Tale is an open-source project workspace where teammates and AI agents share a task board. You write a task with its brief and source files, assign it to a person or an agent, follow progress on the board, and review the reports and files that come back. Each agent has its own runtime, model, skills and tools, runs in a persistent sandbox, and a manager agent can delegate ready tasks. It can be self-hosted with Docker or used as a managed cloud service.
