Review

Review gathers everything that waits for your decision in one queue, so you can answer agents without opening each conversation. Review is available only in the app.

App
Review
  1. Select Review in the dock, below Running. Its badge counts the items an agent or a person waits on.
  2. Select an item in the queue. The pane shows what it asks, who asks, and the conversation or project it concerns.
  3. Choose the item’s approve, edit, or reject button, or Skip to come back to it later.

The queue holds:

  • agent approvals and questions that agents ask with ask_user
  • requests from teammates’ agents and messages held for you
  • plugin and MCP access requests
  • coordinator decisions
  • Slack bot approvals
  • lessons proposed for your memory files

High-risk items come first, then the oldest. A skipped item moves to the end. All, High risk, and Overdue filter the queue, and an item that has waited 30 minutes counts as overdue. Proposed lessons wait for nobody, so they never become overdue and the dock badge does not count them.

Hansard holds each decision for four seconds before it sends it. Select Undo, or press Z, to cancel it in that time.

Key Action
A Approve
E Edit, or answer with a note
R Reject or dismiss
S Skip
Z Undo the decision Hansard is holding

A question from ask_user takes a pointer press to approve: A only selects Approve, as in its own dialog.

Each decision goes to the same place as an answer given elsewhere, such as the question’s dialog, a paired phone, or the Slack bot. The first answer counts. See Agent messaging, Skills, plugins, and MCP servers, and Memories for each kind of item.
