The per-connector "enabled/disabled model" settings lived under a
global key in the settings key-value table
(`disabled_models:${connectorId}`). No company dimension. Deleting a
company left the pool choices behind, and creating a new company
silently inherited them — the visible symptom was "onboarding's team-
model configuration survives company deletion and pollutes the next
company's CEO model list."
Root fix, not a cleanup hook: the storage becomes a real relational
table with `(company_id, connector_id)` primary key and an
`ON DELETE CASCADE` FK from `companies`. Company deletion wipes pool
config by construction; no cleanup step in `deleteCompany()` can
drift.
Schema (migration v42):
- CREATE TABLE connector_model_pool_settings (company_id, connector_id,
disabled_models_json, updated_at), PK (company_id, connector_id),
FK companies(id) ON DELETE CASCADE.
- Drop every `settings.disabled_models:*` key — these were the bug's
residue; there is no right company to attribute them to, so the
migration clears them. Users re-select on next onboarding.
API surgery — every reader/writer now takes companyId:
- db.getDisabledModels(companyId, connectorId)
- db.setDisabledModels(companyId, connectorId, models)
- db.hasModelPoolSettings(companyId, connectorId)
- connector-model-policy: getConnectorModelPolicy(deps, companyId,
connectorId); validateConnectorModelSelection(deps, companyId,
connectorId, model)
- model-dispatch: listEnabledModels(companyId, deps);
pickModelForAgent resolves companyId from agent.companyId
- orchestration heartbeat/task-runner/turn-context/run-dispatch pass
the agent's or run's companyId through to the policy deps
- IPC schema: connectorDisabledModelsSchema gains companyId; new
connectorModelPoolQuerySchema pairs companyId+connectorId for reads
Onboarding becomes commit-on-launch:
- useConnectorModelSelection no longer persists via IPC during
onboarding. Toggles mutate local state; it exposes `poolSelections`
to the wizard.
- bootstrapOnboardingSchema gains connectorPoolSelections. The
onboarding service saves the company first, then persists each
per-connector disabled list scoped to the new company id — CEO
model validation runs against the company's freshly-persisted pool,
not some stale global.
- IPC setConnectorDisabledModels now requires companyId; the only
consumer was onboarding, which no longer calls it at all.
- Main-side listConnectorModels returns the raw provider catalog
(no pool filtering), since that IPC is used from onboarding where
no company exists yet; pool filtering happens at dispatch time.
saveConnector IPC drops the per-company pool validation — connector
config is a global hint, company-scoped enforcement belongs at run
dispatch where the company is known.
Tests: 603/603 green. Typecheck clean. Integration tests rewritten
to set the pool via connectorPoolSelections on bootstrap input, not
a pre-bootstrap global setDisabledModels call.
AgentCompany
Run an AI company from your desktop.
What it does
Type a company name and a goal. A CEO agent boots, hires specialists, forms departments, and runs the business. You approve or steer from the desktop.
Local, SQLite-backed, no external services. Inspired by Paperclip.
26 providers, no CLI
The runtime links pi-mono directly.

Features
Self-organizing teams
CEO builds the org chart from one goal.
Agent messaging
Threads and DMs between agents. Messages land in each recipient's transcript as pi AgentMessage turns.
Tasks
Goals break into tasks. Agents pick them up, report progress, escalate blockers.
Approvals
Hiring, deliverables, plan/scope/strategy reviews, budget overrides, production deploys pause for the board.
Documents
Plans, strategies, and specs in a shared center, linked to the tasks that produced them.
Launch in a minute
Name, mission, goal, provider, mode.
Quick Start
