Notifications
Proof Points sends nothing on its own. There are no scheduled summaries, no digests, and no alerts when candidates are waiting. Every message you get is the result of a command you ran, and the Needs Review count in the app is the only signal that something is waiting.
Working Message
When: You run the extraction or scrutiny command in Slack.
What it contains:
- A private message that only you see, saying the work is in progress and the summary will land in the channel
Action required: None.
Extraction Summary
When: An extraction you started in Slack has finished.
What it contains:
- A header, "Proof extraction", posted in the channel where you ran the command
- The brand
- The number of new candidates saved, marked unverified
- The total number of candidates the source yielded, when it differs
- A reminder to run the scrutiny command to verify and score them
Action required: Open the Proof Points screen in the app and approve or reject the new candidates in Needs Review.
Scrutiny Summary
When: A scrutiny run started in Slack has finished.
What it contains:
- A header, "Proof scrutiny", posted in the channel where you ran the command
- The number of points verified and the number marked as duplicates
Action required: Review the candidates in Needs Review. Scrutiny does not make any of them usable.
Library Card
When: You run the lookup command.
What it contains:
- A header with the brand and the number of results, with the filters you used
- Up to 15 approved points with their wording, category, verified or candidate label, confidence, a star if starred, and attribution
- A note that more exist when there are over 15, with a suggestion to narrow the filters
Action required: None.
Scrutiny Result in the App
When: You click Run Scrutiny.
What it contains:
- A line on the screen reporting how many points were verified, culled, and demoted as duplicates
- Updated counts at the top
Action required: Review the survivors in Needs Review.
Failed Command
When: A Slack command could not finish, for example because no source text was given or the source could not be read.
What it contains:
- A private message to you naming the command and the reason
Action required: Fix what the message names and run the command again. If it keeps failing, contact support@agenteous.com.
