Large Projects

The quarter-long project becomes a design you approve and PRs that merge.

Take a large feature from a rough spec to shipped code with a fleet of agents working as one.

Cosmos turns your objective into a repo-grounded design doc, gets it reviewed by your team, then orchestrates a fleet of agents that carries the implementation to merge.

Meet Cosmos

A fleet of agents behind every project.

Agents already write the code, review the PRs, and investigate the incidents. Large projects still stall in everything around the code: settling the design, deciding what to build in what order, and keeping the work aligned with the objective. Cosmos hands that layer to the fleet — the design grounded in your repo, the implementation orchestrated to merge.

Coordination meetings on the critical path

One fleet takes the project from objective to merged.

Cosmos runs the whole arc. The Context Engine distills your starting point into a working understanding, the Planner writes the design doc your team approves, PR Authors take self-contained briefs and implement, and the review fleet verifies every draft against the design before a human ever looks.

Project lifecycleone design, end to end
Intake

Context Engine

Ingests whatever you have — a rough spec, a ticket, a Figma mockup, a doc — and reconciles every claim against the actual repository.

Design · Approval

Project Planner

Drafts one design covering product and technical: goals, architecture, affected components, alternatives, rollout, and test plan — grounded in the real repo.

Human

Reviews and approves the design. Nothing gets implemented until sign-off.

Build · orchestrated

PR Authors

Take self-contained briefs — the design sections, the target repo, the definition of done — then implement, respond to review comments, and fix CI.

Review

Review Fleet

Verifies every draft against the approved design before pinging the team on Slack. Humans make the merge decisions.

How the project runs

Review the design, not the diff.

The design doc is where human judgment enters — you iterate on it with Cosmos, and nothing gets implemented until it's approved. Small PRs were always a workaround for human review bandwidth. With the design already approved and the review fleet on every diff, one coherent change beats several agents stitching together partial context.

The meeting-driven model

Built around coordination

  • Weeks of alignment before the first commit
  • Design lives in heads and stale documents
  • Small PRs stitched together from partial context
Cosmos projects

Built around the design

  • Design doc grounded in the actual repository
  • One human checkpoint: approve the design
  • The fleet carries PRs through CI and review to ready
  • Coherent changes verified against the design

Where projects start

Built for the projects that used to stall.

If the work spans more systems than one ticket can hold, it runs better design-first. Three places teams start.

New features01

From PRD to production.

Feature work that spans several systems. Cosmos ingests the PRD or the mockup, designs across every affected component, and ships it as one coherent, reviewed change.

SCOPE: objective → design → 1 PR
New services02

Greenfield, on your conventions.

Standing up a new service without inventing a new architecture. The Context Engine grounds the design in the patterns and infrastructure you already run, down to the rollout and flagging strategy.

SCOPE: new service · design + rollout plan
Platform capabilities03

Rollouts that respect dependencies.

Capabilities that touch every team. The ticketed path breaks the approved design into dependency-ordered units in Linear or Jira, one PR per unit, with humans wherever audit or rollout requires.

Highly customizable to your workflow.

Talk to Cosmos Advisor to shape the fleet around your team: what the design must cover, who approves it, and how the work ships. Keep your VCS, your CI, and your compliance posture.

One-shot a single coherent PR, or take the ticketed path: dependency-ordered units filed in Linear or Jira, one PR per unit, and humans in the loop wherever audit or rollout requires.
