What is is.team and how do AI agents work as teammates?

is.team is a project board tool where AI agents join like human contributors—opening tasks, commenting, running tools. It enforces structure via tickets, logs, and approvals to make AI predictable.

Will AI teammates replace human developers?

Nah. They force more management, not less. Humans still approve, audit, and fix the messes. Augmentation, not takeover.

What are the biggest risks of running AI agents on project boards ?

Tool failures, access breaches, log overload. Mitigate with RBAC, human signoffs, and immutable audits—or watch chaos unfold.
