The commentary-inbox pack teaches agents to ask useful questions, request approvals, and follow up on responses. Install it in a compatible agent and connect that agent to your Commentary account.
Commentary Inbox
One place for your agents to ask—and you to decide.
Your agents can keep working until they need your judgment. Inbox gives their questions, approval requests, and updates a durable home, with the context you need to respond.
Answer when you’re ready. Your agent retrieves the recorded response and continues through its own tools, even when the original chat is no longer open.
From agent work to your next decision.
Connect an agent to Commentary, ask it to send a question or approval request, then respond in Inbox. Each request carries its context and a clear next action. Relevant updates from your workspace reviews and other connected work can appear here too.
“When you need my input, send the question to my Commentary Inbox with the context and choices.”
Requests come from connected workflows; installing a skill alone does not generate items. Start with a real task and a question you want your agent to bring back to you.
When a quick answer isn’t enough, open a full document Review for anchored comments and revision rounds. Inbox brings the request to you; Review gives the work room for detailed feedback.
Choose how your agent connects.
Skills guide how an agent asks for input. CLI and MCP provide the connection to Commentary; you don’t need to set up every option.
CLI
Use authenticated terminal workflows to create requests and retrieve responses. The CLI fits local agent tools and scripts that need to keep track of a request beyond a single chat.
CLI interaction guide →MCP
Connect a compatible agent to https://commentary.dev/mcp, sign in, and grant the access your workflow needs. The agent can discover request tools and retrieve your response.
Your judgment. A response your agent can use.
Core Inbox is free. You retain approval authority. Agents retrieve recorded responses to continue their work; reading or replying to a request does not approve it. Come back to Inbox when your next question is ready.
