Help & Getting Started
Answers to common questions, and how to reach us if you're stuck.
Getting started
How do I set up my AI workforce?
Start at Workforce → Assemble Team, or just describe what you're trying to build in Chat with Atlas — it can hire the right roles for you directly from the conversation.
What's the difference between "Start a Build" and "Repo Scanner"?
"Start a Build" (Launch) plans and builds a brand-new project from an idea. "Repo Scanner" (Projects) connects an existing GitHub repository, scans it, and applies AI-suggested fixes to it.
What is Forge?
Forge is Atlas's self-improvement engine — it scans for real gaps (bugs, missing features, code-quality issues), proposes fixes, and opens pull requests for human review. "Forge (self-improve)" runs on this app's own codebase; "Forge (multi-repo)" runs against repos you connect.
Billing & plans
Where do I manage my subscription?
Settings → Billing shows your current plan, usage against your monthly build/PR/deploy limits, and a link to manage payment details.
What happens if I hit my plan's limit?
Builds, PRs, and deploys are capped per month by plan tier. Settings → Billing shows how close you are before it happens; upgrading from /pricing raises the limit immediately.
Data & privacy
Can I export or delete my data?
Open Settings → Data & Privacy. Any verified member can export identifiable personal records or request a reviewed deletion; shared workspace requests require the owner. Exports include a scope manifest and actual record contents. Deletion is tracked with a deadline and is complete only after operator fulfillment is recorded.
Where's the privacy policy / terms of service?
Linked in the footer of every page — see Privacy and Terms.
Integrations & components
How do I connect GitHub?
Open Integrations → GitHub and choose Connect GitHub. Complete GitHub OAuth consent with your own account and the required repository permissions. Repo Scanner and Forge use your customer connection; revoke or disconnect it from the same integration page.
Where do I choose reusable UI components?
Open /components to choose Atlas/shadcn, Radix or plain React and generate/download accessible starter components. Review the result in your project before shipping.
What other integrations are supported?
Linear (for intake of work items into Forge) and a general integrations catalog under Workforce → Integrations.
Still stuck?
Need help with Atlas itself? Use Settings → Atlas Support or the Contact page to file and track a platform request. For your team's workspace permissions, the owner/admin can be found under Settings → Team Members.
