I’ve been working on something I personally needed as a solo builder: a way to keep AI inside my workflow instead of jumping between tabs all day.
Today I rolled out the first version of AI Project Assistant directly inside IndieDesk.
What this v1 includes:
• Project-aware chat (the assistant “knows” the context of your board)
• Per-project settings + API keys
• Clean, focused UI
• Saved conversation history
the goal is: less friction and more focus while building.

realy cool project man, congratulations
Thanks
Nice ship! The project assistant concept is interesting — I've been solving a similar problem from a different angle.
Instead of one AI assistant inside a project tool, I run 7 specialized AI agents that each own a domain: engineering, finance, marketing, sales, strategic research, health metrics, and a chief of staff that orchestrates them all. They coordinate through a "War Room" and each has a trust score (currently ranging from 57 to 85 out of 100).
The specialization matters more than I expected. My marketing agent (Draper) owns the CRM with 837 leads and produces AI voiceovers for demo videos. My finance agent (Burry) runs payroll accruals on a cron job. Trying to make one agent do all of that would be a mess.
Curious how you handle the scope problem — does your AI assistant stay in its lane, or does it try to do everything?
