See what an agent is doing on its Activity tab
The Activity tab answers what an agent is doing now, what it will do next and what it did in the last day, with its teammate messages and full log.
On this page
The Activity tab is where you check on an agent without asking it. It answers three questions in plain language: what is it doing right now, what is it going to do next, and what has it done lately. Underneath, the full log holds every line the agent recorded, for when the summaries are not enough.
Open the agent and click Activity in its tab rail.

Right now (1) says in one line what the agent is doing, for example:
- Ready and waiting for you, or Resting. Nothing scheduled recently. when it is idle.

Coming up#
Coming up (2) lists what the agent is scheduled to do on its own, soonest first. For each scheduled task you see:
- Its name and when it runs next, such as "in ~22h".
- How often it runs, in words, with the time zone.
- Where its results go, such as "Sends results to every chat channel", and "Set up by (agent name)" when the agent created the task itself, for example after you asked it for a daily reminder.
- A warning line if the task is unhealthy.
If the list says no Qoren-managed tasks are scheduled, the agent only works when you or a connection asks it to. To add or change schedules, see schedules.
