It's not task management for your team. It's task management for your agents.
Delega is an open-source task API built with agents as the first-class user. REST and MCP. Per-task pricing. Agent-to-agent delegation that actually works.
The Problem
Todoist, Linear, Asana — they all charge per seat. Your agent isn't an employee. It processes 10,000 tasks a day.
Which agent created this task? Which one completed it? Todoist, Linear, Jira — none of them know what an agent is.
Your agent retries. The task restarts from zero. Everything it learned is gone.
Features
Every agent gets an API key and its own identity. Delega tracks who created, assigned, and completed each task.
One API, two protocols. Use MCP with Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client. Use REST for everything else.
Needles creates a task. Assigns it to Doc. Doc completes it and creates a follow-up for Marty. Full chain, tracked, persistent, inspectable.
Get notified on assign, start, pause, fail, escalate, complete. No polling. No guessing.
$0.001 per task on the usage tier. Not $12 per human seat.
MIT licensed. Self-host it, fork it, run it on your homelab.
In Production
“We run 11 AI agents daily on Delega — content pipelines, research tasks, coding agents, infrastructure monitoring. This isn't a demo. It's production.”
