Local-first task management
Your tasks, everywhere. Agent-ready.
Aven is a local-first task manager with a keyboard-driven TUI for you and a compact CLI for your coding agents. Keep tasks and context together across projects. Work offline, with optional self-hosted, end-to-end encrypted sync across devices.
Turn “fix this later” into a task with the context attached. Start another agent on it later. Decisions, progress, and blockers are saved as notes on the task.

Revocations get their own budget. Per client, or one global reserve?

Per client.

How should we do API key rotation? It can't break running clients.
Readsrc/auth/keys.rsRead 142 lines
Version the keys. Rotating issues a new key, the old one keeps working for a 7-day grace period, then a sweep expires it. Three parts:
1. An endpoint that issues the new key version
2. A sweep that expires old keys (needs 1)
3. Client docs for rotating without downtime
User
Sounds good. Make it an epic with tasks.

APP-K1RT has three tasks. Expiry waits on the endpoint.

APP-M4R2 Open the public API is the only high-priority task. In the epic, start with APP-R7W2, since key expiry waits on it.
Host it on a home server or VPS and connect over your own network. Devices encrypt tasks before upload, so the server can't read them. Every change lands locally first, and sync catches up when the server is reachable.
Jot a task down on your phone and it's in your terminal queue, not a separate notes app you forget to check. Priorities, projects, and full task details stay in sync, end-to-end encrypted through your server or Aven Cloud. Setup is one QR scan.
The composer inside aven or over any tmux pane, an agent session, or a voice note to a chat assistant. Away from your desk, just tell Aven. Every path lands in the same queue, in the right project.

Tell Aven needs AI set up on your self-hosted sync server. Requests and the task content they need go to its AI provider, outside end-to-end encrypted sync.
“I am really impressed by the functionality at this early stage. Became a default tool for me already and serves also as shared memory and persistent learnings for my agents.”
