Barynt v1.0.12
Star on GitHub
Open source · MIT · self-hosted

Plan the work. Own the server.

Barynt is an issue tracker in the spirit of Linear and Jira that runs on your own infrastructure. Boards, lists and dashboards, roles down to the project, SSO without an enterprise tier, and an MCP server your AI assistant can talk to.

Features

Everything your team needs to ship.

Issues, boards and dashboards, roles down to the project, sign-in with any provider and an API your AI can use. All included, nothing behind a paid tier.

Dashboardsnew in 1.0
Your dashboard, arranged your way.

Choose from 24 widget kinds, drag them into place and pick a size. Numbers, charts, notes, links or widgets you build yourself, for a project, the workspace or just for you.

MCP server/api/mcp
Your AI assistant files the tickets.

Claude, Claude Code or any MCP client reads and edits issues, comments, labels and attachments. OAuth 2.1 or an API key.
