Tasks
Tasks are the live work history for an agent. Use them to see what the agent has run, which tasks are still active, and where a task succeeded, failed, or needs attention.
- 01Open the agent's Tasks area.
- 02Filter by status, tag, or recent activity.
- 03Open a task to review its timeline, messages, tool calls, and result.
What tasks show
- Status: Whether a task is running, waiting, successful, or failed.
- Timeline: The messages, tool calls, and outputs that led to the result.
- Detail: The task context you need to debug or review a run.
- Evals: Performance and classification of a task against set criteria.
From the Tasks view, you can start new chats, provide follow-ups on open tasks, and continuously evaluate agent performance.
Chat attachments
Attach files to a new chat or a follow-up message. Hosted agents accept files up to 1 GiB each. Videos larger than 25 MiB are added as workspace files for the agent to work with.
Upload progress appears beside each attachment. Hosted uploads can be cancelled and retried within 24 hours while you remain signed in. After a reload, select the original files again; for a new chat, first choose Resume unfinished upload. Brainbase checks each entire file before resuming. Send the message once its attachments are ready. Signing out clears the upload recovery information saved in this browser. After signing back in, select the files again to start a new upload.
Downloading a hosted attachment from a sent chat message returns the original upload for as long as the task exists. To download a version the agent has edited, open the task's Files tab instead.
Task files
Use the task's Files tab to browse the workspace and download current contents, including the agent's edits. For hosted agents, files outside Shared/ support uploads and downloads up to 1 GiB per file, with the upload recovery described above.
Files under Shared/... use the shared-folder limits: uploads up to 25 MiB and downloads up to 50 MiB per file. Shared uploads do not resume after a reload.
When to use Tasks
Start with Tasks when you want to understand what happened in a real run. It is the most direct view for debugging behavior, reviewing quality, or following up on work the agent already performed.
