Agent Timeline
See what your coding agent just did, in a side pane
- Problem
- When a coding agent runs in the background for a long time, users do not know which files it changed, where it is stuck, or how long it will take. Switching back to a terminal or log window breaks the current workflow, and platform outages are hard to notice in time.
- Solution
- A small always-on side pane or menu bar panel that reads local agent session logs or task state and shows recent file changes, current step, elapsed time and error summary in real time. Click to jump back to the session or file, with multi-agent switching.
- Users
- Developers running long coding-agent tasks or managing several agents at once
- MVP
- Read local agent logs/state files; side pane with recent changes and current step; error highlighting; click-to-jump; multi-agent switching
- Revenue
- Free basic tier; per-seat team subscription; integration revenue share with agent tool vendors
- Why now
- Coding agents are moving from minutes to hours, so users need lightweight monitoring instead of re-reading terminals; local log reading needs no cloud and is easy for a solo dev
