Kandev

Kandev

Run coding agents from plan to pull request.

Open source. Agent neutral. Runs on your infrastructure.

From the first plan to the final review

Kandev in action

01 / 07

Shape the work before code starts

Plan with the agent, comment on exact steps, and move forward only when the approach is ready.

Connect the work

Built for automation

Start work through MCP, webhooks, or schedules. Keep the task, conversation, and review in the same place.

EXAMPLE / MCP

Connect your agent to Kandev

External agents can manage tasks, read plans, and exchange messages through MCP. This JSON uses the default local port; authentication requires a personal access token.

MCP documentation

Built for engineering organizations

One control plane. Your access model.

Agents use only the repository, integration, and executor access your team grants. Operate the same reviewable task model on a developer machine or a local or remote server.

Human-gated workflows

Plan, review, and approval gates keep the developer responsible for what ships.

Coordinator-led work

Kandev MCP lets an agent create subtasks, share plans, attach branches, and hand work off.

Daily engineering

Bring tickets, code, pull requests, reviews, automations, and quick chat into one workbench.
