Platform

Atlas documentation audit trail and staleness tracking (coming 2026)

Docs Ledger is an upcoming Atlas capability that will track when docs and folders were created and nudge you when documentation goes stale or describes code that was never built.

Atlas call transcript extraction and filing (coming 2026)

Intake is an upcoming Atlas capability that will turn call transcripts from Fireflies and other notetakers into filed commitments, decisions, and facts, learning where you keep each kind of note.

Atlas decision tracking and open-decision reminders (coming 2026)

Decision Ledger is an upcoming Atlas capability that will surface decisions you need to make and forgot were open, and record the ones you settled along with their rationale.

Atlas per-client context profiles for agencies (coming 2026)

Client Context Profiles is an upcoming Atlas capability that will load the right voice, people, and constraints for a client the moment you open that client's repository.

Atlas automated work log and status summaries (coming 2026)

Work Narrative is an upcoming Atlas capability that will turn your sessions, commits, and notes into a plain-language log of what you did, ready for a status update.

Atlas client commitment tracking, promised vs delivered (coming 2026)

Commitment Tracking is an upcoming Atlas capability that will reconcile what you told a client you would do against what is actually in the repository, so nothing promised slips.

Atlas coding convention drift detection (coming 2026)

Convention Drift is an upcoming Atlas capability that will reconcile the coding standards you wrote down against what your code actually does, and flag new violations as they appear.

Slack copy messaging for AI coding sessions in Atlas (2026)

Atlas formats assistant messages into Slack mrkdwn so code reviews, implementation plans, and debugging notes paste cleanly into team channels.

Gmail copy messaging for AI coding updates in Atlas (2026)

Atlas creates clean email-ready text from assistant messages so technical summaries, status updates, and code explanations paste clearly into Gmail.

Atlas knowledge base for reusable team context (2026)

The Atlas knowledge base keeps reusable product, codebase, and workflow context available to AI-assisted development so teams stop rewriting it for every prompt.

What is a terminal-native AI coding agent? (2026)

A terminal-native AI coding agent runs in your shell, reads your repo, and plans and applies changes as diffs. Here is what that means, using Atlas as the example.

AI codebase search: finding code by meaning in Atlas (2026)

Atlas finds code by meaning using hybrid semantic and keyword search fused with reciprocal rank fusion, with AST-aware chunking and optional local embeddings.

How Atlas keeps AI edits safe with permission controls (2026)

Atlas gates every tool call against allow, ask, and deny rules and shows a unified diff before writing, so automated edits stay auditable and under your control.

Atlas and Model Context Protocol (MCP) support (2026)

Atlas connects to Model Context Protocol servers over stdio, SSE, and HTTP and exposes their tools to the agent, so you can bring your own tools and surfaces.

Keep your code private: local embeddings in Atlas (2026)

Atlas can build its codebase index with local Ollama embeddings, keeping your source off third-party servers while still searching code by meaning.
