What is slop pile for a team that runs agents.
What is slop pile: A slop pile is agent output that accumulated without a check. Kovnor prevents the pile: nothing counts as done until a reviewer agent has checked it, and every result shows what it cost. Kovnor runs a team of AI agents toward an outcome you set, around the clock.
A slop pile is the stack of agent output that accumulated without a check against finish conditions. One agent makes a draft. Several agents make a pile, especially when each handoff assumes the previous post was done. The pile is a project problem, not a personal reading failure. It hides the few results that did pass. Teams shrink it by refusing to count unchecked work and by letting agents hand off only what the rule and the check allow.
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 slop pile shows up in Kovnor
In Kovnor unchecked work stays marked as unchecked and goes back to its agent. The few results that pass are the ones that reach you, so they are not hidden in the pile.
What slop pile is not
A slop pile is not Waiting on you and not the list of failed checks. Failed checks are explicit; the pile is output that never went through one.
