IN THE FIELD GUIDE
Instify
instify.ai
Instify is a Mac-native app that manages AI coding agents Claude Code and OpenAI Codex on a kanban board, enabling developers to plan features as stories, run agents to build them, and review every change. It provides context-aware prompts shaped around the user's stack and full visibility into every move the agent makes, aiming to help solo developers ship like a team without babysitting or prompt engineering.
THE PRODUCT, BEYOND THE PITCH
Editorially reviewed · Sources checked Oct 7, 2026
A good fit for
- Solo developers who want to ship software features faster by managing AI coding agents with context and visibility.
Know the limitations
- Works best when user stories are specific and scoped; vague requests like 'make the app better' do not work well.
What you can do
- Developers building web apps, APIs, CLI tools, and mobile apps with clear codebases describable in user stories.
Features
- Context-aware prompts shaped around your stack and goals from the first line of code.
- Kanban story management with backlog, in progress, and done columns to organize ideas as actionable stories.
- Multi-agent support allowing assignment of Claude Code or OpenAI Codex per project or per story for the best tool per task.
- Agent insights feature that parses every line of output into structured events showing files, commands, and decisions live and with full history.

A practical workflow
- Describe what to build by starting a project, picking your stack, and describing the app in plain language to set context before coding.
- Break the project into stories by describing each feature as a plain-language story on the board without specs or prompt engineering.
- Watch the executions by picking an agent and running it; the agent writes code, runs commands, and makes decisions live without babysitting.
- Launch and review what shipped by launching the app and reviewing every file touched and decision made before moving to the next idea.
