Delivery
What the factory delivered in a period, the agent time and spend behind it, the decisions it scored, the people it needed, and what the same work would take a team by hand. Every figure is marked measured, derived or assumed.
Delivery answers “what did the factory get done, and what did it take?”. It is a section of the cockpit with five pages behind it. Nothing in it reads GitHub: every figure is a rollup the factory already holds.
Ranges
Today, 7 days, 30 days, this month, and the quarter (the last 90 days, 90d). Today starts at midnight and this month on the 1st, in your timezone. You can compare a range with the one before it.
Measured, derived, assumed
Every figure is marked:
| Mark | Means |
|---|---|
| Measured | Counted from records |
| Derived | Worked out from measured figures |
| Assumed | Built on a rate or time from the delivery.* settings |
A figure the factory has not recorded yet is shown as Not recorded yet, never as zero.
The pages
| Page | Console path | Shows |
|---|---|---|
| Delivery | the cockpit’s Delivery section | Outcomes, agent time, spend by model, decisions, people, value by role, the comparison with a team by hand, and the outcomes ledger |
| Outcome | /resolve/factory-outcome |
One outcome traced back to its runs, sessions, decisions and people |
| Decisions | /resolve/factory-delivery-decisions |
The decisions System One scored, and the time they saved |
| People | /resolve/factory-people |
The hours people spent in the factory, by what they did |
| Contributors | /resolve/factory-contributors |
Everyone who started, decided, reviewed or signed something, internal or external |
| Contributor | /resolve/factory-contributor |
One person’s part |
The outcomes ledger can be exported as CSV.
People are never bots
A person is counted only where a record names a human. Bots, the GitHub App, service accounts and Pix [bot] commits are listed under Seen, and left out, and never counted. delivery.companyDomain (an email domain such as acme.example) marks who is internal.
People’s time is built from sittings: actions close together count as one sitting, and a gap of delivery.idleGapMin minutes (5 by default) ends it. The sources of people’s actions can each be switched off: delivery.sources.checkpoint, commit, comment, review, chat, notification, admin and pixcall.
The by-hand comparison
The comparison asks what the same work would take a team. Agent work is priced by role, each with an hourly rate and a multiplier:
| Role | Rate (USD/h) | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
sse (senior engineer) |
95 | 2.4 |
security |
110 | 2.0 |
qa |
70 | 2.2 |
devops |
90 | 2.0 |
reviewer |
95 | 1.5 |
planner |
120 | 1.6 |
writer |
60 | 1.8 |
Each role’s keys are delivery.roles.<role>.enabled, .rate and .mult.
Decisions are priced by kind, with the minutes a person would take:
| Kind | On | Minutes |
|---|---|---|
toolcall |
off | 0 |
mode |
on | 0.5 |
goal |
on | 3 |
plan |
on | 4 |
triage |
on | 6 |
merge |
on | 8 |
other |
on | 2 |
Each kind’s keys are delivery.kinds.<kind>.enabled and .minutes.
