# Pod conversations

The **Conversations** tab lists conversations created in a Pod. Every Pod member can see and contribute to them. Conversations are indexed automatically, so Agents can search and refer to earlier Pod discussions.

## Start a conversation

1. Open the Pod and select **Conversations**.
2. Write your message and type **@** to mention an Agent.
3. Select the Agent and press **Enter**. The conversation is created in the Pod and visible to its members.

Mentioning an Agent prompts it to respond. Mentioning a teammate notifies them. If the person is not yet a Pod member, the interface prompts you to add them; the required Pod role still applies.

Agents can also create conversations, post updates, or share results in a Pod. A configured trigger or scheduled wake-up can have an Agent use the Pods skill to find the target Pod and post relevant context.

## Find a conversation

In a Pod with multiple members, use the conversation filters:

| Filter             | Shows                                                   |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Mine**           | Conversations where you have sent a message.            |
| **Group**          | Conversations involving more than one person.           |
| **All**            | Every conversation in the Pod.                          |
| **Hide triggered** | Hides triggered-Agent conversations from your own list. |

**Hide triggered** is a personal preference for that Pod; it does not hide conversations from other members. Triggered conversations have a **⚡** before the title. Use the search bar above the list to search conversation content across the Pod.

## Join and set notifications

For an Open Pod, select **Join the \[Pod name] Pod** at the bottom of Conversations to join and participate. A Restricted Pod has no join button; a Pod Editor must invite you.

Notification preferences are set separately by each member for each Pod. Open the Pod, select **...** in the top-right corner, then choose **New conversations: All or Never** and **New messages: All, Mentions only, or Never**. Configure notification channels such as in-app, Slack, or email in your profile settings.

A Pod conversation is a shared collaboration record. Check the relevant source system separately when a message reports that an external action is complete.
