Pantry
GitHubDeploy

The issue tracker for small teams and their agents.

Pantry is a fast, keyboard-first tracker for one to three people. Point Claude Code or Cursor at an issue and it reads the brief, does the work and reports back.

Most trackers are built for companies with forty teams. You have two people, a few products and a handful of agents doing real work. You don't need triage, sprints or story points. You need issues that open instantly, a shortcut for everything, and one place where your agents read the brief and report back.

Tell your agent “work on PAN-42”.

Every Pantry instance runs its own MCP server. From an issue key, your agent gets the issue, its sub-issues, the comments and the space's context doc. Then it moves the status and writes up what it did, as you.

A brief agents read first

Each space (a product or a client) has a markdown context doc: stack, conventions, what not to touch. Agents load it before they start.

Shows as you, tagged “via MCP”

Agents act with your personal token, so every change lands in the activity log under your name.

Nothing moves by itself

Statuses change only when you or your agent change them. No automations to untangle later.

Seven tools

That's the whole API. Small enough that agents use it well.

  • get_issue
  • get_space_context
  • list_issues
  • create_issue
  • create_sub_issue
  • add_comment
  • update_issue

A shortcut for everything.

Pantry opens fast, updates the moment anything changes, and never makes you reach for the mouse.

Jump to any issue, project or action. Exact keys rank first, so pan-42 is always one keystroke away.

  • KPrevious

Capture an issue from anywhere on your Mac.

A global shortcut opens quick-add over whatever you're doing. A menu bar item and native notifications keep you in the loop. Built with Tauri, so it opens instantly and stays light.
