AGENT FEEDBACK · A

The agent's vocabulary

Four channels — thinking, receipts, rail nudges, and doc flash — that turn agent activity from invisible into legible. You can see what's happening, what just happened, what to look at, and undo anything you don't want.

Thinking bubbles

Shown live while the agent is mid-turn. The icon + label evolve as the agent moves through "thinking → reading → computing → writing" stages.

Receipts

Every agent action lands as a receipt row in "Recent activity." Stack multiple actions from one turn into a single card. Undo reverses them.

Rail nudges

Pulled signals from the system + agent observations. FIFO stack, max 3 visible, auto-dismiss after 60s. Negative nudges pulse once to draw attention.

OBJECTION
Objection raised on tradeoffs
Sarah flagged: the timeline assumes vendor delivery in week 2 — that's historically slipped.
CLOSED
Round closed: 5/5 agree
Plan-A unanimous vote complete.

I noticed a pattern
Three of your past five decisions stalled on Step 4 — want to focus on objectives first?

Doc flash

When the agent writes to a section, the section flashes for 2s and shows a "JUST NOW" eyebrow for 30s. Settles into normal chrome after that.
