The problem

AI can code. It still needs direction.

Pigtails manages the product work around coding agents: scope, context, acceptance criteria, review, docs, and follow-ups.

Stop rewriting context

Stop vague PRs

Stop trusting β€œdone”

Stop losing decisions

Stop babysitting agents

Core product

Pigtails turns product intent into scoped, delegated, reviewed delivery.

Memory

Contracts

Scope, tests, docs, risks.

Delegation

Sends Codex the right context.

Review

Checks diffs, tests, docs, and evidence.

Follow-ups

Product memory

Codex knows the code. Pigtails remembers the product.

Keep decisions, constraints, roadmap, testing rules, and delivery history inside the repo.

  • Vision and users

  • Roadmap and non-goals

  • Architecture constraints

  • Testing and review rules

  • Decision history

  • Follow-up work

Memory files
Repo files

Product decisions stay beside the work.

Constraints, testing policy, and follow-ups stay available for the next task.

  • vision.md
  • users.md
  • roadmap.md
  • non-goals.md
  • decision-log.md
  • testing-policy.md
  • agent-policy.md

Every delivery leaves the next task clearer.

Agent management

Manage the AI coding loop.

Pigtails does not replace Codex. It manages the work around it.

Codex first

Scope, delegate, and review Codex work today.

More agents next

Additional coding agents can plug into the same loop.

Humans stay in control

You set planning, delegation, review, and merge boundaries.

Authority

You decide how far it goes.

Strict for billing. Faster for docs. Always inside your rules.

Match autonomy to the risk of the work.

Approval controls
Authority levels

Higher autonomy is granted, not assumed.

    Draft scope and ask questions

    Allowed
  2. Delegate

    Queue coding agent work

    Allowed
  3. Open PRs

A primitive run is a counted execution of a core Pigtails capability. For launch, prepare is the counted primitive. Playbook automation can wrap primitives, but only primitive execution consumes usage.

Each account can have up to 5 active CLI devices. Revoke unused devices any time from your account.

Unlimited plans are subject to fair use, abuse prevention, and platform safety limits.

FAQ

Questions before you start?

The short version before you connect a repo.

Is Pigtails a coding agent?

No. Pigtails scopes the work around coding agents, reviews the output, and reports what is safe to merge.

Does Pigtails replace Codex?

No. Codex writes code. Pigtails manages the work: product context, task contract, acceptance criteria, review process, and delivery report.

How is this different from chatting with Codex or Claude?

Chat gives code-aware answers. Pigtails keeps product decisions, constraints, testing rules, and delivery history attached to each task.

Does Pigtails ask questions before coding?

Yes. Pigtails asks targeted product questions when a decision affects scope, risk, user experience, architecture, or quality. It avoids unnecessary back-and-forth.

Can Pigtails open PRs?

Pigtails is designed to prepare, delegate, review, and report on implementation work. You control whether it can create branches, open PRs, approve changes, or merge low-risk work.

Does it run locally?

Yes. Pigtails is designed as a local-first tool that works inside your development environment, with your repo, your editor, your product memory, your tools, and your approval rules.

What tools does it support?

Pigtails starts with Codex as the first supported coding agent and works with VS Code and Cursor. Claude Code, Grok Build, custom agents, and deeper task integrations are planned extensions of the same PM model.

Who is Pigtails for?

Pigtails is for founders and builders using coding agents who still need product judgment, review, and follow-through.
