How Amoeba thinks about work.

Five ideas: workspaces, sessions and lanes, Mission Control, ownership, and the shared Brain.

Workspaces

01

A workspace is one codebase and the people working it.

What it is

  • Your team’s org contains workspaces; each workspace wraps one repository and its members.
  • Roles are granted per workspace, so a person can run the org and still be a viewer in a given workspace.
  • Private by default. Nothing in Amoeba is ever public.

Sessions and lanes

02

One session, one task, one branch, one plan.

The room

  • A session is where a task gets done. It has exactly one branch and one plan, shared by everyone in it.
  • Each participant works in their own lane: their own conversation with their own agent, shown side by side in columns. Everyone sees every lane, live.
  • Watching is a first-class mode: read-only, with your presence visible. There is no invisible lurking.

Mission Control

03

GitHub shows the past. Mission Control shows the present.

The board

  • The default screen. Every live session is a card: the task, its status, who is in it, whose account the current turn uses, progress through the plan, and the files being touched.
  • The alerts strip only ever shows actionable items: an approval waiting, a takeover offer, a collision. Each is one click to resolve.
  • Finished sessions move to History with transcript chunks that remain inside the organization’s configured transcript-retention period, plus the final diff and plan. Other session records can remain after older transcript chunks expire.

Ownership

04

Work belongs to people. Agents just execute it.

Who holds what

  • Work is assigned to people, never to agents. A person holds work; their agent executes it. That is why a teammate without an agent can still hold, hand back and finish work.
  • Every agent turn has exactly one visible sponsor. Before anything runs, the composer says whose account it uses. Nothing ever quietly spends a teammate’s subscription.

The shared Brain

05

What one agent learns, every agent knows.

Memory

  • The Brain keeps short, structured notes pinned to specific files and commits: decisions, gotchas, conventions. Every agent in the workspace reads them, and agents write new ones as they work.
  • When a merge moves the code a note points at, the note is flagged and the next agent working nearby rewrites it. Git keeps the Brain honest, so there is no stale context file problem.
  • Humans can read, edit or retire any memory at any time.
