01
Do and verify the work
Atlas gathers evidence, completes the request, and checks the real result before treating the approach as proven.
01 · Purpose
What Atlas is
Atlas is a deeply informed digital teammate: an agent that retains rich operational context and can use it to help the team understand what is happening, decide what to do next, and move work forward.
It connects knowledge across approved shared sources, keeps that understanding current, and turns context into practical action. Atlas can answer questions, generate reports, analyse patterns, execute tasks across platforms, build automations and workflows, and create or run reusable skills.
Atlas is not limited to the Creative lane as a product vision. Omaze DE Creative is its current proving ground, while the longer-term goal is to support people and workflows across the wider team.
Context that can act
Atlas combines persistent team knowledge with execution. It should ground its work in evidence, show what it used, verify consequential actions, and continuously improve how it works.
02 · Self-improvement
Teach Atlas once. Reuse and automate the workflow.
Atlas is powered by the Hermes self-improvement loop. It can turn a proven process, or a correction from the team, into a reusable skill rather than relearning the same workflow in every conversation.
02
Capture the reusable method
It records the procedure, required sources, permissions, approval gates, verification steps and known pitfalls in an Atlas skill.
03
Reuse and improve it
Future sessions can load the skill. When the team corrects or extends the workflow, Atlas can update the skill so the improvement persists.
04
Automate only when approved
A skill can be run on demand or attached to a Hermes cron or webhook. Creating the skill does not automatically schedule it or grant permission to write to external systems.
Memory
Stable facts, preferences, access details and standing boundaries.
Context vault
Shared operational knowledge, decisions, source maps, campaign context and evidence.
Skills
Reusable execution playbooks describing how Atlas performs a specific workflow safely and consistently.
Automations
Approved skills connected to schedules or events through Hermes cron and webhook infrastructure.
You can create skills with Atlas
Describe the workflow in normal language. Atlas can inspect related Cowork skills, n8n workflows and existing Atlas capabilities, propose a safe design, build it, dry-run it, and separately ask before enabling automation or consequential writes.
03 · Current understanding
What Atlas understands today
The current context is specific to Omaze DE Creative—not a general archive of every Exactius or Omaze project.
Creative workflow
Request → triage → brief → production → internal review → partner approval → export/delivery → performance feedback.
Campaign structure
Launch, BV/bonus phases, Early Close, Close, Big Swings and ongoing/evergreen work, linked by house.
Creative outputs
Static, video, copy and concept work across Meta and secondary channels, with documented naming conventions.
Live house hubs
Current operational hubs for H5, H6 and H7 with linked tasks, assets, stages, pending approvals, deadlines and recent mentions.
Source authority
Which source answers which question—for example, ClickUp for task stage and Figma comments for static-review evidence.
Campaign memory
Stable workflow facts, source documents, meeting operations, action-item candidates and curated learnings with supporting data.
04 · Connected systems
Access today, with the real limits
“Connected” does not mean “everything in the system.” Atlas can only use the accounts, channels, files, projects and write permissions that are authorised and shared with it.
ClickUp
Read + writeHas normal-user access as Atlas. It can read, create, edit, assign, move and close tasks, and add comments across the authorised workspace.
Boundary: ClickUp remains authoritative. Atlas should confirm consequential or ambiguous changes before writing, then read the task back to verify the result.
Slack
Live nowScheduled ingestion reads four approved shared/project channels, applies a DE filter and surfaces operational requests with message evidence.
Boundary: Slack messages are signals, not canonical task status. DMs are excluded from shared-context ingestion.
Figma
PartialReads shared Omaze DE house-file comments with author, time and node context. H7 pages/comments are available; H6 comments are available.
Gap: H6 full-file export is blocked, and performance-file keys for earlier houses have not been supplied.
Frame.io
Live nowRead access to the Omaze DE project, including folders, files and authored comments. Asset paths can be linked to tasks and house hubs.
Boundary: Read-only. Comment language is evidence; formal approval logic is not assumed where the source does not prove it.
Google Workspace
PartialAuthenticated Drive/Docs access for files shared with Atlas, including the Creative source map and H6/H7 narratives.
Gap: The Big Swing deck, copy working sheet, H7 copy matrix and Creative-call notes are not shared; the H6 matrix link is broken.
Fireflies
Live nowReads meeting transcripts and filters them against the documented Creative meeting guide to capture asks, commitments and asset mentions.
Boundary: Only available transcripts and matching meetings can be used. Atlas separates operational actions from learnings.
GitHub + context vault
Live nowA Git-backed, curated context vault holds source summaries, house hubs, action candidates, meeting operations and learnings with evidence links.
Boundary: It is a curated layer, not a raw mirror of every message, comment or transcript.
Hermes automations
Build + runCan design, build and maintain agent-driven automations using Hermes skills, scheduled cron jobs and webhooks on the Atlas VPS.
Default: New automations should run in Hermes. Atlas should define the trigger, permissions, approval gates, verification and delivery clearly.
n8n
Source accessCan read Exactius n8n workflow definitions and execution history to understand existing triggers, node logic, mappings and platform dependencies.
Boundary: n8n is source material for porting. Atlas rebuilds approved workflows as Hermes-native automations rather than treating n8n as the default runtime.
Cowork plugins repo
Source accessCan read the private Exactius/cowork-plugins repo and use its user-created skills as source material for new Atlas capabilities and automations.
Boundary: Preserve the skill’s intent, safety rules and judgment. Port it into Atlas/Hermes rather than silently changing behavior.
Cloudflare Pages
Live nowCan publish approved static artifacts to isolated exactius-* Pages projects after a content and secret scan.
