Watching your exocorp

The daily check-in

A useful daily rhythm for a running exocorp is about five minutes. Use the installed packages’ status APIs or optional operator surfaces to scan four kinds of signal:

• Live agents — Who’s working right now, grouped by team. If something’s been running for a long time, it’s worth knowing.
• Heartbeats — Scheduled obligations that should fire on a clock. A heartbeat that’s been failing is the company telling you something is consistently broken.
• Teams with their health — Healthy, degraded, or unhealthy. A degraded team has something stressed; an unhealthy team has multiple problems compounding.
• Budget pressure — Overall budget bar plus the three most-pressured sub-budgets. Tells you if the company is running hot financially.

What to look at depending on what you're checking

• “Did anything need me?” — Pending decisions and alerts exposed by the package that owns them. A package may merge these into an inbox, but that UI is not part of the common runtime.
• “What's actually in flight?” — Query the owning package’s work or activity records. A package-owned UI may make them filterable by its own states and organizational model.
• “What's been shipping?” — Inspect completed activity in the owning package or ask a CEO-style agent for a summary when one is installed — see Asking questions.
• “What does my company know that it didn't yesterday?” — Inspect the records owned by the selected knowledge package: new reviews, doctrine, or summaries.
• “Where is the money going?” — Use Platform billing for hosted spend and package-owned budget controls for any company-local categories.
• “Who acted on what, when?” — The audit trail. For platform-level actions, the admin landing. For per-exocorp actions, the work item’s history surfaces every run and every decision.

The right cadence

For most operators settling into running an exocorp, the rhythm that works:

• Daily — Five-minute status and pending-decision scan. Resolve anything that came up. Read any flagged summary from the company’s selected coordination package.
• Weekly — Twenty-minute review. Inspect what shipped, what’s blocked, and any health or knowledge records exposed by installed packages.
• As-needed — When the CEO surfaces something, when an alert fires, when something feels off. The exocorp will pull you in when it needs to; you don’t need to pull yourself in routinely.
