| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team that wants an AI agent to complete an inspectable task in a working copy: understand files, make a bounded change, and run a test. Start with manual approval and scope the folder and tools. Do not give it broad access to production or sensitive data. | Best for a developer running several DSH sessions against one repository who wants visible branch context, history, and worktree creation in the UI. It adds session isolation and readable branch-switch guards. It may be excessive for one small change on one branch or for environments that prohibit outbound telemetry. | Best for an individual developer or small team using coding agents and wanting to review the specification and plan before code. It keeps tasks, acceptance criteria, and decisions inside the project and exposes them through CLI, a local browser, or MCP. It is not a replacement for a centralized enterprise SaaS board with organization-wide permissions and reporting. |
