Dashboard Reframing: AI Agent Visibility

Why we did this

The dashboard was built around company data leaving for vendors. Qpoint now wanted to show what AI agents do: who ran them, what they touched, and whether it was safe.

What happened

A list of everything Qpoint can observe in an agent session, ten kinds of inventory item with defined fields, and a first wireframe of the session inventory.

Before → afterSessions are no longer listed under one agent; one list holds every session across the company, filterable by person, agent, machine, model and key.

How we got here

Each change, traced back to the conversation it came from. A solid mark means the record names the source; a dashed one was matched by the draft and waits for review.

Someone said

From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.

We decided

bob-wire-c5-D1 Settle the data model before designing any UI: research, then inventory items, then typed models, then brief and wireframes. — Mark Parson

So now

Sessions are no longer listed under one agent; one list holds every session across the company, filterable by person, agent, machine, model and key.

Someone said

From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.

We decided

bob-wire-c5-D2 Merge overlapping entities: AI endpoint folds into Model; tool invocation and MCP call become one Tool Call; agent tool and skill become one Agent Capability; LLM Turn shows only inside a session. — Mark Parson

So now

Everything a session touches is sorted into ten kinds of item in five groups.

Reframed the dashboard around AI agents

Wrote the reframing prompt (the three value propositions and the first inventory list) and edited the reframe brief through several passes of commits. The record names no one; every commit in this cycle is authored by Mark Parson (git), so the credit is matched from authorship.
