Hey HN! I built BossDesk because I got tired of writing SQL queries every time I wanted to check on my background jobs.

  If you use pg-boss (PostgreSQL job queue), this gives you a native Mac app to see what's happening: live queue stats, job inspection, retry/cancel operations, and cron schedules.

  It's free on the Mac App Store and open source. Your database credentials stay in your Keychain – nothing leaves your machine.

  Works with pg-boss v7-v11+ and auto-detects your schema version, so no config needed.

  Would love to hear what you think, especially if you're managing background jobs and have ideas for features!
