๐Ÿง  Persistent Memory

They remember your codebase.

Shipwrite AI agents don't start from scratch every session. They index your entire repository โ€” every file, function, and convention. When they pick up a ticket, they already know your architecture, your naming patterns, and that one weird workaround in the auth module.

Past decisions stick. If you told Nova to always use snake_case routes last month, it still knows that today.

๐Ÿ“ Repository indexed 1,247 files
๐Ÿ” Functions mapped 3,891
๐Ÿ“ Team conventions 23 rules
๐Ÿ’ก Past decisions 142 remembered
๐ŸŽ›๏ธ Your Rules, Their Limits

You control how far they go.

Not ready to let an AI push code unsupervised? Start in Shadow mode โ€” the agent watches your workflow and tells you what it would do. Promote it to Assisted, then Supervised, then fully Autonomous as trust builds.

Set hard rules too: "never push to main," "always run tests before opening a PR," "never touch the billing module." Your guardrails, enforced automatically.

Shadow Observes only
Assisted Drafts, you approve
Supervised Acts on low-risk, queues high-risk
Autonomous Ships independently
๐Ÿ“Š Transparent Costs

Cheaper than an intern.
Faster than your best dev.

Shipwrite AI routes each task to the right AI model โ€” lightweight models for triage and comments, powerful models for complex architecture decisions. Prompt caching cuts costs by up to 90%.

A typical AI employee costs $10โ€“25/day for a mix of tasks. Set per-agent budgets, get alerts before overages, and see exactly where every dollar goes.

Haiku Triage, comments, status updates ~$2/day
Sonnet Code generation, PR creation ~$15/day
Opus Architecture, multi-file refactors ~$40/day
