not inside an agent session.

Project state lives
with your code.

Initialize a project once. Istok gives it a persistent identity and keeps its state independent from any individual agent session.

terminal~/work/northstar-api

Describe the problem.
Istok keeps the work.

Your agent creates the task, claims it, records progress and validates the result — without turning task management into your job.

MCP Agent
MCP / Istok

See exactly
what happened.

Every task keeps a durable history of the work — when it was created, claimed, updated, finished and completed.

terminal~/work/northstar-api

Start with context,
not from zero.

When an agent claims a task, Istok retrieves relevant project context and freezes it into the run snapshot.

MCP / Istok

Switch agents.
Keep the work.

One agent can stop, another can continue, but the task remains the same. Istok keeps the work as one continuous thread across runs.

Done means
proven.

Runs keep the context and execution evidence behind the result. Agents can validate their work before a task is completed.

Built around
your project.

Agents come and go. The project keeps its tasks, runs and context as one continuous thread of work.

Start with Istok

Give your agents
a shared project memory.

Set up your project, connect your coding agents through MCP and let Istok keep the work between sessions.
