PlanWright - Control plane for AI coding agents
Show HN: PlanWright – A control plane for AI coding agents
PlanWright acts as the essential control plane for autonomous software labor, solving the bottleneck where human planning and acceptance slow down AI coding agents. It transforms chaotic inputs like meeting transcripts and Slack threads into structured objectives with machine-checkable criteria. By automating mechanical acceptance tasks and routing only critical judgment calls to humans, PlanWright ensures your pipeline moves at agent speed. Every decision is cryptographically signed and hash-chained, creating an immutable audit trail that satisfies SOC 2 compliance requirements without manual overhead.
The machine doesn't accept — it sorts. You stop reading every diff and start ruling only on what actually needs a human, so your scarce judgment gets concentrated instead of flooded.

> Every other tracker still requires a web UI. Planwright is the only PM tool with a full MCP server surface — so the human PM can operate the entire board from any MCP-compatible AI assistant.
I don't know about you but I lowkey think that a UI is an important part of a project management tool...

Perhaps I am not the target demo, but there was so much jargon on that page that I did not have a firm grasp of what was even being said.
