Function cockpit

Engineering

Agents build, test and document. Engineers own architecture and release.

Autonomy0% / 80%

Phase: Phase 3 — Functional orchestration

Run the intent-to-release graph as a governed system: decomposition, code generation, testing, documentation, vulnerability detection and deployment preparation are agent work; product intent, architecture and production release remain human.

CoS agent: Engineering Chief of Staff

Every agent, its ceiling, and its escalation path

Agent roster

Every agent working Engineering

Name, tier, autonomy level, the ceiling it operates under, and the human it escalates to. If an agent is not on this list, it is not running in production.
