@rallegretti rallegretti released this 16 Oct 01:47

The first release of PlanCraft, a desktop project planner for tasks, milestones, people and schedules, with built-in support for AI assistants.

Highlights

  • Gantt chart and task list. Edit tasks like a spreadsheet, drag bars to reschedule, and link tasks by dragging one bar onto another. Dates recalculate automatically, and the critical path is shown.
  • Milestones with deliverables. Each checkpoint lists the tasks that make it up, its progress, and whether it's on track, slipping or late.
  • People and partners. Add team members, teams, partner companies, vendors and equipment, with rates, vacations, holidays and part-time schedules.
  • Workload. Resource Usage, Workload and Team Planner views show who is overbooked, and one-click leveling spreads the work out.
  • Estimates and tracking. Estimate in hours, three-point ranges or complexity points; log time on a weekly timesheet; compare progress against a saved baseline.
  • Cross-project links. A task can depend on a task in another project file.
  • AI assistants. Built-in MCP server: connect Claude Code (or any MCP client) to plan alongside you, with live updates and full undo.
  • Light and dark mode, ten views, multiple open projects, CSV export.

Before you install

This release is not code-signed, so your system will warn you the first time you open it:

  • Windows: at "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.
  • macOS: if macOS says it can't verify the developer, open System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.

Full install steps are in the README.

Known limitations

  • On macOS, double-clicking a .plancraft file doesn't open it yet. Open files from PlanCraft's Start Page or File menu instead.
  • Windows ships as a portable zip; an installer is planned.
