AI Productivity

AI Diagnosis

Find out why an agent went quiet instead of waiting out the full ten-minute timeout: when a delivery to a terminal keeps failing for about two minutes, an installed checker AI reads that terminal's screen and classifies the wall — a quota limit, an upsell modal, a sign-in prompt. A chart seat with backup agents fails over on its own, and every other terminal gets the diagnosis as a notification so you can act.

Why You Need This

How this feature boosts your daily productivity

A stuck agent used to cost you the ten-minute timeout plus however long it took to even notice the terminal had gone dark — and then the guesswork of why. AI Diagnosis, under Advanced → AI Diagnosis, turns that into a one-line answer: an ordered checker chain reads only a genuinely stuck terminal's screen (a healthy agent is never checked, and a busy one mid-task is never mistaken for a stuck one), the stuck terminal's own provider is always skipped, and checkers run headless with restricted permissions in a neutral folder so they classify the screen and never touch your project. It is on by default behind a single one-time consent, with a "Manual timer — no AI" fallback if you would rather not disclose screen text.

How It Works

Get started in 4 simple steps

Leave it on — or turn it off

AI Diagnosis is on by default after a one-time consent. Advanced → AI Diagnosis lets you keep "With AI (recommended)" or fall back to "Manual timer — no AI".

A send keeps failing for ~2 minutes

When an agent stops accepting work and nothing moves for about two minutes, an installed checker AI reads that terminal's on-screen text — the stuck terminal's own provider is skipped so it never grades itself.

The checker names the wall

It reports what it sees — a quota wall, a sign-in prompt, an upsell modal — running headless and restricted in a neutral folder, walking an ordered checker chain until one answers.

Restore, then notify everyone

A chart seat with backup agents fails over on its own instead of waiting the full ~10-minute timeout, and every other terminal gets the diagnosis as a notification.

The manual way vs. the 1DevTool way

The Hard Way

# an agent quietly stops accepting work
# nothing moves for the full 10-min timeout
# work out which terminal went dark
# guess why: quota? sign-in? an upsell modal?
# restart it by hand and hope

The 1DevTool Way

A checker AI reads the stuck screen after ~2 min
It names the wall: quota, sign-in, upsell
A seat with backups fails over on its own
Every other terminal gets the diagnosis as a notification

Why It Matters

The productivity impact of having ai productivity built into your workspace

No More 10-Minute Silences

A seat with backups fails over on its own after about two minutes, so a stalled agent stops costing you the full ~10-minute timeout before anyone notices.

The Reason, Not Just the Symptom

The checker names the actual wall — quota, sign-in, an upsell modal — instead of leaving you to guess why a terminal went quiet.

One Diagnosis, Whole Team Informed

Every other terminal gets the finding as a notification, so a fix learned in one seat is knowledge the whole team shares.

Careful by Design

Checkers run headless in a neutral folder and skip the stuck terminal's own provider, and the whole thing stays behind a one-time consent.
