New feature
You can now steer the agent while it works
In Buildful you can add a note to a running task, and the agent picks it up mid-turn without starting over. It's the same kind of steering Claude Code and Codex users do in a terminal, for a task that runs in the cloud.
While a task runs, the box under the thread says "Add a note for the agent. It reads it at its next step." Type a correction or a missing detail and send it. Your note shows in the thread as a nudge card, and the agent's next steps follow it. Notes are text only.
Also on October 9:
- The task view shows the agent's web searches as steps, next to the files it read and the commands it ran.
- Your task list filters (status, repo, and who started the task) are remembered in your browser, separately for each team.
See how a background coding agent runs a task from start to pull request.
