# I gave my local AI agents an org chart, a budget, and a paper trail > Source: > Published: 2026-10-06 05:45:02+00:00 Most AI agents die when you close the chat. Mine don't. They're called **sparks**, and they live in [Flash](https://github.com/Natuworkguy/Flash), my open source agent shell for [Ollama](https://ollama.com). Each one gets a name, a goal, a schedule, and lines it must never cross. Then it works on its own, on your machine, and reports back. Make a spark that checks my repo every morning for new issues and tells me which ones look like bugs. Never comment on anything. Two sparks were fine. Six were six interns who had never met. So today they got a company. Any spark can **report to a lead**. Its reports roll up to the lead, and the lead tells you what matters, so you read one report instead of six. Each team is drawn as a live org chart, with reports flying up the lines as comets. ``` /sparks teams add Dev Team ``` Built-in templates (Dev Team, Personal Desk) **start paused**, so nothing burns your GPU before you've looked. A spark can propose hiring a new spark, or letting one go, with a reason. It waits as a card until you approve or decline. Off by default. Turn one on and a spark gets tokens per hour, day, week or month. When it runs out, it pauses. ``` /sparks budget scout 50k/day ``` Local tokens still cost you: they're GPU time, and a loop at 3am is still a loop. Every shift, tool call, approval and change goes into an append-only log. Each entry carries the hash of the one before it: ``` hashlib.sha256((previous + body).encode("utf-8")).hexdigest() ``` Edit a line by hand and verification points at it. **Pause all** stops new shifts and lets running ones finish. **Stop all** is the big red button. The agent can already drive a web page. Now `devtools` gives it the network log, full requests, the console, a JS console, and computed styles. A screenshot can't show a 404. This can. `notify_user` pops up a toast in the web UI, a browser notification in a background tab, or a desktop notification. It's rate limited, and you set the limit: ``` /notify 8 per 30m ``` `ollama rm` it, sparks fall back to another model and say so instead of crashing. 10 features in one day, 1,916 tests passing, 0 API keys. ``` curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Natuworkguy/Flash/main/install.sh | bash flash ``` Then type `/sparks new`. Stars on [GitHub](https://github.com/Natuworkguy/Flash) help a lot. **What job would you give an agent that works for you around the clock?** The best answer becomes a template.
