Operation Center

The single place to review agent work, monitor activity, and access the outputs your agents generate.

Overview

The Operation Center is the hub for everything your agents and Personal Assistant do. Open it from the Operations item in the top navigation.

It has three tabs:

  • Review Queue — approve, edit, or decline pending actions
  • Activity — a live feed of everything your agents have done
  • Outputs — reports and documents generated by your agents (coming soon)

Review Queue

Every time an agent or your Personal Assistant proposes an action — sending a reply, changing a ticket status, creating a Linear issue, writing an internal note — the result passes through the review system. Depending on how each agent is configured, the action is either delivered automatically or held for a human to review.

Each review moves through a simple lifecycle:

  • Pending — waiting for a human to review
  • Approved — accepted as-is and delivered
  • Edited — modified by a reviewer before delivery
  • Declined — rejected; no action is taken
  • Drafted — saved for further editing later

Filtering and Scope

Use the filters at the top of the queue to narrow what you see:

  • Filter by agent to focus on a single agent or your Personal Assistant
  • Filter by status to focus on pending, approved, edited, or declined items
  • Filter by date range to review a specific time period

If you have personal reviews enabled, a Scope toggle lets you switch between agent reviews, Personal Assistant reviews, or both at once. A badge on the Review Queue tab shows how many Personal Assistant items are waiting for you.

Reviewing an Item

Click any item in the queue to open its detail view. You'll see:

  • The original context (ticket, email, chat, or scheduled trigger that started the work)
  • The agent's proposed actions, grouped by type
  • A trace of the tools the agent called to produce the result
  • Approve, Edit, or Decline buttons

Multi-Action Reviews

A single task often produces multiple actions. For example, handling a support ticket might combine:

  • Responding to the customer
  • Changing the ticket status (e.g., from Open to Pending)
  • Adding an internal note for the support team

Each action is reviewable independently. You can approve the customer reply while declining the status change, or edit the internal note without touching the others.

Actions are grouped into four tool categories to keep the review clear:

  • Respond — customer-facing replies
  • Status — ticket or record status changes
  • Organize — categorization, tagging, and prioritization
  • Internal — internal notes and comments

Bulk Actions

For high-volume teams, select multiple reviews with the checkboxes and choose Approve or Decline from the toolbar to clear the queue in one step.

Slack Reviews

If Slack is connected, reviews can also be approved, edited, or declined from an interactive message in your Slack channel. Actions taken in Slack update the Operation Center instantly, and vice versa — your team can work from wherever is most convenient. See Connecting Slack for setup.

Activity

The Activity tab is a live feed of every task your agents have processed, whether it was auto-approved or reviewed. Use it to:

  • See what agents are doing right now
  • Spot patterns in recent work
  • Drill into a specific task to understand how an agent reached its conclusion

Activity includes both agent tasks and Personal Assistant runs (if you have personal permissions enabled).

Outputs

The Outputs tab will collect the reports, documents, and deliverables your agents generate over time — think weekly summaries, exported analyses, and long-form content. This surface is in development; you'll see generated items here as agents produce them.

Review Modes

Each agent can be configured with one of three review modes that decide whether its actions go to the Review Queue or are delivered automatically:

  • Always Review — every action is queued for human review before delivery
  • Confidence-based (X%) — the AI evaluates its own confidence. Actions above the threshold are auto-approved; lower-confidence actions are queued for review
  • Autonomous — every action is delivered automatically

Tip

Start new agents in Always Review. Once you're comfortable with how they handle real work, move to Confidence-based and raise the threshold gradually. Switch to Autonomous only for tasks where mistakes are cheap.

Learning From Edits

When you edit an action before approving it, Symbi captures both the original and your correction. If Learn from Reviews is enabled for that agent, those edits are stored as a learned knowledge source the agent will reference in future tasks — so your corrections have a lasting effect on quality.

Info

The more you review and refine, the faster your agents improve. Most teams need fewer edits within a few weeks of consistent reviewing.
