What Radial is

Radial is a cloud issue tracker designed around command-line use, with a web app, CLI, REST API, and MCP server. Work can be organized in list, board, calendar, backlog, and cycle views with grouping and filtering. Users create and manage issues through keyboard shortcuts or terminal commands, then search issues, comments, and projects. The MCP server provides 41 agent tools with read-only, triage-only, or full-access scopes. Radial integrates with GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, including enterprise, self-managed, and data-center versions. It links issues to branches, commits, and pull requests, updates status from pull-request activity, and closes issues on merge. The CLI imports issues and related data from Linear or Jira; workspace data exports as JSON or CSV. Single-file HTML prototypes can be attached and shared through authenticated sandbox previews. The Radial plan costs $50 a year, billed annually per user, with unlimited issues, projects, teams, and integrations plus engineer priority support. The REST API is limited to 1 request per second.
