IT OPS

Agent-Driven Seat Reclaim Triage with Usage Context

An agent reviews idle-seat candidates, gathers usage and role context, drafts a tailored reclaim recommendation per user, and asks the manager to confirm before any revoke.

What it does

Instead of a flat idle-days filter, an agent examines each flagged seat with context: recent activity trend, the user's role, and whether the tool is seasonal. It drafts a reasoned keep-or-reclaim recommendation per user and presents it to the manager for the final call.

When to use it

Use it where a blunt threshold causes friction, such as tools used heavily only at quarter-end or seats held by execs who log in rarely but must keep access. The agent adds judgment so managers get a recommendation, not just a raw list.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule starts the triage run.
  2. 2The agent pulls idle-seat candidates and their usage history from Airtable.
  3. 3For each candidate, it weighs activity trend, role, and tool seasonality to form a recommendation.
  4. 4It drafts a per-user keep-or-reclaim rationale.
  5. 5The agent posts each recommendation to the manager in Slack and requests confirmation.
  6. 6Confirmed reclaims and overrides are written back to Airtable with the agent's reasoning attached.
