Some of the best questions to ask Lassie are the ones worth asking again and again—the checks you run every morning, every Friday, or before every show. A scheduled agent is a Lassie prompt that runs automatically on a schedule you set and reports back with its results, so those recurring checks happen on their own. You create, manage, and monitor scheduled agents from the Tasks tab in the Intelligence sidebar, without leaving the Intelligence panel.

The Tasks Tab
Open the Intelligence workspace and look to the sidebar—alongside your chat history and Document Library you'll find the Tasks tab. It lists every scheduled agent you have, and for each one shows:
Status—whether the agent is running on its schedule or paused.
Next run time—when the agent will run next.
Recent results—what the agent's latest runs produced.
That one view answers the questions you'd otherwise have to dig for: what's set to run, when, and what came back last time.
Creating and Editing an Agent
Create a new agent right from the Tasks tab. An agent is built from two things you control:
The prompt—what you want Lassie to do on each run, written the same way you'd ask in a chat.
The schedule—when the agent runs. Scheduled tasks can run hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly.
Both stay editable after the agent exists. If a check needs to ask a sharper question, or needs to run at a different time, open the agent from the Tasks tab and adjust its prompt or schedule—no need to rebuild it.
An agent’s results don’t have to go only to you. The create and edit form has an Also send results to section where you can add up to 10 email addresses—including people outside your company—and up to 10 user groups. Group membership is looked up at each run, so the list stays current as your team changes. Extra recipients get every successful run, whatever your own Notify me setting is.
Pausing and Resuming
When you don't need an agent for a while—the tour wraps, the busy season ends—pause it from the Tasks tab rather than deleting it. A paused agent keeps its prompt and schedule and simply stops running until you resume it.
Reviewing Run History
Every scheduled agent keeps its full run history, including the output from each run. Open an agent from the Tasks tab to look back through what it found and when—useful for comparing this week's results against last week's, or confirming a check actually ran.
From Your Inbox to the Results
When a scheduled agent finishes a run, its email notification links directly to that run's detail in the sidebar. Click through from the email and you land on the run's results—no hunting through the workspace to find what the agent produced. You'll also get a push notification when a run finishes, so you know the results are ready without watching your inbox.
