    Plan and deliver

    • consoleA web console for everything your agents do
    • skiftA task graph agents and people share
    • millA runner that delivers tasks as merged changes
    • knowledgeIn designA memory agents can ask, with sources

    Fence it in

    • croftIn designSandboxes and virtual machines for agent work
    • gatewayIn designA proxy that holds credentials so agents don't

    Keep it maintained

    • almanacEarlyAutomatic repair for broken dependency updates
    • fallowIn designDisk cleanup for what agents leave behind

Decisions
  • Store the DAG in plain PostgreSQL tables, not a graph database
  • Connect-RPC is the only door, with identity resolved by transport
  • Artifacts are content-addressed: managed blobs plus external references
  • Authorization by embedded OPA and Rego policy
  • Align with A2A: a skift node maps to many A2A tasks, one per lease
  • Provenance is not client-assertable, and the store never confers authority
  • Core tech stack: Go, buf, sqlc, goose, pgx, Ginkgo
  • Short enum names are the JSON wire form, through one derived codec
  • The default gate policy is a notification channel, not a safety boundary
  • Parking work is a hold on the graph, not a status and not orchestrator configuration
Plans
  • Claims and reads select nodes by one filter, across every project
  • The built skift is published to GHCR on every push to main
  • Sprint: prove the bet
Research
  • METR and Redwood investigation of the OpenAI / Hugging Face incident
Retrospectives
  • Retrospective: the first build
