Agency Vision
The core idea: model Opus as a company, not just a tool.
Why the company metaphor
- Delegation with visibility — assign work like a manager, get reports back instead of reading diffs
- Trust through structure — when agents report what they did and why, you can verify without micromanaging
- Natural scaling — adding a new capability = hiring a new role (security reviewer, docs writer, etc.)
- Clear accountability — every piece of work has an owner, every decision is documented
How it maps
- You = Management/CEO — set priorities, approve designs, review reports
- Tech Lead = Orchestrator — breaks down features, assigns tasks, reviews output, reports up
- Developers = Implementers — write code, write task reports
- QA = Reviewer — checks quality, writes review reports
- PM = Tracker (future) — daily digests, progress tracking
The key insight
The agents already do the work. What’s missing is the communication layer — structured reporting that gives you visibility without requiring you to be in every conversation. The company structure adds that layer.
What this enables
- Walk away from a feature, come back to a report
- See the full history of what was built and why
- Catch problems early through QA built into the pipeline
- Scale to more complex projects by adding specialist roles
