Track agent runs

The Agent runs table on the Agents page lists every agent task in your team. Use it to see what is under way, read what an agent produced, answer a question an agent has paused to ask, and stop or clear a run.

Where runs come from

A run reaches the table in one of three ways:

A help banner above the table says the same thing. Dismiss it once you no longer need it.

Read the table

Each row is one run, whichever of the three set it going.

Column What it shows
Trigger A pill reading Workflow or Policy, naming the one behind the run.
Status An icon for where the run has got to. See below.
Target What the run is working on: how many documents, for a workflow run; the document's title, for a run a policy fired.
Created How long ago the run was created.
Duration How long the run has taken.
Actions Cancel, for a run still going; dismiss, for one of your own that has finished.

The Status icons are:

  • a spinner — the run is waiting to start, or is under way;
  • a green tick — the run finished;
  • a red cross — the run failed, timed out, or was cancelled;
  • a pulsing amber Needs input badge — the agent has paused to ask you something. Select the badge to answer; see Respond to an agent request.

Narrow the list

Three controls sit in the toolbar above the table:

  • a status filter offering All, Active, Failed, and Completed;
  • a Table / Cards toggle, which sets how the runs are laid out;
  • a toggle between your own runs and the whole team's.

When there is nothing to show, the table says "No agent runs yet." — or "No runs match the current filter." while a status filter is set.

Open a run

Select a row to expand it. The chevron at the start of the row turns, and a panel opens beneath. Select the row again to collapse it.

The panel holds whatever the run has to show:

  • the output of a completed run, in a block you can scroll;
  • the question the agent is waiting on, where it has paused for input;
  • a footer line of technical details, which you can quote to support if you need to raise the run with us.

Cancel a run that is still going

A run that is waiting to start, under way, or paused for input carries a cancel action in its Actions cell. Select it and confirm. The confirmation warns you that the agent will be stopped and any work in progress lost. The run's status then changes to cancelled.

A run that has already finished has no cancel action. Nor does a run a policy fired — those cannot be cancelled at any point.

Dismiss a run you have finished with

Once a run has finished — whether it completed, failed, timed out, or was cancelled — a trash action appears in place of cancel. It appears only on runs you dispatched yourself. Select it and confirm. The run disappears from the table, and from anywhere else it was listed, and it does not come back.

A colleague's run has no trash action for you. It stays in the table until whoever dispatched it dismisses it; once they do, it disappears for the whole team.
