[ 001 — THE FIELD GUIDE ]

From “what if”
to “done, verified.”

Plan it. Set the quality bar. Let your coding agent drive. Check the receipts.

FIRST, AGREE ON THE WORK.

A little planning.
A lot less untangling.

Give your client a repository and a finish line. Ask for reviewable tasks with real dependencies.

Review the plan before launching workers.

Less waiting.

Give your side project a suspiciously competent project manager.

  1. 1
    Open Octopus → Settings → Connections.

    Connect GitHub and your providers.

  2. 2
    Set up your coding client.

    Set up Codex or Claude Code, then reconnect the client.

  3. 3
    Ask it to plan your first project.

    Ask it to use Octopus. Review the plan before launching.

This is a preview, not an Apple-notarized release. macOS may require approval in Privacy & Security after the first launch attempt. Provider accounts and usage charges are yours.

[ 003 — REASONABLE QUESTIONS ]

Before you
grow attached.

Is this another coding agent?

Your coding client coordinates. Task workers implement. Octopus keeps the plan, workflow state, and evidence together.

What runs on my Mac?

Octopus coordinates locally and stores projects on your Mac. Workers run through your provider. Keep Octopus open while driving projects; cloud workers may continue after you quit.

Can I keep manual control?

Yes. Review plans, set approval gates, and choose when to merge. Pausing a Codex goal does not stop running cloud workers; use Octopus task controls for those.

Does it actually have eight arms?

In the illustration, yes. In your project, dependencies and available workers still apply. Biology was easier.
