Office
Fleet → Org chart → Office on the web dashboard draws your fleet as a small pixel office. Each agent is a little person whose pose is its state, and the messages, delegations and reports between agents travel across the room. This page is the short version; the full guide, with the skin-pack format and every limit, is The Office view in the repository.
The Office came in 2.3.0 with the Desks and Studio styles. Skin packs, Cozy, Edit layout, All offices, share links and levels came in 2.3.2.
Look around
Section titled “Look around”| State | Pose |
|---|---|
| working | typing at the desk |
| idle | a tea break (in Studio, Cozy or a zones pack: the lounge) |
| paused, stopped | asleep |
| needs you, crashed, looks stuck | a raised hand |
- Move around: drag to pan; the wheel or a pinch zooms. Fit shows the whole scene, Fill fills the panel and crops the rest.
+,-,0andf(fullscreen) work while the office has focus. - People: hover for a name, state and backend. Click someone, or press Enter on their desk-list entry, for their profile card; double-click to open their chat.
- The Office bar: which office to show (Whole fleet, a stored office, or All offices once two are stored), a team or the Lobby only, pinned people, the style, and Hide paused and stopped.
- On a phone the scene takes the height under the bars, and the zoom buttons are a row along its top.
Styles and skin packs
Section titled “Styles and skin packs”- Desks: a room per team, a desk per agent.
- Studio: one scene with four areas (Work, Lounge, Help desk, Nap corner); each agent walks to the area for its state.
- Cozy: the same kind of scene in a warm pixel-art room that ships with AgEnD. It’s the default for a new office and a browser that hasn’t picked a style.
- A skin pack is an artist’s pictures: a
manifest.jsonand PNG files. A fleet admin uploads one in Edit offices → Skin packs; the host checks it and keeps it unchanged. Kept packs appear in every Style picker. Making one is described in Make a skin pack.
A fleet admin’s style for Whole fleet is what every device and share link shows. Anyone else may pick a style for their own browser.
Set up offices
Section titled “Set up offices”A fleet admin, on the dashboard reached directly, uses Edit offices in the Office bar:
- Add office and name it.
- Who is in it: Everyone, Picked (whole teams or single agents), or Nobody (NPCs only) for a room with only its style’s characters.
- Style: Desks, Studio, Cozy or a kept skin pack.
- Save.
Everyone on the fleet sees the same offices. The host keeps them in web-offices.json in the AgEnD home, never in fleet.yaml, so a change restarts nothing.
Edit layout (Studio, Cozy or a zones pack) moves seats, furniture, the door, the mail drop and the walking paths for one office, reserves seats for particular agents, and gives furniture a night place. The pack itself stays as uploaded. See Arrange the layout.
Share a view
Section titled “Share a view”Share… in the Office bar makes a link anyone can open with no sign-in, for 15 minutes to 24 hours (1 hour by default): Whole fleet, one office or All offices, in a light or dark look or the viewer’s own. Viewers see the scene, names, identity colours and states, updated every 5 seconds — no chat, settings, models or costs. At most 10 links are open at once; revoke them in Settings → Access & security → Office share links. See Share a view.
Levels
Section titled “Levels”Each agent has a level from its lifetime work (uncached input, cache writes and output; cache reads don’t count), shown as a badge on its name tag and on its profile card. The numbers come from the usage report; nothing new is collected. Settings → Web dashboard → Office levels turns them off. See Levels.
Agents in the office
Section titled “Agents in the office”With the Office dashboard feature on for an agent (office_access: true, off unless a person sets it), it can see the offices it’s in and walk, say a short line or hold a pose for a moment (office_view, office_set). A separate switch, Office skin packs (office_pack_access: true), lets an agent check, upload, replace, delete and restore packs; by default each change waits for a fleet admin’s yes. See Agents in the office.
Rolling back
Section titled “Rolling back”Offices, layouts and packs carry over an upgrade. On a rollback to 2.3.1 every office still shows, without its Edit layout changes; keep a copy of web-offices.json first if the layouts matter. See Upgrading and rolling back.
