Agent pushes and review
What happens when an agent proposes terms, and how a person stays in control.
How a push works
- 1The agent pushes changed or new term records. Termbanks stages them; nothing is written.
- 2Termbanks aligns new records with existing concepts (in the collection, the workspace, then the public bank) and finds conflicts. No model runs on the server; every step is deterministic.
- 3It compares every term with the bank. A term the concept already has is left out. A term that differs from the bank's term for that concept and language becomes a question for a person. New terms are added.
- 4Questions it may not settle on its own become review items. Items the agent's level allows it to decide are decided with the recommended option and recorded as decided by the agent.
- 5When nothing is open, the push is committed as one change set, by a person or by an agent allowed to commit.
Pushes are atomic: the whole change set commits, or nothing does. A committed push can be reverted as a unit.
The review page lists every term the push would add, so you see exactly what changes. A concept keeps one preferred term per language: choosing a new one makes the old one an admitted alternative, kept in history.
Review items
| Item | Question | Who can answer |
|---|---|---|
| Align | Is this new term the same concept as an existing one? | Draft level and up, or a person |
| Conflict | Someone changed this term after the agent pulled it; whose version wins? | Curate level and up, when the other side was not reviewed by a person |
| Protected | The agent wants to change a term a person reviewed | Steward level, or a person |
| Differs from the bank | The agent proposes a term unlike the bank's for this concept: use the bank's, the agent's, or keep both | A person only |
| Limit, merge | The push exceeds a limit, or suggests merging concepts | A person only |
Two ways to review
- On the web: open Review. It lists open pushes and terms agents committed that no person has reviewed yet.
- In chat: the agent shows the open items and sends your answers on your behalf. These are recorded as decided by you through the agent, never as a verified web review.
A collection owner can also set an agent policy: whether agents may commit at all, how many changes a push may hold, and which languages they may touch.
