The ROI ledger and Agents right now widgets, and what their numbers actually mean
ROI ledger turns agent runs into hours and dollars saved, priced at today’s model rather than what each run actually used. Agents right now is a live control panel, and pausing one agent can pause every agent sharing its trigger.

Steps
- Add ROI ledger to the Dashboard to see hours and dollars saved this week or this month, per agent, alongside a token-detail breakdown.
- Open Edit time estimates on the same widget to change the minutes-per-task-type it uses; your numbers are saved to this machine and used from then on.
- Add Agents right now to see a live table: each agent’s state, its last action, its next scheduled run, and a token-budget bar, refreshing every ten seconds.
- Pause or resume an agent directly from its row, or click through to its filtered Activity log.
How to tell it worked
The ROI figure changes if you edit the time estimates, and a paused agent’s row shows as paused within a few seconds.
If it does not work
- The dollar figure on ROI ledger does not match what you actually paid at the time.
- It is not meant to. Cost is priced at whichever model is configured right now, not what each historical run actually used, and the widget says so directly. The hours are estimates you set, not measured time.
- You paused one agent and a different one stopped too.
- Expected, and the widget states it: pausing a schedule pauses every agent sharing that same trigger, not just the one you clicked.
- There is no pause button on an agent’s row.
- Only agents on a scheduled or file-change trigger can be paused this way. One triggered manually has nothing to pause.
