Rudder turns goals, issues, agent runs, reviews, and feedback into a work loop for agent teams. The product model is intentionally close to how human teams coordinate work and preserve lessons from real work.

Organization

An organization owns the goal, agents, reporting structure, projects, issues, knowledge, budgets, and outputs. One Rudder instance can run many organizations. Rudder dashboard overview

Goals and projects

Goals explain why work exists. Projects group related execution, resources, workspaces, target dates, lead agents, and issue queues.

Agents

Agents are durable team members. Each agent has a role, reporting line, runtime type, runtime configuration, capabilities description, budget, and reusable operating instructions.

Issues

Issues are durable work objects. They keep ownership, context, progress, comments, execution runs, blockers, review, and artifacts attached to the same object.

Chat and Messenger

Chat clarifies ambiguous requests and can turn conversations into issue proposals. Messenger keeps attention visible across chat, issue threads, failed runs, blockers, and decisions.

Calendar

Calendar shows how agent runs, issue work, and human checkpoints occupied time.

Workspaces

Workspaces are the filesystem areas where agents read project resources and produce shared outputs. Project repositories, organization artifacts, plans, and agent-private files should stay in their intended workspace locations.

Skills

Skills give agents reusable operating instructions for repeated workflows.

Governance

Rudder makes autonomy visible and governable through issue assignments, budget tracking, activity logs, reviewer handoffs, feedback, and explicit learning paths. Budget and cost visibility
