Coordination by default.
Agents pass work to each other instead of trying to be heroes. Risky moves wait for your nod. Schedules fire whether you’re online or not.
Coordinated, not chaotic
Inside a team, anyone hands to anyone. Across teams, traffic routes through the coordinators by default. Direct routes are an opt-in for power users.
Pause before risky moves
Payments, voice calls, edits to org-wide content, meetings booked with outside guests — agents open an approval card and wait. You approve, reject, snooze or schedule it from one shared approvals queue; the run picks up where it paused.
Proactive, not reactive
Each agent runs on a cron line — Mondays at 9 AM, every morning, end of quarter. Chase invoices, send the digest, open the follow-up tickets without being asked.
Multi-stage runs with checkpoints
Out of the box: Adversarial Review (red-team challenge → author defense → operator decision), Roundtable (multi-agent consensus), Counsel (legal lead → finance + security checks → memo), Full Bench (every specialist weighs in). Start any from the Start a workflow button on your Atlas dashboard.
