TaskExplorer
Powerful system task manager
TaskExplorer is a powerful system task-manager / process-inspector tool designed for Windows that goes well beyond the capabilities of the built-in Task Manager. It provides real-time insights into running processes, threads, open handles, network sockets, memory usage, modules loaded, and more — all in a unified, fast, and efficient GUI. Rather than scattering information across tabs or dialogs, TaskExplorer displays detailed data in a panel layout: when you select a process, the lower panel updates dynamically to show relevant info (threads, handles, sockets, modules, etc.), making deep inspection quick and intuitive. It includes advanced panels: a Thread Panel with stack traces (helpful for diagnosing deadlocks or hangs), a Memory Panel that lets you view or even edit process memory (with search capabilities), a Socket Panel showing open network connections, data rates, pseudo-UDP connections (via ETW), and a Modules Panel listing all loaded DLLs and memory-mapped files. -

AI Dev Tasks
A simple task management system for managing AI dev agents
AI Dev Tasks is a Markdown-based task management system for AI-assisted software development. It provides structured prompt files that guide an AI coding assistant through feature planning, PRD creation, task breakdown, and implementation checkpoints. The project is designed to work with AI-powered IDEs and CLI agents such as Amp, Claude Code, Windsurf, and similar tools. Instead of asking an agent to jump directly into code, users can follow a staged process that clarifies requirements before implementation begins. This helps reduce vague tasks, missed edge cases, and uncontrolled agent changes. ai-dev-tasks is most useful for developers who want repeatable AI workflows that turn feature ideas into organized implementation plans. -

Taskell
Command-line Kanban board/task manager with support for Trello boards
Command-line Kanban board/task manager with support for Trello boards and GitHub projects. A CLI kanban board/task manager for Mac and Linux. Per project task lists, vim style key-bindings, stored using Markdown. Clean diffs for easy version control, support for sub-tasks and due dates, Trello board imports, and GitHub project imports. If you’re using a simple two-column “To Do” and “Done” then use the space bar to mark an item as complete while staying in the “To Do” list. If you’re using a more complicated column setup then you will want to use H/L to move tasks between columns. By default times are stored in the Markdown file as UTC. If you would like local times (and are unlikely to open the file in lots of different timezones) then you can set localTimes to true in the markdown section of the config file. -

Weft
Task management, but AI agents do your tasks
Weft is an AI-augmented personal task management board where autonomous agents can be assigned tasks and then carry them out across real services like email, Google Docs, spreadsheets, GitHub issues, and pull requests. Instead of just listing to-dos, Weft lets users describe work and attach intelligent agents that read context, perform actions, and request approvals before committing state changes, making task execution partly automated without sacrificing control. It runs entirely on Cloudflare’s platform using Workers, Durable Objects, and Workflows, enabling scalable and persistent task state with minimal backend overhead. Users can set up parallel agents to handle multiple tasks at once and even schedule recurring jobs that trigger daily or weekly to keep workflows on track. Notifications inform the user when tasks are completed or when agent approvals are required, keeping oversight within reach. -
