Channels

You don't only talk to the agent from the web panel. There are several channels to give tasks and receive results — all the same agent, same memory, same security model.

Web chat

The default channel: the Agent tab in the panel. Approval cards, artifacts and progress messages appear here.

Two-way WhatsApp

You can give the agent tasks from WhatsApp and receive results on WhatsApp — without opening the panel. There are two ways to connect:

• QR connect (Baileys): link your own number by scanning a QR; whatsapp_qr_send sends from that line.
• API: via the official WhatsApp API; whatsapp_send.

Send actions are T2 and subject to approval.

SMS

For short notifications and reminders (sms_send). Scheduled outputs like the morning briefing can be delivered to SMS too.

Voice

Live voice conversation with the "Hey SemAgent" wake word. Stack: LiveKit (self-hosted) + real-time speech-to-text + text-to-speech. You give tasks by speaking and get a spoken reply.

Email delivery

Outputs like reports, summaries and briefings can be sent by email (email_send, subject to the allow-list). It's the most common delivery channel for scheduled tasks — see Scheduling & briefings.
