INTEGRATION

Why Pyloq doesn't live inside the tracker.

Issue trackers were built as systems of record. Somewhere along the way they also became systems of attention, and that is where the design broke. A system of record is a place you visit. A system of attention is a place you live. The tracker is not a place anyone lives.

Pyloq does not try to win inside the tracker. It reads the tracker, it writes back to the tracker, but it lives between the tracker and the channel the team actually inhabits. The tracker stays the record. The channel becomes the workspace.

The result is that the tracker improves — cleaner tickets, fewer ghost issues — without anyone being asked to spend more time in it. The record is more accurate precisely because nobody is being forced to maintain it by hand.

LECTURE

Pyloq drafts. A person decides. The artifact waits for the yes before it becomes a ticket — and the yes is logged.
