Loom

The Fleet panel

The Fleet panel is your control-room readout for a workspace full of agents. Open it with Ctrl+Shift+K (or the Fleet button in the title bar, or the command palette). It’s docked on the right, scoped to the active workspace, and entirely read-only and reactive — it reflects live state, it doesn’t poll or interfere. Drag its left edge to resize.

What it shows

Section titled “What it shows”

The panel is organized into sections, each backed by the coordination primitives in Coordinating a fleet:

  • Roles — the roster grouped by each pane’s role (builder, reviewer, scout, coordinator, any custom roles, and “unassigned”). Click a role to filter; click a pane to focus it.
  • Blackboard — the shared, per-workspace notes (key, value, who wrote it) set with loom note.
  • File claims — advisory locks agents place on paths so they don’t collide. A gated (held) path shows a ⛔ with a release button.
  • Input gates — panes whose inbound bus input is being held behind a human OK, with the reason and a release button.
  • Open asks — live loom ask request/response exchanges (who asked whom, the question, how long it’s waited) with a dismiss.
  • Usage (est.) — per-Claude-pane token spend and an estimated cost, read from on-disk transcripts, with a workspace total and a Refresh.

Needs-you approvals

Section titled “Needs-you approvals”

Separate from the Fleet panel, a “Needs you” strip docks at the bottom when an agent is blocked on an approval it has pushed to Loom (for example, a permission prompt). You can answer inline — the answer is written only to that pane — so you can clear blockers without hunting through the grid. This pairs with the amber attention border a pane raises when it needs a human.
