Custom AI coding agents per project

Volath lets you build custom AI coding agents per project. Agents give the AI a role, Skills are playbooks it follows, and Squads let a leader agent hand each step to the right member.

Benefits

What you get

Agents

  • Give the AI a clear role for the work on a ticket.
  • Use a different model for a role when it makes sense.

Skills

  • Write a team rule once and reuse it on many tickets.
  • Keep the AI consistent with your conventions.

Squads

  • Split a ticket across specialised agents.
  • Agents never all run at once: one runs at a time.

How it works

How it works

It runs on your own machine. Your code, tickets and settings live in a local SQLite database, or in your own MySQL or MariaDB.

Agents

  1. Open Agents in the top bar under AI, with a project selected.

  2. Create an agent with its instructions and, optionally, its own model.

  3. Give it to a ticket under Options › Agent, and its instructions go in front of every AI run on that ticket.

Skills

  1. Open Skills in the top bar under AI, with a project selected.

  2. Attach a skill to an agent or to a ticket.

  3. The AI follows the skill on that work.

Squads

  1. Open Squads in the top bar under AI, with a project selected.

  2. Create a squad with a leader agent and members.

  3. Give a ticket to the squad. The leader reads the work and hands each step to the right member, one at a time.

Example

A review checklist, a migrations playbook or commit conventions.
