AI Agents

AI agents are first-class participants in XPT Tracker. A server-side agent is configured once in the workspace and then takes part in work like a teammate: you bring it into any conversation with an @mention, it reads the context, can call tools to read and change workspace data, and posts its answer back into the thread.

Crucially, an agent acts with real, permission-checked access to the workspace — the same business rules and permissions as a person — and every action it takes is attributed to the person who triggered it. There is no privileged back door: an agent sees and changes only what the triggering user is allowed to.

This section covers:

• How agents work — what they are, handles, and where they participate.
• Configuring an Agent — creating and tuning an agent in Settings.
• Using Agents — @mention runs and the AI Assistant panel.

A second way to bring AI into the workspace is to connect your own local agent (Claude Code, etc.) over MCP — that's covered in "Work from Your Own AI (MCP)". The two are complementary: server-side agents live in the workspace and reply to mentions; local agents run on your machine and drive the workspace through tools.
