A pipeline is an assembly line of agents (“bees”). You pick agents in order; each hands its work to the next, all on one shared git branch. It’s how you go from a goal to reviewed, tested, security-checked code in a single run.
Pipelines require the Temporal orchestration engine and are available on Pro and Team plans (and metered/Enterprise). Free can’t run pipelines.

The built-in bees

Pipeline builder

The pipeline builder — drag bees into an assembly line; each hands off to the next.

Your org starts with a library of agent roles you can drag into a lineup: You can also create custom bees (name, role, icon, system prompt). A typical line is dev → QE → review (add design, security, or Jira as needed). A lineup has 1–12 agents, and the same agent may appear more than once.

Run one

1

Open the 🐝 Pipeline tab

On the project page.
2

Build the assembly line

Drag bees from Your bees into Your assembly line (or click to append). Reorder with ↑/↓; remove with ×.
3

(Optional) per-stage model + Jira key

Set a model per stage. If a Jira bee is in the line, enter the issue key (e.g. PROJ-123).
4

Enter the goal, accept Terms, Run the line 🐝

You’re taken to the first stage’s task; run history and per-stage detail are on the pipeline runs view.
The pipeline works on a branch named pipeline/<short-id> from your default base branch. Each stage is a real workspace with its own console and status.

Gated review with a remediation loop

When a lineup has a coding agent (dev) plus at least one gating role (qe, review, or security), the pipeline runs a verdict-gated remediation loop instead of a simple one-pass line:
1

Producers run first

Jira / design / dev run in order and push to the shared branch. The platform opens the PR (not the agent).
2

Gates run in order, each must pass

Each gate posts a PR comment (findings) and an agentbees/<role> commit status. The next gate only runs if the previous one passed.
3

A failure re-runs the coding agent

On a failing gate, the coding agent re-runs with a “fix” prompt (read the failing checks + change requests, push to the same branch).
4

Re-verify from the first gate

Because a fix can regress an earlier gate, verification restarts from the first gate. Per-stage caps apply (qe ≤4, review ≤3, security ≤3, dev/fix ≤5).
The run finishes as completed (all gates green) or changes_requested (a cap was hit or it gave up). Stages are created lazily as the loop reaches them.

Quotas & slots

Two limits apply when you start a pipeline:Per-day quota (resets 00:00 UTC): Free 0 · Pro 2 · Team 5 runs/day. Metered/Enterprise is unlimited by count but requires wallet balance.Slot reservation: a pipeline reserves one workspace slot per agent up front, against your plan’s concurrency cap. If 6 of 10 slots are in use, only a 4-agent line will start. Slots free as stages close.
The builder shows “N of M pipelines used today” and disables Run when you’re blocked — with a prompt to run a smaller pipeline or upgrade.

Jira integration

Add the Jira Agent and, when your org has Jira configured (base URL + email + token), it pulls the story into requirements.md so downstream bees build against real acceptance criteria. Set the issue key per run; a default project can be configured per agent.
