I built an open‑source team chat that writes your daily standup (and lets you bring your own Claude)

说明与用途

Forma Chat 是一款自托管团队聊天工具，能够自动生成每日站会，并支持使用自有 API 密钥或连接的 Claude 进行 AI 交互，具备强大的隐私保护模型。

问题

Teams pay per seat for chat, then for a standup bot, then for an AI add‑on. The author wanted a single self‑hosted solution that combines chat, standup drafting, and optional AI.

结果

Forma Chat delivers a unified, self‑hosted chat, standup drafting, and optional AI agent functionality with strong privacy controls, eliminating separate paid services.

工作流

• Deploy Forma Chat by cloning the repo, running make setup build, and serve; create owner account via one‑time link; optionally run demo.mjs for a populated workspace.
• Use the web interface to create channels, DMs, and tasks; tasks are recorded as events (created, started, finished, blocked, commented).
• Forma automatically drafts daily standups per user from their own events: Done, Next, Blockers.
• Submit the draft to post the standup; unsubmitted users appear as "No update yet".
• Configure AI agents by adding an Anthropic/OpenAI key or connecting a Claude instance via MCP; agents answer in threads respecting channel read permissions.
• Use the React/TypeScript client embedded in the binary for a single‑file deployment.

证据

Most teams pay per seat for chat. Then they pay again for a standup bot. Then again for an AI add‑on.

I built Forma Chat: open‑source (Apache‑2.0) team chat that runs on your own server, as one Go binary with a SQLite file.

Daily standups that draft themselves

No model is involved, so it's free, fast and explainable.
