DeciDesk

Board and council decision-making on your Nextcloud. Agendas, council dossiers, motions, votes, an audit trail that understands the Wet open overheid. For municipal councils, executive boards, supervisory and management boards.

Decidesk is an open-source decision-making app for the Nextcloud workspace. It runs the full governance cycle in one place: scheduling meetings, building agendas, submitting motions and amendments, voting, publishing minutes, and tracking action items to completion. Workflows are configurable for legislative bodies, associations, corporate boards, management teams, and citizen-participation panels. All meetings, motions, and decisions live as typed OpenRegister objects with an audit trail, and a built-in AI chat companion exposes those records over MCP. Released under EUPL-1.2 and maintained by Conduction since 2019.
What it does

From agenda to decision, in one install.

DeciDesk covers the full decision-making chain: collect agenda items, build dossiers, submit motions, record votes, publish decisions. All on typed registers with an audit trail that makes Woo compliance much simpler later.

Agendas with dossier creation.

One dossier per agenda item: official advice, council documents, presentations, answered questions. All versioned, all in OpenRegister.

Motions and amendments.

Submit, link to an agenda item, record votes. Per faction or per individual, configurable per board.

Voting, tracked in the audit trail.

Voice or by show of hands; outcome, individual votes, abstentions. All in a tamper-evident log.

Decisions as published documents.

DocuDesk generates the formal decision from vote results and council discussion. OpenCatalogi publishes it on yourmunicipality.nl/decisions with citation-stable URLs.

Three ways DeciDesk earns its place

Minutes, decisions, action items, all linked.

Scroll the cards. Each pins as you reach it; the next slides up to cover.

Run the meeting

Agenda, minutes, motions, votes, in one app.

DeciDesk owns the full board-meeting cycle. Agenda packs go out, minutes get drafted live, motions and votes are recorded. The audit trail satisfies the Wet open overheid out of the box.

Linked to its source

Every decision points back to its register row.

A motion to award a permit links to the permit-application register. A budget vote links to the budget-line register. Decisions stop being free-floating documents.

In every queue

Action items land in the assignee's MyDash.

Every action item from a meeting becomes a row in someone's work queue. No separate task tracker, no email handoff. The next meeting reads its predecessor's status from the same registers.

How DeciDesk plugs into the workspace

The meeting cycle, end to end, in Nextcloud.

Three integration paths that put the meeting, the motions, and the published minutes inside the apps your council and board members already use.

Schedule the meeting in Calendar, attendees pulled from Contacts. The dossier opens straight from the calendar event; minutes sync back into a Note that everyone with access can read.

AI chat tools

What DeciDesk adds to the workspace AI.

Install DeciDesk and the workspace chat gets five governance tools. The AI can list your open action items, browse meetings, open a dossier, start a meeting from a calendar event, or capture a follow-up, all under the caller's own role and auth.

List open action items

Incomplete action items assigned to the caller, or all visible items. Scope mine / all, capped at 50.

List recent meetings

Recent meetings for the caller, newest first. Optional status filter: scheduled, in-progress, or closed.

Get meeting details

Full dossier for one meeting: agenda, participants, action items, decisions, attached files.

Start meeting

Move a scheduled meeting into in-progress. Requires chair or admin role; logged in the audit trail.

Add action item

Create a new action item under a meeting, assigned to a participant, with optional due date.
