# Features

> The capabilities that make Genie work — from structured intent to provider-agnostic orchestration.

<Note>
  Genie isn't one big feature — it's a set of small, composable capabilities that turn "AI can code" into "AI can ship." Each one solves a specific coordination problem. Together, they become a coherent orchestration layer.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Wishes — Structured Intent" icon="scroll" href="/genie/concepts/wishes">
    Define what to build once — scope, acceptance criteria, execution groups — and never re-explain it to another agent.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Pipeline — Brainstorm to Ship" icon="arrows-spin" href="/genie/skills/work">
    Seven stages from vague idea to merged PR: draft, brainstorm, wish, build, review, qa, ship. Each stage has a skill and a gate.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Team Orchestration" icon="users-gear" href="/genie/concepts/teams">
    Multi-agent squads with isolated worktrees, shared state, and dependency-aware scheduling. Parallel execution without merge conflicts.
  </Card>

  <Card title="PostgreSQL Backend" icon="database" href="/genie/architecture/postgres">
    Embedded pgserve database with 10 migrations — tasks, boards, agents, sessions, audit events, and app registry. All state in PG, not JSON files.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Board & Pipeline System" icon="columns-3" href="/genie/cli/boards">
    Kanban-style boards with configurable columns, gate types, and action skills. Project-scoped pipelines that drive the task lifecycle.
  </Card>

  <Card title="OTel Observability" icon="chart-mixed" href="/genie/cli/observability">
    Full event audit log, cost breakdown by agent/model/wish, tool usage analytics, session replay, and machine metrics. All queryable from the CLI.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Real-time Coordination" icon="tower-broadcast" href="/genie/architecture/messaging">
    Cross-agent messaging so agents know what each other are doing. Durable mailboxes, team chat, and tmux pane injection.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Context Preservation" icon="brain" href="/genie/architecture/transcripts">
    Provider-agnostic transcript capture across Claude and Codex. Session history survives crashes, suspends, and provider switches.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Skills + /pm" icon="wand-magic-sparkles" href="/genie/skills/loop-overview">
    Composable slash commands — from `/brainstorm` through `/dream`, plus a full `/pm` playbook. Each one encodes a workflow we got tired of repeating manually.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Item Registry" icon="store" href="/genie/architecture/postgres">
    Unified app store for agents, skills, boards, workflows, stacks, templates, and hooks. Install, version, and manage ecosystem items.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Provider Agnosticism — BYOA" icon="plug" href="/genie/concepts/byoa">
    Claude, Codex, Open Claw, or your custom agent. Mix providers on the same team. Genie cares that the work ships — not who does it.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Notification System" icon="bell" href="/genie/architecture/postgres">
    Per-actor notification preferences across WhatsApp, Slack, email, and more. PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY for real-time event streaming.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Quickstart" icon="rocket" href="/genie/quickstart">
    Five-minute smoke test from install to your first merged PR.
  </Card>

  <Card title="The Genie Loop" icon="arrows-rotate" href="/genie/skills/loop-overview">

  <Card title="Core Concepts" icon="book" href="/genie/concepts/wishes">
    The primitives — wishes, agents, teams, skills — that power every feature above.
