A task gives assigned work a name, an assignee, and a conversation you can return to. Use an agent chat for a direct request, or a task when you want to track the work. See How work runs for the relationship between agents, tasks, flows, and workspaces.

Before you begin

Select the project and an available agent or team.

Create and follow a task

  1. Open AgentOps → Task and select Create Task.
  2. Enter a Task Name and describe the desired outcome and relevant context in The task description.
  3. Select Agent or Team, then choose the assignee. A name and an agent or team are required.
  4. Submit the form. Find and open the task in the task view, then inspect its conversation and status. Use the task’s message input to continue the work with additional context or a follow-up request.
  5. Check the response and any resulting files or changes. Review any approval request before deciding; see Approvals and recovery.
The task view also offers Create recurring schedule in its timeline view. Use that separate action when work should recur, rather than assuming a newly created task is a schedule. For a direct conversation, see Chat with an agent. Notifications may provide a link back to the task; see Inbox. If you cannot find the task or assignee, check the selected project and access and refresh the task view. If submission or subsequent work reports an error, inspect the task and any destination that might already have changed before retrying.
