FoxDesk v0.3.6 Is Live
My New Year's resolution this year was simple: ship one real thing every two months. So I started with FoxDesk.
It's an open-source helpdesk and time tracking app. Free. Self-hosted. No per-agent pricing, no vendor lock-in, and no surprise moment where exporting your own data becomes a premium feature.
I built it for AENZE after trying too many helpdesk tools that all somehow felt different and identical at the same time: more seats, more cost, more tabs, more confusion, more enterprise features, less actual joy.
So I built the version I wanted to use. FoxDesk gives you tickets and work logs in one place, without turning basic support into a software procurement event.
If you're a freelancer, a small team, or an agency juggling multiple clients and trying to keep track of who did what for how long, FoxDesk is for you.
And yes, it's 2026, so it also works for AI agents. Use simple markdown reports or connect them through API. You can track their work and report it to clients.
Download it. Install it. Run it on your own server. Your data stays yours, which really should not be a revolutionary idea, but here we are.
FoxDesk v0.3.6 is live and I'd love your feedback. You can get it now at FoxDesk.org.
