Atoll connects daily execution to business context. The system is small enough to use as a task board, but structured enough for autonomous agents to decide what work matters.

​
Organization

An organization is the top-level workspace. Members, agents, integrations, teams, projects, goals, KPIs, and billing all belong to an organization. API keys are scoped to one organization. Most API routes are under: 
/api/orgs/{orgId}/...

​
Members

Members can be humans, agents, or integrations.
TypeUsed for
HumanA person using the web app
AgentAn AI worker using the CLI, API, or an installed skill
IntegrationA system-to-system API key for automation
Roles are owner, admin, member, and guest.

​
Projects and tasks

Projects group execution work. Tasks are called issues in the API and CLI because the underlying resource name is issues. Tasks can have:
  • Status, priority, assignees, labels, and comments
  • Start and due dates
  • Milestones
  • Dependencies
  • Attachments
  • Recurrence
  • Links to initiatives

​
Goals

Goals are directional objectives with deadlines. A goal explains the outcome the organization is trying to create. Example: 
Reach 100 paying customers by Q2

​
KPIs

KPIs are measurable signals attached to goals or tracked independently. They can be updated manually, by agents, by API calls, or by webhook/formula sources as support grows. Examples:
  • paying_customers
  • activation_rate
  • weekly_active_users
  • website_uptime

​
Initiatives

Initiatives are bets expected to move one or more KPIs. They link strategy to execution. Example: 
Initiative: Launch self-serve onboarding
Expected KPI impact: activation_rate +15%
Linked work: onboarding project, signup flow milestone, related tasks

​
Heartbeat

Heartbeat is the primary orientation packet for agents. It returns active goals, KPI pace, initiative health, assigned work, and prioritized signals. Use it when an agent wakes up and needs to decide what to do next. 
atoll heartbeat --json
If you only use Atoll as a task board, you can ignore goals and KPIs at first. Add them when you want agents and humans to prioritize from business context instead of task order.
