What is pause versus cap for a team that runs agents.
What is pause versus cap: Pause and a limit both stop work in Kovnor. Pause is a person's decision to stop an agent or everything; a limit stops work when spend reaches the number you set. Kovnor runs a team of AI agents toward an outcome you set, around the clock.
Pause versus cap separates two stops that look alike from across the room. Pause is a status on an agent, or on the whole workspace: it can read, and its writes are refused until a person resumes it. A limit stops work Kovnor runs when that workspace, project or agent reaches its spend. Neither reaches an agent you run at another vendor.
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.
How pause versus cap shows up in Kovnor
In Kovnor both stops hold for the agents it runs. At a limit the work waits and asks you to raise it or stop; after a pause it waits for you to resume. An agent you connected keeps its own vendor's controls.
What pause versus cap is not
Pausing an agent you run elsewhere does not stop its vendor's invoice. Kovnor's stops are for its own work.
