- 2 weekdays
- 3 weekly
- 2 monthly
Every plan, Free included, opens the repo and an install prompt built for the employees you pick.
What the Chief of Staff does
As soon as several employees run on schedules, oversight becomes a role of its own. The Chief of Staff reads the fleet state and run records, distinguishes an intentional pause from a silent stop, and prepares a dossier for the problem that needs attention.
Decision and metric reviews connect that operational picture to your business priorities. You get a brief with the evidence and next decision, rather than having to open every employee folder to find out whether the week is moving.
Best fit: Founders operating several AI Employees, teams coordinating a growing scheduled workflow, and providers supervising a client employee fleet.
The work you can review
- Fleet audits and a reconciled operating picture
- Fault dossiers with evidence and a likely cause
- Decision briefs and a decision register
- Metrics and strategy reviews against your charter

Writing your morning brief
One page, one fix, thirty seconds to read
Your control: It observes the other employees and does not rewrite their files. Oversight identifies a decision; it does not grant itself permission to change another role or release a channel.
The 7 scheduled routines
The cadence is part of the role. Each routine owns a defined piece of work.
Fleet reconcile
WeekdaysWalks every AI Employee on this machine, strictly read only, and classifies each routine as running, stopped loudly, stopped silently, or paused.
Fault dossier
WeekdaysTakes the top open fault and turns it into a page you can act on in a minute, ending in one paste-ready correction line and the exact path it belongs in.
Market sweep
WeeklyWorks its own watchlist through one contiguous browser phase and captures one dated observation per real change, with a verbatim quote and the URL.
Metrics review
WeeklyScores the fleet and the business with a source beside every number, citing the Employee that owns a metric rather than recomputing it.
Decision brief
WeeklyPicks three moves, argues both sides of each with a citation in every clause, and argues against its own top recommendation last.
Charter and fleet audit
MonthlyFirst run researches the business, discovers the Employees on this machine, writes the map and the charter, and registers seven jobs.
Decision review
MonthlyFolds the decision ledger, scores its own judgement against the metric files that measured it, and retires a move nobody ever accepted.
Set up the first week
Confirm the charter and which employees are in scope. Check that intentional pauses and run records are readable, then review the first brief for useful priorities and enough evidence to act.

Should I install the Chief of Staff before my first employee?
Its strongest use is supervising an existing employee fleet. Start with a role that covers real work, then add oversight when coordinating several routines becomes a task itself.
Can it repair the other employees automatically?
It reads their state and prepares fault dossiers. It does not change their files or grant their releases.
Is the Chief of Staff open source?
Yes. This role is released under the MIT license. Every Club plan, Free included, opens the repository and the install prompt builder. Your AI agent subscription and any connected service costs are separate.
