# Ellipsis

> Ellipsis is a platform for deploying AI software engineers. Define agents in
> a config file, deploy them to your repos, and they review PRs, fix bugs,
> resolve incidents, and automate workflows across GitHub, Slack, Linear,
> Jira, and Sentry.

## Docs

- [Introduction](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs): Deploy AI software engineers from YAML files in your repository.
- [Agents as code](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/concepts/agents-as-code): GitHub is the source of truth; how sync, previews, and deletes work.
- [Analytics](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/concepts/analytics): Team velocity from your GitHub data, measured for humans and bots on the same board.
- [Budgets and spend](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/concepts/budgets): Per-session budgets, trailing spend limits, per-developer limits, and what happens at the cap.
- [The sandbox](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/concepts/sandbox): The isolated cloud environment agents run in, and how to detect it.
- [How a session executes](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/concepts/sessions): The session lifecycle, durable conversations, statuses, steps, and what each session records.
- [Quickstart](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/get-started/quickstart): Install the CLI, run the welcome agent, and read your first result.
- [Your first agent](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/get-started/your-first-agent): Write an agent config from scratch and deploy it from your repository.
- [Attach agent screenshots to pull requests](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/attach-agent-screenshots-to-pull-requests): Persist images past the sandbox with assets, and paste org-gated links on pull requests.
- [Set up your agent's cloud development environment](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/set-up-your-agents-cloud-development-environment): Define the config, bake tools into a cached image, run setup hooks, inject credentials, size compute, scope the GitHub token, and verify it all with a sandbox build from the terminal.
- [Share skills across your team's agents and repositories](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/share-skills-across-your-teams-agents-and-repositories): Load Claude Code skills from your repositories, share one skill across agents, and pull skills from other repos.
- [Spawn an agent session by mentioning @ellipsis](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/spawn-an-agent-session-by-mentioning-ellipsis): Route mentions on GitHub, Slack, and Linear to an agent.
- [Spawn an agent session from the API and CLI](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/spawn-an-agent-session-from-the-api-and-cli): Trigger and watch sessions from the API and CLI.
- [Spawn an agent session in response to Pull Request lifecycle events](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/spawn-an-agent-session-in-response-to-pull-request-lifecycle-events): Start sessions when pull requests open, push, merge, close, or receive reviews and comments.

- [Sync laptop Claude Code sessions into one searchable history](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/guides/sync-laptop-claude-code-sessions-into-one-searchable-history): Ingest Claude Code sessions from developer laptops into Ellipsis for one searchable history, linked pull requests, insights, and laptop-to-cloud handoff.
- [Agent config](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/reference/agent-config): Every field, default, and constraint in agent config YAML files.
- [API reference](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/reference/api): REST API for starting sessions, searching session history, streaming output, and discovering integrations.
- [CLI](https://www.ellipsis.dev/docs/reference/cli): Install and authenticate the agent binary and run agents from your terminal.

## Blog

- [The Future of Software Is the Agent](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/the-future-of-software-is-the-agent): Software engineers don't disappear. They evolve into agent operators — defining behavior, setting constraints, and verifying outcomes instead of writing every line by hand.
- [Maintaining Documentation Without a Human](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/automated-documentation-maintenance): Documentation rots the moment it's written. We built an agent that polls for code changes on a schedule and generates PRs to keep docs in sync.
- [Lessons from 15 Months of Building LLM Agents](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/lessons-from-building-llm-agents): What we learned shipping autonomous coding agents to hundreds of engineering teams. Sandboxing, context management, cost control, and the things that actually matter.
- [Automating Your Daily Standup with Ellipsis](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/automating-your-daily-standup-with-ellipsis): Define a cron agent in YAML that reads yesterday's merged pull requests with a read-only GitHub token and writes a product-level standup every weekday morning.
- [🚨 Launch Alert: Codebase Reports](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/launch-alert-codebase-reports): Select a repository and a delivery window to get a daily, weekly, or monthly digest of what changed in your codebase, delivered via Slack or email.
- [🚨 Launch Alert: Implementation Plans for GitHub/Linear Issues](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/launch-alert-implementation-plans): Tag @ellipsis-dev on any GitHub or Linear issue to get an implementation plan grounded in your codebase and past pull requests.
- [How to Move Your GitHub App to GitLab](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/how-to-move-your-github-app-to-gitlab): GitHub bundles authentication, webhooks, and UI into one Application concept. GitLab splits them apart. What we learned bringing Ellipsis to GitLab.
- [Ellipsis Is Now SOC 2 Type I Certified](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/ellipsis-is-now-soc-ii-type-i-certified): Ellipsis has achieved SOC 2 Type I certification. Reach out for the report, and read about our no-data-persistence policy.
- [Ellipsis Raises a $2M Seed Round](https://www.ellipsis.dev/blog/ellipsis-raises-a-2m-seed-round): Ellipsis gets a LGTM from investors, including Y Combinator. $2M to automate the tedious parts of software engineering.
