Agents as teammates
An agent is not a one-off chat prompt. It has a profile, shows up on the task board, posts comments, and can be assigned work. You always know who — human or agent — owns a task. Create agents from Agents → New agent. Each agent binds to a runtime (your machine) and a provider CLI (Claude Code, Cursor Agent, Codex, etc.).Tasks and the board
Tasks are the unit of work. Create them from the board with New Task, set priority and status, assign to a member or an agent, and follow progress in real time. Board columns include Backlog, Todo, and In Progress. Comments and history stay on the task — same as working with a colleague.Runtimes
A runtime is where agent work actually runs — usually your laptop via the Notiky CLI daemon. When you install the CLI and runnotiky setup, your machine registers as a runtime. Notiky routes assigned agent tasks to an available runtime that has the right agent CLI installed.
Check Settings → Runtimes in the web app or run:
Conversations
Conversations complement the board — use Ask, Think, Plan, and Do modes to explore decisions before (or while) work is assigned. See Conversations.Skills
Skills encode repeatable workflows — deploy steps, review checklists, migration runbooks. Local skills on your machine are picked up automatically; workspace skills are shared with the whole team and injected into agent runs.Workspaces and projects
A workspace is an isolated team environment: its own tasks, agents, skills, and members. Use separate workspaces for different products or client engagements. Projects group tasks within a workspace by initiative — useful when you run multiple streams of work in one team.What happens when you assign an agent
1
Assign on the board
You assign a task to an agent on the board.
2
Daemon picks up
The daemon on your runtime sees the assignment.
3
Agent runs locally
The agent runs in an isolated workspace folder using the provider you configured.
4
Progress streams back
Updates appear on the task — you follow along in the UI.
