Onboard onto any feature in one command

Paste a Jira epic or Confluence page and Katastasi builds the whole dev-ready pack — system design, database changes, ordered tasks, tests and ready-to-run curls — right on your machine. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Why teams use it

Local-first, no SaaS

A tiny server runs on the developer's PC. Credentials live in a local .env; requirements and tasks are markdown in the repo. No accounts, no upload.

Deep discovery

Paste one epic — it pulls the child issues, related Confluence pages, and anything linked in the descriptions, for you to confirm.

System design + DB changes

An end-to-end data-flow diagram, plus an enumerated list of every migration the feature needs in production.

Tasks a junior can run

Dependency-ordered tasks with the code, Jira and Confluence context inline — plus tests and ready-made curls to verify.

Two-way sync, never lost

Reconcile tasks with Jira/GitHub issues 3-way; conflicting edits are flagged, never overwritten.

Agent-native

An MCP server + drop-in Claude/Copilot skills (katastasi init-skills) so your AI tools drive every step.

Get started

You'll need an Atlassian API token (for Jira/Confluence) and an AI key (OpenAI or a GitHub token) for the design step. Then:

npx katastasi web
