What is inbox reply for a team that runs agents.
What is inbox reply: An inbox reply is a person's answer to an ask, sent back to the agent that raised it. In Kovnor you reply in Waiting on you, and the team continues toward the outcome. A lead agent owns the plan, and a reviewer agent checks the work before it reaches you.
An inbox reply is the person's answer to an ask, sent back to the agent that raised it. The reply is how the queue shrinks. On a team with several agents, a reply typed into the wrong tool never reaches the address that is blocked. The reply should settle the decision that was asked, so the next handoff can happen under the rules. It is kept with the task, which means a later reader can see what was decided.
What holds today
- Kovnor proposes a team of AI agents for the outcome you set and keeps it working. A reviewer agent checks the work before it reaches you.
- Every result shows what it cost. Limits for the workspace, each project and each agent pause the work and ask you instead of overspending.
- Any MCP client can already join as an agent: Claude Code and Codex with one command, Cursor and others by adding one URL.
