User lists five UX fixes for Dot agent: task visibility, unread noise, channels
carlosdponx · x · 2026-10-07
User simonsmith shares five concrete improvement suggestions for the Dot AI agent: a dedicated desktop sidebar view, a purpose-built layout (borrowing from Meta Muse) showing delegated threads and scheduled tasks in a right sidebar, no unread badges on threads the Dot manages, a "Channels" area aggregating conversations across Slack and other tools, and turning the phone icon into a voice-mode button. The list highlights agent products' core UX pain point: observability of delegated tasks.
