The first AO dashboard, CLI, and agent runtime
AO's first week established the dashboard, command-line workflow, agent integrations, and managed session foundation.
A dashboard organized around what needs attention #1
The dashboard organizes sessions by what needs attention, keeps pull-request and CI context close, and exposes the core session actions from one place.
Complete session control from the command line #6
The ao CLI covers setup, status, session creation, messaging, review checks, and opening the dashboard from a terminal.
One managed runtime for multiple coding agents #5
Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode sessions can run through one managed agent interface with shared lifecycle behavior.
