About YakStack

### Tagline **Capture detours. Finish the mission.** ### Full Description YakStack is a local-first Mac app for developers and knowledge workers who begin with one clear task and suddenly find themselves several prerequisites deep. Capture every unexpected side quest as a branch in a visual yak-shaving tree. Keep your original mission visible, follow the active path, and complete, park, drop, or collapse detours without losing track of what you were actually trying to finish. When a side quest is resolved, YakStack guides you back to the nearest unfinished step. At the end of each session, it creates a clear, playful summary showing how many detours you encountered, what you completed, how deep the journey went, and whether the original mission survived. Everything stays private, offline, and on your Mac.
