From Invitation to a Working Workspace in One Step

Summary

Joining Effigate from an invitation is now a single step. Click the link, choose a company name and a password, and your account and company are created together — already set up with a team, board, and starting structure — and you land straight on your dashboard.

What You Gain

Getting a new team onto a tool often means a gap between "we're interested" and "we're actually working in it," filled with setup steps someone has to push through. Now that gap is gone: picking a company name and a password is the entire setup. There's no separate configuration step afterward — roles, a default team, board columns, and document categories are already in place, so the first thing you see after signing in is a working Effigate, not an empty shell waiting to be configured.

How It Works

  • One form, one step. Choose your company name and password; everything else is created for you.
  • Ready immediately. Default roles, team, board, and categories are already set up when you land on your dashboard.
  • Safe to send. Invitation links expire after two weeks and work only once, so an old link can't be reused later.

Where to Find It

Invitations are sent by the Effigate team when a workspace is requested. If you're waiting on access, no setup is required on your end beyond the link you'll receive.

Effigate Now Organizes Every Account by Company

Summary

Effigate now organizes everything — teams, projects, tasks, agents, invoices, expenses, and HR records — under your company's own account. Each company's workspace is its own self-contained space, with its own settings, numbering, and access, separate from any other company using Effigate.

What You Gain

Before this change, workspace-level settings and numbering sat closer to the individual rather than the company, which made it awkward for a growing team to present one consistent setup to everyone working under it. Now your company owns its own workspace end to end: its own name and AI context, its own task numbering, its own invoice numbers and expense categories, its own leave types and board defaults. If your company runs two teams side by side, both work inside the same clean, independent account instead of improvising around settings meant for a single team.

How It Works

  • Your own workspace identity. Company name, AI context, and task numbering are set once and apply everywhere your team works.
  • Independent numbering and defaults. Invoices, expense categories, leave types, and board columns start from your company's own sequence, not shared with anyone else.
  • Desktop app and CLI access are company-bound. A connected device or CLI session only ever works inside the company it was set up for.
  • New companies start ready to go. A fresh company account comes with a default team, board, roles, and expense categories already in place — nothing to configure before your first task.

Where to Find It

This applies automatically to every Effigate account; existing workspaces kept all their data and continued working without any setup. There's nothing to turn on.

A Public Website to Explore Effigate Before You Sign Up

Summary

Effigate now has a public website, separate from the signed-in app, for anyone who wants to understand the product before creating an account. It covers what Effigate does for different teams, shows real use cases, and gives new visitors a straightforward way to ask for access.

What You Gain

Previously, there was nowhere to send a colleague, a prospect, or your own manager who wanted to understand Effigate without already having a login — the product only existed behind sign-in. Now there's a proper front door: a homepage that explains what Effigate does, dedicated pages for how Engineering, Finance, Operations, Sales & Marketing, and Support teams each use it, and a use-cases page you can filter by scenario. If you're already signed in, visiting the site still takes you straight into your workspace, so nothing changes for existing customers.

How It Works

  • Solutions by team — five pages tailored to how each function actually uses Effigate day to day.
  • Filterable use cases — browse real scenarios instead of a generic feature list.
  • A waitlist with a live signup count — request access and see how many others already have.
  • About, Brand, and Privacy pages — the background information teams ask for before adopting a new tool.

Where to Find It

The site is live now at the Effigate domain for anyone not yet signed in. No account or configuration is needed to browse it.

Retried agent runs now start immediately

Summary

When an agent run stalled and was automatically retried, the retry could sit waiting rather than starting right away, and the task could end up in a different place on the board depending on exactly how the failure happened. Both are fixed.

What You Gain

A retry that starts promptly instead of waiting around gets your work moving again faster. And a consistent landing spot on the board means a recovered task behaves the same way regardless of what caused it to need retrying, so you don't have to remember two different outcomes for what should be the same situation.

How It Works

Retries now start immediately rather than waiting for the next routine check. A task recovering from this kind of failure now always lands in the same working column, while a task that was already blocked or deliberately parked is left exactly where it was.

Where to Find It

This applies automatically to every agent run — no setup needed.

Project Documents: filters, multi-select, and merge

Summary

A project running for a while accumulates documents fast, and until now the Documents tab was one long, unfiltered list. It now has category and visibility filters, multi-select with bulk delete, and a merge tool that combines several documents into one.

What You Gain

Scrolling a long, flat list to find one document, or to clean up several that had grown redundant, wasted time that should have gone into the actual work. Now you can narrow the list in a couple of clicks, act on several documents at once, and consolidate overlapping ones instead of deleting and rewriting them from scratch.