Boundary: Pages links are public. The protected apex and www sites are not touched.
Source hierarchy matters. If Slack says “approved” but ClickUp still says “in partner approval,” Atlas should flag the conflict—not silently overwrite the ClickUp status.
05 · Practical use
What the Creative team can ask right now
Good requests have a house, phase, task, channel or time window. Atlas can still help when those are missing, but it will label uncertain links rather than guessing.
01
Find assets and source documents
Ask for the ClickUp task, Figma frame, Frame.io asset, narrative or naming source for a house/phase. Atlas can return the best available links and call out missing access.
02
Check task and campaign status
Request a house or phase roll-up, open tasks, due dates or recent stage changes. The answer should be anchored to current ClickUp evidence.
03
Track approvals and exceptions
Surface assets in partner approval, candidate approval language, unresolved review exceptions and conflicting signals. Comment-derived approvals stay labelled as candidates until stronger status evidence confirms them.
04
Catch operational requests
Atlas scans approved shared Slack channels, matching Fireflies meetings, Figma comments and Frame.io comments for explicit asks or commitments. It checks for an existing ClickUp task before surfacing new work.
05
Create and maintain ClickUp work
Atlas can check for duplicates, then create or update tasks, set ownership and dates, change status, and leave comments. For consequential or ambiguous changes it should show the intended mutation first, get approval, and verify the saved task afterward.
06
Build and run automations
Describe a recurring or event-driven workflow and Atlas can turn it into a Hermes skill plus cron or webhook, including source access, guardrails, approval gates, verification and delivery. It can also port existing n8n workflows or Cowork skills.
07
Prepare briefs and status reports
Combine current source links into a concise brief, daily status, meeting pre-read, handoff or “what did I miss?” summary. Missing sources and conflicting evidence remain visible.
08
Maintain campaign memory and learnings
Preserve stable workflow context and evidence-backed learnings across weeks. Learnings follow a structured method and should not appear without supporting data.
09
Connect activity to performance context carefully
Atlas can line up what was made, when it changed, what test was intended and what performance data was reported. It can describe associations and test evidence; it cannot prove causality unless the source and test design support it.
06 · Complementary tools
Atlas and Claude on your computer
Atlas does not replace Claude Cowork or Claude Code. The useful distinction is between a persistent cloud teammate with shared context and execution capabilities, and a local Claude session helping one person with the work in front of them.
| Area | Atlas | Claude Cowork or Code on your computer |
|---|---|---|
| Role | A persistent digital teammate serving shared team workflows. | An interactive assistant working with an individual in a local session. |
| Context | Maintains rich, shared operational context across approved sources, projects and interactions. | Primarily uses the current conversation, local project, files and services available to that person. |
| Continuity | Retains team knowledge and reusable capabilities across sessions and over time. | Optimised for the current piece of work; continuity depends on that user's sessions, projects and setup. |
| Execution | Can work across authorised platforms, execute operational tasks, generate reports, analyse activity and coordinate workflows. | Can perform powerful work with the user's local tools and connectors while that person directs the session. |
| Automation | Can build and run durable scheduled or event-driven workflows for the team. | Usually interactive and user-driven unless the person separately configures automation infrastructure. |
| Skills | Uses team-owned skills with shared context, permissions, approval gates and verification. Skills can become durable workflows. | Uses personal or project-level instructions suited to that user's files, environment and immediate work. |
| How they complement | Provides the shared context and always-available execution layer for recurring team operations. | Provides a flexible personal workspace for exploration, drafting, coding and prototyping workflows that may later be brought to Atlas. |
Personal workspace meets shared teammate
Use Claude locally when you want a powerful assistant beside you for an active piece of work. Use Atlas when the work benefits from shared context, continuity, cross-platform execution or an automation that should keep running for the team.

Example prompts to try
Copy one, then replace the house, phase or date range. Atlas should answer with links and flag missing evidence.
“Give me the current H7 BV3 Creative status: tasks, stages, partner approvals, exceptions and the next deadlines. Link every source.”
Status roll-up“Find the source task and review links for the H7 BV2 Value Count-up video. Tell me what is confirmed versus comment-only.”
Asset retrieval“What Creative requests appeared in approved Slack channels, Fireflies, Figma or Frame.io this week that are not already covered by ClickUp?”
Request detection“Check ClickUp for duplicates, then show me the task you propose creating, including owner, due date, status and source evidence. Wait for my approval before creating it.”
Controlled task creation“Build a Hermes automation that checks the Creative Pipeline every weekday, flags overdue partner approvals, and drafts a Slack update for approval. Show me the plan and dry-run before enabling it.”
Automation building“List the relevant n8n workflows and Cowork skills for Creative operations, then recommend which one to port into Atlas first. Do not build until I approve the plan.”
Automation source discovery“Prepare a five-minute pre-read for the next Creative status meeting: changes since the last meeting, pending approvals, deadlines and blockers.”
Meeting pre-read“I was away for three days. Summarise what changed in Omaze DE Creative, grouped by house and phase, with source links and unresolved conflicts.”
Missed context“Show the available evidence connecting the latest Creative activity to reported performance. Separate observation, test result and unsupported causality.”
Performance context“Which Creative source documents are accessible for H6 and H7, and which expected files are still blocked or incorrectly linked?”
Access checkHow this guide was checked. Capability claims were reconciled against the live Creative Lane documentation, source-access matrix, current H5–H7 hubs, action-candidate ledger, scheduled workflow state and direct integration checks. Access can change; Atlas should re-check the source before giving a time-sensitive answer.
