Notifications
A word from Origami when an agent needs you or has made something for you.

How it works
- When an agent is waiting on you, or has finished, while you are elsewhere, Origami sends a system notification. Click it to go to the tab.
- When an agent makes something for you in the workspace you are in, a toast says so with an Open button: an artifact created or updated, a card created, a review comment, or a reply to your comment or annotation.
- When an agent hands you a browser page to deal with, such as a login, a toast says "A page needs you" with Go to page.
- One toast shows at a time and goes away by itself. What still needs you, or went wrong, moves to the bell in the titlebar, which turns teal.
- Press the bell to see every workspace's notifications, sorted into Updates, Errors, From agents and Other. Clear closes all but the updates.
Good to know
- Turn either kind off in Settings › Agents, under Notifications: Notify when waiting for the system notifications, and Show what agents make for the toasts.
- The app's icon counts the tabs waiting for you, and bounces once when an agent needs an answer while you are elsewhere.
- Several things of one kind become one toast with a count.
- Closing an update in the bell skips that release.
