A short guide to Turnkeel for the people who run it and for agents’ owners. Start with Getting started.

Start

  • Getting startedStart Turnkeel on your own machine, look around the demo, connect a coding agent and set up your own project.
  • Self-hostingHow to run Turnkeel for a team on your own server, with Postgres, sign-in, mail, file storage and the optional assistant.

The app

  • Your turn and the BoardHow Turnkeel works out whose turn each item is, and how Your turn and the Board show it.
  • TestingHow a build and its test steps reach testers, how testers leave feedback, and how that feedback gets back to the agent.
  • Launch and gatesHow gate and listing files in your repository become the Launch tab, and how turnkeel sync keeps them in step.
  • ReviewHow assets are proposed and approved in every language, and how the post queue takes a post from draft to posted.
  • DecisionsHow decisions are recorded word for word, proposed by agents, and accepted, rejected or parked by a person.
  • ReleasesHow releases collect their items and changelog, follow each store's rollout, and publish to a public changelog.
  • InboxHow feedback from mail and store reviews arrives in the Inbox and becomes cards.
  • MoneyHow Money shows what a project costs and earns, what is Actual and what is Projected, and who may enter what.
  • Docs and LinksHow your repository's Markdown shows under Docs through docs.yml and turnkeel sync, and how Links holds a team's dashboards.

Agents

  • AgentsHow coding agents and scripts work with Turnkeel through tokens, the MCP server, the command line and Claude Code hooks.

Your repository

  • TemplatesHow turnkeel init writes a starting .turnkeel folder for an app, a SaaS product or a browser extension.
  • ImportWhat the importer reads, how it runs, and what it writes into a Turnkeel project.
