The **Activity** page is the fastest way to see what your agents are doing right now. Every Slack thread, test run, and scheduled job becomes a task card. The board groups them into active work, recent completions, and errors so you can scan the workspace without opening every channel. Open it from the sidebar under **Activity**. The board polls every 4 seconds, so fresh work shows up without a reload. ## Columns | Column | What's in it | | ---------- | ------------------------------------- | | **Active** | Work still in progress. | | **Recent** | Completed work with no current error. | | **Errors** | Work that needs attention. | Each card shows the request, the agent, the person who started it, turn count, sensitive-data markers when relevant, and the latest update time. Cards are intentionally compact so the board stays useful when the workspace is busy. ## Filters Narrow the board with the controls above the columns: * **Agent** - show only tasks that involved a specific agent. * **Window** - default is the last 7 days; switch to a shorter or longer window when investigating. Filters are saved in the URL, so you can share a filtered view with a teammate. ## Stats strip Above the board, four cards summarize the current filtered view: * **Active** - tasks with in-flight work. * **Completed** - finished without any errors. * **Errors** - tasks with at least one errored activity. * **Total** - sum of the above. Use the strip as a quick health check. If Errors spikes, jump straight to the error column or open Observability for a deeper trace. ## Task detail Click any card to open the task detail page: * The original request and initiator * The assigned agent and status * Turns, tool calls, tokens, and latency * A trace of each response or tool call * A link back to the original Slack thread when available Long requests are shortened on the board, then shown with more context on the detail page. ## Replay failed work If a task failed, Activity shows a replay control. Replay reruns the failed turn in place, which is useful for transient backend interruptions, tool timeouts, or temporary Slack delivery issues. Replay only appears where it is safe and allowed for your role. ## Enabling Current installs enable Activity capture in `.env` by default. If you are running an older manual install and the board is empty, confirm the flag is present: ```bash theme={null} # in .env ACTIVITY_DASHBOARD=1 ``` Restart SlackHive after changing `.env`: ```bash theme={null} slackhive stop && slackhive start ``` ## Access control Who sees what on the dashboard depends on role: | Role | What they see | | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **superadmin / admin** | Every task across every agent. | | **editor** | Only tasks that touched an agent they created **or** were granted access to via agent access. | | **viewer** | Blocked entirely - the sidebar link is hidden and all three activity API routes return `403`. | Enforcement happens server-side on every request, so URL tampering (e.g. passing `?agent=`) can't bypass it. Agent access is managed on each agent's detail page → **Access** (admin/superadmin only). ## Retention Tasks, activities, and tool calls live in the same SQLite database as everything else (`~/.slackhive/data.db`). There is no automatic pruning today - back up the DB if you want a long-term record, or truncate the `tasks`, `activities`, and `tool_calls` tables directly when you need to reclaim space. ## Related Session traces, tokens, sensitive access, tools, latency, and replay.
