Every Sunday morning \u2014 before the week cranks up \u2014 I spend 15 minutes reviewing my AI agent stack. Not to babysit it. The system runs itself. But to make sure the infrastructure is healthy, the queue is loaded, and nothing is quietly failing in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are running any kind of AI automation setup, this is the most leveraged quarter-hour of your entire week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is exactly what I check \u2014 and why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First stop: the inbox. My agents escalate anything outside their swim lane here automatically \u2014 partnership emails that need a human response, finance items, anything ambiguous. Most Sundays there are two to five flagged items. I clear them fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What to look for:<\/strong> anything sitting in “Awaiting Approval” or tagged “Operator Review Needed.” If an agent is confused about something, the inbox is where you find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I pull up the daily watchdog report \u2014 a summary of every agent run from the past 7 days. Green is pass. Yellow is an intentional skip. Red is a failure I need to investigate before Monday hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I am not looking for one-off errors \u2014 those happen. I am looking for recurring<\/em> reds on the same skill. Two consecutive failures on a cron job means something structural broke, not just a fluke API timeout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This past week: two Metricool auth errors for Bluesky and TikTok. Platform disconnections. Sixty-second fix to reconnect in the dashboard. Done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I open Airtable and scan the Keywords table. How many items are sitting in “Queued” status? If the queue drops below five, I add new keywords before I close the laptop \u2014 usually pulled from recent market intelligence sweeps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I also skim the Social Queue. My agents generate social drafts throughout the week<\/a>, but a quick human scan before they auto-post catches anything weird before it goes live.<\/p>\n\n\n2.
