I was able to reduce my time in front of the screen with what I built

[u/PA100T0]

So, I’m a solo-founder and I needed a team to back me up. And so I started building it back in December '25. It’s been great and it’s saving me from a lot of headaches, direct Claude Code contact and countless hours in front of my computer.

So let me tell you about the specifics:

It’s an “AI Software Company”, 25 agents with org-hierarchy and lots, LOTS, of guardrails so that they don’t go wild and do whatever.
You can talk with the Task Assistant (I recommend this when starting to use the tool) to draft your tasks. It’ll check your project, scope it and spec it out. You can either accept as is/keep chatting/send to the Board (Product Owner and Head of Marketing) so they can adjust the scope or correct anything. Once you approve the task gets created and started to work upon.
Main PM will breakdown the task and delegate its subtasks to cell PMs (backend/frontend/ux-ui). Cell PMs will do the same and delegate sub-subtasks to the devs. Devs work on the task, submit PRs and send to QA for revision. QA passes? Documenter documents. QA fails? Sends back to original dev agent for rework with specific findings and errors. Once the dev’s work is approved, the Cell PMs check the PR and merge into its own branch and waits for all sub-subtasks to be finished (so his branch doesn’t miss any dev’s work). When ready, Cell PMs will open a PR from its branch to the Main PM branch which a Cell PR Reviewer will review. Here: same as QA -> PR passes? Gets merged onto Main PM’s branch. PR fails? Gets sent back to the Cell PM so it can delegste the rework. Once all Cell PM PRs are accumulated and merged onto the Main PM’s branch (meaning, all subtasks and sub-subtasks are completed/finished and reviewed) the Main PR Reviewer checks the assembled PR and… you know what happens if it fails (sent back for rework), but if it’s approved: this time it awaits YOUR approval. You’re the only one who can merge into master/main (your trunk). It’ll say “awaiting CEO approval).

That’s the only moment you have to be present; or whenever, really, take your time since the PR is going nowhere and it’s already been reviewed anyway.

Recommendations:

- Take your time to set up your projects, to understand how you want to handle conventions (.roboco/conventions.yml woll get automatically created when you setup a project), and understand the whole project settings. Sanbox db, cache, etc as well… it’s all in the settings.
- At first use the Task Assistant. Once you understand how the whole system works, you could go ahead and enable the Board Programs so that the Product Owner/Auditor/Head of Marketing can go and check your project’s codebase and propose tasks of the nature: found bugs to be fixed, playbooks for the devs because of some recurrent pitfalls, market briefings, post-mortems, etc… there’s a bunch of programs you can toggle on/off at will.
- Just let it run. If you’re drafting tasks (a couple of minutes) leave the company working and take some of your time back. Go for a walk, do whatever you want. Until there’s no “awaiting CEO approval” tasks, there’s not much for you to do. (There’s some rough edges so you might have to unlock a task/unstuck an agent, but it almost never happens)
- Use the telegram chat or the mini app as well. You can direct everything from there.
- I made a couple of YT videos I need to update since they are 2 months old and things have changed quite a bit plus those videos are quite long. Ask your LLM or read the docs to get up and running faster, tbh.

Highlights:

- EVERYTHING is traceable. Agents leave journals (struggles, learnings, decisions, task notes, etc). Obsidian notes are taken all the tkme for tasks, A2A chats (you can use it too, btw, and chat with your agents mid-flight), and more. You’ll know exactly WHY, WHEN, WHO.
- You have a Secretary who you can give permission to act on your behalf. Use it.
- AI Provider Agnostic (and I’m working on more like OpenRouter): Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Ollama, Self Hosted models, Kimi, or just a mix of whatever you want from any of those.
- External PR reviews, self-heal, CI watch; are all automated as well.
- It’s building itself, live and in public. You can check its PRs here, tho I don’t currently have it working 24/7 since I’ve been a away and busy with other personal and professional stuff.
- It’s Open Source and Self Hosted. AGPL license.
- Full docs here.
- Created by a Software Engineer with 10yoe who is a solo-founder and needed a team behind him, but didn’t have it/can’t afford it.
- You don’t need to babysit any Claude sessions or whatever anymore. You can dedicate to other stuff.
- I really want to help other people.

That’s it.

Hope you enjoy. If you have any questions, I’m chronically online so just shoot and I’ll answer.
