Configuration
Configure Bob's schedule, notifications, guardrails, and integrations.
Bob's behavior is fully configurable from the agent settings pages. Navigate to /app/agent to access Bob's configuration sidebar, where you can control when he runs, how he notifies you, what actions he is allowed to take, and where he routes work.

Only users with the OWNER or ADMIN role can modify Bob's configuration on paid plans. Team members with other roles can view the configuration but cannot make changes.
Schedule
Control when Bob runs analyses on your projects. You can configure monitoring windows to focus Bob's activity during specific hours or days, which is useful if you want analyses to run overnight or avoid peak traffic periods.
- Set a recurring schedule (e.g., daily at 2:00 AM, every Monday at 6:00 AM)
- Define blackout windows when Bob should not run automated analyses
- Trigger on-demand analyses at any time from the Chat or Analysis pages
Notifications
Set alert preferences for when Bob finds issues or proposes actions. You control which events generate notifications and where they are delivered.
Notification triggers include:
- New proposed action: Bob has surfaced an action item for your review
- Action executed: An auto-executed action has completed
- Action failed: An auto-executed action encountered an error
- Analysis complete: A scheduled or on-demand analysis has finished
- Score change: Your AI Optimization Score has changed by a configurable threshold
Delivery channels:
- In-app notifications (always on)
- Email digest (configurable frequency)
Guardrails
Define the safety boundaries that govern Bob's behavior. Guardrails ensure Bob operates within limits you are comfortable with, regardless of autonomy level.

Guardrails settings include:
- Autonomy Level: Advisory, Propose, or Auto (see Autonomy Levels)
- Risk Profile: Conservative, Balanced, or Aggressive (see Risk Profiles)
- Allowed Action Types: The execution methods Bob is permitted to use:
webhook: Send action payloads to a configured webhook URLgithub_actions: Trigger GitHub Actions workflows in your repository
- Action scope limits: Restrict which types of changes Bob can propose or execute (e.g., schema-only, content-only, or all)
Any action that falls outside your guardrail configuration requires manual approval, even if Bob is running in Auto mode.
Integrations
Route Bob's actions and notifications to external project management tools. Integrations let your team track Bob's recommendations alongside other work.
Supported integrations:
- Asana: Create tasks in an Asana project from Bob's action items
- Monday: Push action items to a Monday.com board
- Linear: Create Linear issues from proposed actions
- Notion: Add action items to a Notion database
Each integration is configured with:
- Authentication: Connect your account via OAuth
- Destination: Select the project, board, or database where items should be created
- Mapping: Configure how Bob's action fields map to your tool's fields (title, description, priority, assignee)
Integrations work with both Propose and Auto modes. In Propose mode, approved actions are pushed to your external tool. In Auto mode, executed actions are logged there for visibility.
