Storybloq: A Project Tracker for Claude Code with Mac App, CLI, and MCP
Storybloq is a project tracker that stores data as JSON and markdown inside a .story/ directory in your repository. It's git-trackable and editable in any text editor. The tool includes a Mac App Store app (free), a CLI, and an MCP server that integrate with Claude Code via /story to load the full project context at session start.
Key Features
- Project dashboard on Mac: backlog, kanban, timeline from handovers, editable notes, autonomous session statuses.
- Live kanban updates as Claude updates tickets.
- Embedded Claude Code terminal in the same window to avoid context switching.
- 580 tickets and 260 handovers tracked during the build itself — the tool is its own test case.
- Mac app is sandboxed, signed by Apple, auto-updates via App Store. Requires macOS 14+ (Apple Silicon and Intel).
- CLI and MCP server (TypeScript) expose data to Claude Code. Source on GitHub.
How It Works
Run /story in Claude Code to load tickets, roadmap phases, and session handovers. The Mac app watches .story/ and reflects changes live. Everything is JSON and markdown, so you can edit with any editor and commit changes to git.
Implementation Details
The Mac app is built with Swift/SwiftUI. The CLI and MCP server are TypeScript. Both were written entirely in Claude Code using the same framework. The workspace's .story/ tracked every ticket and handover. Code review rounds were run via Codex through MCP.
