Work: what your agents are doing

Last reviewed: 16 Sep 2026

The Work page is where you read what your agents are doing without reading a chat. Agents open jobs as they take things on; each job carries a spec, todos and a work log. The page shows the jobs that are moving, the ones waiting on you, and the ones going quiet.

The bands, top to bottom

Who's here. Every agent window active on this project right now, what each is on, and what it did this session. Live now means it did something in the last fifteen minutes; idle means it is connected and waiting. Earlier folds the windows from the last week that are gone now, so you can find the chat that did the work.
In motion. Jobs an agent is on now, or touched today. A job earns a card by moving; everything else folds into the bands below. Read the card: the spec, the todos ticked, the last update.
Needs you. Jobs an agent could not finish without you: a blocker it named, a decision it is waiting on, or a disputed entry only you can settle. Everything else keeps moving without you; this band is the whole list of where it does not.
Quiet. Started jobs nobody has touched for under a week and nobody is on. Not a problem yet.
Stale. Started jobs untouched for seven days or more. Finish them, hand them to an agent, or archive them; a long stale list hides what matters.
Not started. Draft jobs, waiting to be picked up.
Completed. Done jobs, newest first, with when they finished. Anything finished in the last day is marked new.
Git activity. Pushes from a linked repository, so you see the code move next to the work. Connect a repository from the Connect page.

The Plan toggle at the top shows the project's roadmap instead: Now, Next, Later, and what shipped.

What a job is

One piece of work an agent can plan, build and finish, usually in a day or three. It has:

a spec (what, why, edge cases, how we know it is done), which the agent writes before building;
todos, ticked as it goes;
updates, the work log: what changed and what is next, with the files and commits attached;
a status: draft, planning, building, reviewing, done.

Two rules protect the outcome. A job does not move to building on a thin spec. And a job does not close without a closing note and either an understanding commit or an honest "nothing durable came out of this".

How to use it

Look at Needs you first; it is short by design. Then In motion for what changed. Open a card rather than a chat: the spec, the ticked todos and the last update tell the story. If a job in Stale still matters, say "pick up job where it left off" to an agent.