Picture a project with a dozen scattered reference documents built up over months. With filters, you can narrow instantly to just the ones marked for agent use. With multi-select, you can tidy up outdated ones in one pass. And with merge, three overlapping documents become one clear document, with its content and visibility preserved — so tidying up never risks quietly losing information an agent was relying on.

How It Works

  • Filter by category and visibility. Narrow the list by document category and by whether a document is always available to agents or only fetched on demand. A search box matches titles and summaries, and a Clear button resets everything.
  • Select several documents at once. Tick documents individually or select all within your current filter.
  • Delete in bulk, with a confirmation step before anything is removed.
  • Merge into one. Combine selected documents into a single document — you choose its title and category, and you see exactly what it will contain before confirming. A merged document stays visible to agents if any of its parts were, so merging can never accidentally hide information an agent depended on.
  • A more accurate token estimate. The figure showing how much of an agent's context your always-available documents use now reflects exactly what agents actually receive, rather than counting documents that don't reach them at all.

Where to Find It

Open any project's Documents tab to use filters, multi-select and merge — available now on every project.

Decisions: one page for everything waiting on you

Summary

Everything that needed a decision from you used to be scattered across the app — a question buried in one task's comments, a ready pull request on another, a failed run somewhere in the Inbox. A new Decisions page gathers all of it into one ranked list, and keeps it current automatically.

What You Gain

Answering "what actually needs me right now" used to mean checking several different places and hoping you hadn't missed one. That kind of scattered attention is exactly how small blockers sit unresolved for longer than they should, quietly slowing down whatever depends on them.

Now there's a single place: agent questions that stopped a run, failed runs that couldn't recover on their own, agents waiting on a local directory, pull requests ready to merge, and blocked tasks — all in one list, ranked by how stuck each one is. Clicking an item opens the task directly so you can act without navigating away.

How It Works

  • Items are ordered by urgency: stalled work waiting on you comes first, followed by finished work ready to be released, then the rest.
  • There's no dismiss button — an item leaves the list only when the real situation is resolved, wherever that happens: here, on the board, or on GitHub.
  • The list updates itself both ways: new items appear as they arise, and resolved ones disappear immediately, moving you straight to the next item if you were working through the list.
  • It sits alongside the Inbox but serves a different purpose — the Inbox shows what already happened, while Decisions shows only what is still waiting.

Where to Find It

Open the Decisions page from the main navigation — available now for every account.

Local project directories now reach the right machine

Summary

A correctly configured local project directory could still go unused if you had more than one machine connected under the same account — agents would fall back to a fresh checkout instead, sometimes failing outright if the project's other resource needed access the fallback machine didn't have. It now always reaches the specific machine it was set up for.

What You Gain

If you run more than one connected machine — say, a Mac and a Windows machine both set up for the same account — this previously meant Effigate Command Center couldn't reliably tell which one actually held your local directory, and could pick the wrong one. Now the exact machine that claimed the task is the one that's used, every time, regardless of operating system.

Where to Find It

This fix applies automatically — no changes needed to your existing local directory setup.

Installing the command line tool got far simpler, Windows included

Summary

Setting up the Effigate CLI on a new machine used to require developer tooling most teams don't want to maintain just to run a small command-line helper. It now installs as a ready-to-run download, and Windows machines — previously unsupported — now work properly too.

What You Gain

Before this change, every machine you wanted to set up needed a working developer toolchain installed, just to get one small CLI running — overhead that had nothing to do with the actual work you wanted to do. On Windows, there was no supported install path at all, so teams running Windows machines simply couldn't use the CLI.

Now setup is a single download with a built-in verification step, and the only requirement on the target machine is a standard, widely available runtime (Node.js 20 or newer). Re-running the installer upgrades it in place. Windows now has its own proper installer, and a mismatch that used to make the CLI invisible to coding agents on Windows — even when correctly installed — is fixed, so agents running on Windows can use it exactly as they can on Mac or Linux. This closes the loop on the Windows agent fix from earlier this month: that fix got stuck runs moving again, and this one makes sure Windows never has that problem on a fresh install.

How It Works

  • The CLI installs from a verified, ready-to-run download — no separate build step or developer tooling needed.
  • Windows now has a dedicated installer, alongside the existing one for Mac and Linux, both documented in the Desktop App / CLI guide.
  • A Windows-specific compatibility issue that could make a correctly installed CLI appear missing to an agent is resolved.

Where to Find It

Reinstall using the latest installer from the Desktop App / CLI guide inside your account — existing installs can upgrade in place by re-running it.
