Progressor MCP, tackling the pain of re-briefing AI coding agents after session compaction or switching between Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or VS Code.
How it works:
- Plans (goals + steps) live as local files in your project, not in any chat—sessions can compact, IDEs can switch, or you can start fresh tomorrow and the agent picks up exactly where it left off.
- No commands to learn: tell your AI "use Progressor"; it writes the plan, ticks off steps, logs deviations, and asks when it needs a decision.
- A browser dashboard at localhost:4747 shows all projects' progress, with a "Needs you" page collecting pending questions and decisions. The author runs 10+ projects in parallel.
- Install via npm or Docker; free and open source. Trade-off: writing plans costs extra tokens.
He notes someone cloned it within a week and sold it as a $100/month service—he intends to keep it free.
