Trellis
Own, reshape, and operate the software of a small company.
The full lifecycle, customization, and company-operations system.

One app first.
One model throughout.
This is a build order, not a catalogue of shipped software. Plane Steward is the first candidate; every later surface must extend the same core through an adapter rather than a bespoke fork.
Firstv0.1 candidate
Plane Steward
Make one Plane project useful without becoming its sysadmin.
The proposed first real application and daily dogfood journey.
Open product pageNextv0.2 candidate
Studio Core
Connect private Git and work through the same operating model.
A Forgejo adapter only after Plane proves the core needs no fork.

Customer Spine
Stop retyping the customer between pipeline, project, and work.
One narrow CRM adapter with authoritative identity and provenance.
No implementation page yet
Laterv0.4 candidate
Company Knowledge
Give documents and agent context a portable, authoritative home.
A knowledge payload that passes retrieval, mutation, restore, and export.
No implementation page yet
Laterv0.5 candidate
Communication Edge
Turn messages into governed work without surrendering the inbox.
Email and chat remain external until authority and retention are proven.
No implementation page yet
The expansion rule
No new payload until the last one can leave.
A new application joins only after the prior adapter demonstrates observed lifecycle, versioned customization, governed content operations, scoped credentials, backup, restore, and export against a real boundary.
Plane→Forgejo→CRM→Knowledge→Communication
What stays stable
Products change. The operating contract should not.
Applications
Plane, Forgejo, a CRM, and a document system keep their own domain records and useful native behavior.
Identities & relationships
The company model preserves who, what, and why across source identifiers without inventing one giant database.
Capabilities
Stable verbs such as create work, request approval, or read health keep agent authority independent of one vendor API.
Actions & receipts
Every mutation carries intent, target, authority, idempotency, result, and causality through the same gateway.
First surface
Plane Steward is small on purpose.
Its job is to make one real project easier to own—and reveal whether the platform contract survives reality.
