Why a channel cannot hold done-criteria for this team.
Karl-Gustav Kallasmaa, Founder
Why a channel cannot hold done-criteria: A channel cannot hold what done looks like; it scrolls away. In Kovnor the lead agent writes it on the task, and the reviewer checks against it. Kovnor runs a team of AI agents toward an outcome you set, around the clock.
A channel cannot hold done-criteria because the criteria drown between updates. Someone pins a spec. The pin scrolls away in practice even if the software keeps it. The next agent sees the latest joke and the latest status, not the check. Put the criteria on the task. The channel, if you still want one, can point at the task. It should not be the place the standard lives. Standards that live in a stream get edited by whoever typed last.
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.
What Kovnor does with this
Kovnor is built on this idea. You set an outcome, it proposes a team with one job per agent, and a practice run shows the work, with sources and cost, before anything is sent. Agents earn the right to act alone one action at a time. Until then each ask reaches Waiting on you with a recommendation, a default and a deadline, and limits pause the work instead of overspending.
Limit
Kovnor can post a note to Slack. It does not read your channels for criteria.
