State
Evidence-derived task classification
Waiting, running, partial, failed, unverified, attention, rolled back, and complete states come from required checks and authority closure, not optimistic model wording.

Category definition
A task-state dashboard operates the work users care about, not the event volume agents produce.
What the software does
Personal AI agent task-state dashboard software organizes autonomous work into accountable task objects. Each task connects the user's request, approval, artifact or item set, agent and runtime identity, temporary authority, execution events, verification, failures, rollback, closure, and next actions.
The dashboard differs from an activity feed or observability console. It does not ask users to infer current status from chronological events or debug low-level traces. It shows which tasks need approval, which are running, which are partial or failed, which remain unverified, and which still carry sensitive authority.
Core product promiseAt any moment, a user or operator can identify unfinished decisions, unresolved outcomes, and active sensitive access without replaying agent sessions.
The underlying evidence may come from conversation, identity, vault, browser, tool, hosting, messaging, and verification systems. The dashboard normalizes that evidence around state transitions while retaining links to the canonical receipt.
Core capabilities
From agent execution to an operating model.
Approval queue
Pending decisions show task context, consequence, artifact or item set, destination, requested authority, and expiry.
Risk queue
Access-open, failed rollback, policy divergence, and unresolved sensitive sessions remain prominent.
Remediation queue
Partial tasks expose bounded next actions such as fix DNS, retry one upload, verify delivery, or revoke access.
Operating view
Prioritize decisions and risk before completed volume.
Vendor account update
Execution blocked; temporary browser session remains active.
Website release
Hosting route healthy; custom domain returns 404. Access closed.
Client statement upload
Three files ready; portal upload requires approval for 6 minutes.
Calendar coordination
Meeting booked, all attendees confirmed, no access remains.
The dashboard follows the accountable lifecycle.
A production task moves through policy-defined states, and every transition retains attributable evidence for users, operators, and support.
Decide
Collect requests that need human approval, missing information, authentication, or policy escalation.
- Consequence and destination visible
- Exact artifact or item set bound
- Requested scope and duration explicit
Observe
Track meaningful milestones while the agent executes under bounded authority without turning the dashboard into a raw event stream.
- Agent and runtime identity
- Current stage and expiration
- Policy blocks and safe cancellation
Resolve
Separate complete, partial, failed, unverified, and rolled-back outcomes through independent checks.
- Required checks and evidence
- Explicit failed links or destinations
- Bounded remediation actions
Close
Confirm temporary authority and sensitive sessions are revoked before a task leaves the attention surface.
- Grant and session closure
- Runtime retention policy
- Final user-readable receipt
Team views
Different roles need different slices of the same task state.
USER
My decisions
Shows approvals, partial results, failures, open authority, and concise receipts without exposing operational noise.
OPERATOR
Needs intervention
Groups policy blocks, failed verification, provider errors, stuck tasks, and incomplete revocation with source evidence.
SECURITY
Authority state
Surfaces active sensitive grants, unusual destinations, agent identity, scope, expiry, and revocation posture.
SUPPORT
Customer evidence
Presents the user-readable task receipt plus deep links to relevant traces, delivery events, and correction history.
Buyer criteria
Evaluate operating clarity, not dashboard decoration.
| Capability | Strong evidence | Warning sign |
|---|---|---|
| Task correlation | Conversation, approval, authority, execution, checks, and delivery share stable identity. | Status depends on matching timestamps manually. |
| State derivation | Rules define required verification and closure by task type. | The agent chooses its own success label. |
| Risk prioritization | Access-open and failed-rollback states outrank routine completion volume. | The homepage leads with vanity completion metrics. |
| Remediation safety | Next actions create fresh policy-checked tasks linked to immutable receipts. | A retry button blindly reruns privileged execution. |
| Role-based views | Users, operators, security, and support see appropriate detail from one task model. | Every role receives the same raw event stream. |
| Evidence access | Concise summaries link to attributable source events with secret-safe redaction. | Claims cannot be traced or expose credentials. |
Production checklist
Minimum requirements before teams operate agents through the dashboard
Canonical task object
State survives missing messages, browser restarts, and out-of-order events.
Partial outcomes supported
Mixed success remains visible with specific failed checks.
Authority tracked separately
Execution completion cannot hide an open sensitive grant.
Independent verification
User-visible outcomes are checked outside the executing agent.
Immutable history
Corrections, retries, and remediations append linked evidence.
Channel synchronization
Dashboard state and conversational receipts remain consistent.
The best agent dashboard does not celebrate how much happened. It clarifies what remains unresolved.
Applied to Super
Super can pair conversational control with an accountable operating view.
Messages for users, state for operations
The text-message AI assistant can remain the natural user surface while the dashboard organizes tasks by waiting, partial, failed, attention, and complete states for repeatable operations.
For a computer-use cache, the dashboard can distinguish reusable safe state from active sensitive browser sessions. Security and operators can see open authority without reading every conversation.
When an AI agent builds websites, Super can show preview approvals, deployments, Render verification, custom-domain failures, rollbacks, and access closure in one task-state operating view.
FAQ
Questions about task-state dashboards
Is this just project management for agents?
It overlaps with task tracking, but adds agent identity, approval binding, temporary authority, execution evidence, independent verification, failure classes, and access closure that ordinary project boards do not model.
Does the dashboard replace observability?
No. Operators still need logs, traces, metrics, and profiles for diagnosis. The dashboard links relevant evidence into task state so users and teams can decide what needs attention.
How are custom states handled?
Products can add task-specific substates while preserving common accountable categories such as waiting, running, mixed outcome, unresolved authority, and verified completion.
Should completed tasks remain visible?
Yes, through history, search, and receipts. The default operating view should prioritize unresolved decisions and risk rather than completed volume.
What is the most important dashboard test?
Ask whether every active sensitive grant and every partial user-visible outcome can be found immediately without searching logs or replaying a conversation.
