One place for everything happening in an open-source project.

The agora (ἀγορά) was the central public square of ancient Greek cities — where citizens gathered to trade, debate, vote, and govern. Every major decision passed through the agora.
Open-source communities have the same problem as a city without a town square: debates happen simultaneously in GitHub issues, mailing list threads, design docs, and video calls, with no single place to see what is actually being decided.
Agōra is that town square. It crawls GitHub, mailing lists, YouTube, and linked Google Docs, then surfaces a unified dashboard showing what's being proposed, what's gaining traction, what needs a vote, and which discussions across different channels are about the same thing.
Overview — the pulse of the project at a glance:
- AI-generated digest of what's been active
- Last community sync notes with summary
- Upcoming community events with Join links
- Recent votes with pass/veto status
- Recent activity feed
Initiatives — cross-source topic clusters ranked by how many channels are engaged, grouped by stage: Vote · In Design · Cross-Source · Active
Feed — filterable stream of every item: votes, RFCs, PRs, discussions, announcements, videos, releases, milestones
Docs — design documents and Google Docs extracted from discussions, grouped by topic and sorted by date
