Planello Agents

Coming soon

Meet your new team.

A lead plans the card, coders build it and a reviewer checks every change, while you follow along on your board. They run on the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already have, and ask before anything you haven't allowed. Coming soon to the Planello desktop app.

How it works

You give the card. The team does the rest.

Start a team on any card. The lead reads it, the planner splits it into subtasks on the card, and the work goes out to coders who build side by side. Every message they send each other shows up in Planello as it happens.

  1. 1. Start a team on a card

    Pick the card and the team, or set a trigger so a card that moves to In Progress starts one. A whole epic works too, card by card.

  2. 2. Follow along

    Each agent has its own chat. Read what they tell each other, step in with a message, or pause anyone at any time.

  3. 3. Review and merge

    The work lands on the card's own branch. Try the preview, look at the changes, and merge when you're happy.

Teams and roles

Build the team that fits the work.

Start with one agent, a builder with a reviewer, or a feature team with a lead, a planner, a researcher, coders and a reviewer. Every role gets its own agent, model and instructions, and you decide who may message whom.

  • Mix Claude and Codex in one team: one builds, the other reviews
  • Run several teams at once, each on a card of its own
  • The team's overview shows who is doing what, with a timeline of the day

You stay in charge

They ask before anything you haven't allowed.

Every agent has tool rules: what it may do on its own, what it has to ask about and what it may never do. A question waits in the agent's chat and in your inbox until you answer, and the agent can't skip it.

  • Ask first
  • Accept edits
  • Auto
  • Full auto
  • Tool rules per agent
  • One inbox for every question

Everything a team needs

Built for real work on a real project.

Agents work in your project folder with your git, and on your board like you do: they move cards, tick off subtasks and write documents. Everything they learn stays in your workspace.

Teams

Ready-made teams to start from, with plain names you can change.

  • One agent
  • Builder and reviewer
  • Feature team
  • Who talks to whom
  • Team chat

Git

Each card gets a branch and a folder of its own, so your checkout is never touched.

  • A worktree per card
  • Commits named by agent
  • You approve each merge
  • Or pull requests

On the board

Agents use your board the way Planello AI does, and claim the card they're on by moving it.

  • Move cards
  • Add and tick subtasks
  • Write documents
  • Work through epics

Memory and instructions

What every agent should know, and what each one learns, in notes you can read and edit.

  • Workspace instructions
  • Agent memory
  • Skills
  • Changes they propose

Automation

Triggers act when cards change, so work starts without anyone asking.

  • Start a team when a card moves
  • Ask the reviewer at review
  • Call a webhook
  • Notify me

Following along

Agents Hub

Everything your agents do, in one place.

The Hub opens on what needs you, what is running and what was done lately, next to your plans' limits for the week. Start a team, an epic or a chat from there.

Usage

Know what every card cost.

Planello counts the tokens of every agent, team and run, as the AI reports them, and shows what the same use would cost at API prices. Here is the Checkout team's last two weeks: the shopping cart, then Stripe.

  • Per agent
  • Per team
  • Per card and run
  • Cost or tokens
  • Cached input apart

Your plans

Runs on the plan you already pay for.

Agents run on your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription, or on an API key when a plan's limits aren't enough. Planello shows each plan's limits while the team works, so a busy afternoon doesn't use up your week.

  • The 5-hour and weekly limits, and how many agents use each plan right now
  • Each role gets a fitting model: the strongest to plan, a quick one to look things up
  • Local models in LM Studio or Ollama run on your own computer

Safe by design

Your project stays yours.

Agents work on your computer, in your project, under rules you set. Nothing reaches your main branch until you say so.

Ask first

Commands and file changes you haven't allowed wait for your answer. In the ready-made teams, reviewers and leads don't edit files.

A folder per card

Each card's work happens on its own branch, in its own folder, so your checkout is never touched.

You merge

Agents ask when the work is ready. You look at the changes and merge from Planello, or they open a pull request.

On your computer

Agents run in the desktop app. Your code goes only to the AI you chose, and with a local model it never leaves your computer.

Works with your AI

Claude, Codex or a model of your own.

Each agent runs on the AI you pick for it. Use your Claude or ChatGPT plan, an API key, or any model from AI Configuration, including local ones, which Planello gives files, search, a shell and the board.

  • A model for each agent, and how hard it thinks, from low effort to max
  • Switch an agent to another AI at any time; its team stays as it is
  • Agents get the same board tools as Planello AI, so they know their way around
  • ClaudeYour Claude plan or an Anthropic API key
  • CodexYour ChatGPT plan or an OpenAI API key
  • Local modelsLM Studio or Ollama, on your computer
  • Any providerAny model from AI Configuration

Questions

Good to know

What do I need to run agents?

The Planello desktop app and a project folder, plus one way for the agents to think: a Claude or ChatGPT subscription, an API key, or a local model in LM Studio or Ollama. The setup walks you through it.

Does it work in the browser?

No. Agents need your project folder, git and a terminal, so they run in the desktop app. Your boards are the same in both, so cards you plan in the browser are ready for them.

Can agents break my project?

They work on the card's own branch in a folder of their own, they ask before anything you haven't allowed, and their work reaches your main branch only when you merge it. You can pause or stop any of them at any time.

What does it cost?

Planello itself is free. Agents use your own AI: on a subscription they count toward your plan's limits, on an API key you pay the provider. Planello shows what the same use would cost at API prices, so you can compare.

Do agents only write code?

Code is what they do best, but a researcher can look into a question and leave a document on the card, and every agent can plan cards, add subtasks and keep the board up to date.

When can I use it?

Planello Agents is in development and coming soon to the desktop app. Planello is free, so you can start planning today: when agents arrive, your boards and cards are ready for them.

Coming soon

Your next card could have a team of its own.

Planello Agents is on its way. Start with Planello today, free, and your boards will be ready when it arrives.
