The Board Agent never edits the canvas silently. Every proposed change appears as a card in the dock; nothing happens until you approve.
What an action card looks like
A typical card shows:
- Action title — for example “Generate image”, “Create frame”, “Move element”.
- Parameters — prompt text, target position, model.
- Preview — for generated content, a thumbnail of the result.
- Apply and Reject buttons.
Multi-step plans show a stack of cards in order. You can apply them one by one, or click Apply all at the top.
Apply, Reject, Modify
- Apply — execute the action.
- Reject — drop the action. The card disappears.
- Modify — tweak the parameters before applying. For text fields (prompts, names) the card becomes editable inline.
Auto-apply for a session
If you trust a series of low-risk actions (organising frames, renaming elements), click the Auto-apply toggle at the top of the dock. Subsequent actions execute as soon as the agent proposes them.
Auto-apply resets when the dock is closed.
Undo any applied action
Every applied action is a normal edit on the canvas history. Cmd / Ctrl-Z undoes the most recent one. Multiple undos roll back a sequence.
Action log
Click the clock icon at the top of the dock to open the action log — a chronological list of every action the agent took on this board, with timestamps and parameters. Useful for audit, useful for “show me what you did before I went to lunch”.
When the agent itself errors
If a tool call fails (provider 500, invalid parameters), the card flips to red with the error text. Common causes:
- Provider rate limit — wait a minute and retry.
- Missing API key — go to Settings and configure the relevant key.
- Tool not authorised — the persona does not allow that action. Switch to Board Agent, which has the full set of board tools.
