A hosted home for Fossil repos. Wiki, tickets, forum, code — one SQLite file, one URL, one source of truth. Built for small-but-serious teams and the AI agents that work alongside them.

Why Fossil
Fossil bundles version control, issues, wiki, forum, and unversioned attachments into a single self-contained SQLite file. No microservice sprawl. No "lose your data when you switch hosts" panic. No twelve-tab dashboard for what should be one project.
We're not chasing a 5,000-engineer monorepo. We're building the best home on the internet for the kind of project where the codebase, the spec, the bug list, and the design discussion all belong in the same place — owned by you, not a SaaS quarterly roadmap.
Issues, wiki, forum, tickets — all live in the repo. No "lose your data when you switch hosts" panic. Pull, push, sync between hosts; everything travels.
Code, tickets, wiki, and discussion in one queryable SQLite database. An agent reads the whole project context with SELECT * — not 47 GraphQL calls and a rate-limit. RAG and MCP become trivial.
Honest, immutable history. Real audit trail without the lie that is force-push. Trunk-based or branch-heavy — both feel native.
Worker + R2 + D1 territory. We pass the savings on. Free tier means free tier — not "free for 14 days then we deprecate it."
Don't like our service? fossil clone the URL. You walk away with a perfect mirror — issues, wiki, forum, the lot. Then run our omnibus on a $5 box. Your repo, your call.
Fossil has run mission-critical projects for 15+ years — including SQLite itself, the most-deployed database on the planet. This isn't a science experiment.
self-host
The omnibus — Fossil + a thin web layer + sane defaults — is shipping today at fossilrepo.io. Drop it on a $5 box, point a domain at it, you're done. No Postgres, no Redis, no sidecars. One binary, one SQLite file.
