# Solo developers

A small example setup for planning and shipping on your own.

## Who it's for

You build and ship one product on your own, often with an AI agent doing a lot of the coding. You want a short list of what's next, not a project-management system.

## Recommended setup

Here's RollCall set up for one person:

| Piece | Example |
|---|---|
| Project | RollCall |
| Product context | Friend groups complete a daily photo challenge to keep their streak alive |
| Areas | Challenges & Feed, Punishments & Streaks, Notifications. Add more when tasks keep landing in the same place. |
| Releases | MVP → 1.0.0 → 1.1.0 → 1.2.0 |
| First tasks | The handful of changes that make up the next release |

Use version numbers for releases. They read in order and match what you'd put in an app store or changelog. One release is active; ideas you're not ready for stay in the Backlog.

## A week in the loop

1. Open the [dashboard](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/dashboard). **What's Next** puts the most useful task first, and **User Signals** lists what's waiting for review.
2. Hand the task to your agent, or work it yourself. A [connected agent](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/connect-your-agent) moves it to In Progress, then marks it Done with a summary.
3. Review new [signals](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/signals) once or twice a week. Make a task for anything worth doing; it goes to the Backlog unless you pick a release.
4. When the active release is done, mark it complete, publish its notes and set the next one active.

## Let your agent close the loop

With an agent connected, you don't have to update the plan by hand. It starts the task when it begins and marks it Done with a summary of what changed when it finishes.

## Features that matter most

- [Product](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/product): a few lines your agent reads before it starts work.
- [Releases](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/releases): one active release keeps the scope small.
- [Connect your agent](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/connect-your-agent): let Claude Code, Codex or Cursor pick up tasks and report back. Free includes it.
- [Feedback Portal](https://getfrostbyte.dev/docs/feedback-portal-overview): a public page for bug reports once you have testers. Free includes bug reports.
