Best for
  • Developers and creators who want to use AI multi-agent collaboration for complex tasks (like business planning, technical solutions, content creation).
  • Teams that prefer no-code YAML workflows over writing Python code.
  • Users who want to leverage existing AI subscriptions (like Claude, Gemini, Copilot) to reduce costs.
  • Engineering teams scaling AI coding agents while controlling spend
  • Platform teams that need auditable, rollback-aware agent execution records
  • Organizations using multiple agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini) under one governed flow
Not for
  • Deep customization scenarios requiring fine-grained control over each agent's internal logic.
  • Enterprises with strict data privacy requirements, as some API calls require network access.
  • Scenarios relying on small local models (e.g., 8B level) for high-quality outputs, as multi-role handoffs may amplify drift.
  • Developers who just want a simple code-completion helper without run governance
  • Teams unwilling to accept local JSONL run records with HMAC signing
  • Environments without a supported adapter (Claude/Codex/Gemini CLIs, direct provider, or verifier-only)
Required permissions
  • When executing workflows, it calls configured LLM APIs or local CLIs, requiring network access and API permissions.
  • It can read/write local file system (e.g., read input files, save outputs to `ao-output/` directory).
  • The MCP server itself only provides stdio communication and does not actively access external systems.
  • Read/write access to the configured repo root (writable scope restrictable via --allow-path/--deny-path)
  • Ability to invoke the chosen agent CLI (Claude/Codex/Gemini, etc.) and its underlying model account
  • Local disk writes for run records, receipts, and share outputs (share/run-receipt., etc.)
  • Execution of user-configured verifier commands (e.g. npm test)
Risks and side effects
  • LLM outputs may be inaccurate or hallucinated; acceptance criteria can mitigate but not fully avoid.
  • When using third-party APIs, ensure API keys are securely stored to prevent leakage.
  • Workflows with human approval nodes require user intervention, otherwise the flow pauses.
  • Verifier commands are executed; poorly chosen verifier commands carry security risk despite preflight policy checks
  • Cost and token figures may be estimates (labeled with provenance) and should not be treated as settled accounting
  • Receipt integrity must be verified before use as trustworthy evidence; missing rollback evidence is flagged as EVIDENCE_BOUNDARY
  • Policy defaults come from martin.config.yaml and can be overridden by CLI flags; misconfiguration can loosen safety boundaries
