Show HN: TaskPeace – a task queue my AI coding agents pull work from over MCP

Honestly, this started as a throwaway script. Im running about 40 small sites and most of my day had turned into being a dispatcher for Claude Code and Cursor, re-typing "ok now do this" over and over. So I built TaskPeace: you rank one global list once, and the agent pulls the top task over MCP (get_next_task), does the work, writes a short result back when it's done, then moves to the next one. It'll run down the list unattended.

The bit I actually needed was task leasing, so I can point two or three agents at one queue without them grabbing the same task. Completing a task requires a written result, which sounds like busywork but it's the only reason I trust leaving it running for an hour.

Free to use, $10/mo if you want unlimited runs. It's MIT and you can self-host it (npm run serve, no database needed). There's a demo on the homepage that runs in your browser, no signup. It's early and definitly still rough in places, fair warning.

Some suggestions:

The landing page has an information overload (at least for me). I have a hard time understanding what to look at, because it's both a landing page with very dense writings, and at the same time something that looks like a real app.

Less is more. Look at some of the best landing pages out there. They tell the core story with a few words. A video where you walk through your product is even better.

Thats fair! Its trying to be a landing page and the actual app at the same time, so you cant really tell where to look. Because of yout feedback just pushed a change, cut most of the wall of text and moved the live demo up so its right under the headline instead of buried at the bottom. A short walkthrough clip is next on the list.

Thanks for taking the time to write it out, genuinly useful!

Just recently started playing with the idea of an agent that has multiple agents as subordinates. My main agent has the context of the system, controls api keys, tokens, etc. and has a high level overview of each project. Then I have an agent per project and some general "experts" (such as db expert, devops expert, etc.). My main agent (the captain) takes my inputs and then splits the tasks and reports back when the subagents have done the work. I wonder if this idea of having a queue may or may not benefit someone with my setup (running on openclaw). Have you tried this kind of setup yourself and, if so, what are the benefits of using a queue system?

This is a nice idea. I keep seeing agent tools that focus on the coding part, but the boring task dispatch and handoff layer is where I actually lose time.
