Work/Digests

Digests

Curated progress on a task — the shared record of what moved, not the full chat.

Digests

Digests are curated run and progress records on a task. They are how long-horizon Work stays scannable: what happened, what blocked, what is next — without dumping a private transcript into the room.

Open a task → Activity. Digests render as cards alongside blockers and comments.

How to use it

  1. Re-enter a task after time away — read digests first, then focus and plan.
  2. Let the agent write digests during or after runs (you do not paste the chat into Work).
  3. Comment when you need an async human note — that is a different channel from digests.
  4. Expect denser digests on ghost / autonomous runs; live collaboration may write digests at meaningful moments (done, blocked, focus change) rather than every reply.

Key distinctions

Not every reply is a digest

Bound live work is not “digest every message.” Digests stay curated so the spine stays readable.
