Set the live-feed verbosity

When you watch a task in a live or follow session, the verbosity (density) dial decides how much of the agent’s work the feed shows. It has two values:

  • Reduced — the default. A calm feed: the agent’s answer, the PR or result, the terminal and completion lines, media, your interventions, and memory lines. It suppresses the agent’s step-by-step thinking and the tool-call detail.
  • Chatty — the full feed: everything Reduced shows plus the agent’s thinking and the complete tool detail.

The setting is persistent and layered. A per-linked-chat-account override (set on Telegram or Discord) sits over your user default (set on the web terminal), which falls back to Reduced:

account override (Telegram / Discord)
?? user default (web terminal)
?? reduced

So you can keep a lean web feed but a chatty Telegram feed — or the reverse — and a brand-new account with nothing set resolves to Reduced.

The web terminal’s density command sets your user default — the value every new session opens at when no chat-account override applies.

  1. Open the web terminal at /cli.

  2. Set the density:

    density reduced # the calm default
    density chatty # the full feed, with thinking and tool detail
  3. Run density on its own to see the current value:

    density

The change persists as your user default, so your next live or follow session opens at the density you chose.

Override it on a chat account (Telegram / Discord)

Section titled “Override it on a chat account (Telegram / Discord)”

On a linked Telegram or Discord account, /density sets a per-account override that sits over your user default — and applies at once to an open follow session on that surface.

In a chat with your linked bot:

/density reduced # calm feed for this account
/density chatty # full feed for this account
/density # show the current value

The override is remembered for that account, so its follow feeds keep that density until you change it. Clearing it falls back to your web-terminal user default, then to Reduced.
