This guide shows you how to put the AI agent to work on recurring documentation jobs — quality sweeps, freshness checks, and link checks — running automatically within guardrails you control. The result is documentation that largely maintains itself, with humans reviewing what matters.
Who this is for
Teams that want to reduce manual documentation maintenance without assigning someone to do it by hand every week.
Prerequisites
- A Doxbrix project with the AI agent enabled in the Workspace AI policy.
- Owner or Admin access to set agent autonomy limits.
Step 1 — Set safe limits first
Before creating tasks, cap what the agent can do in the Workspace AI policy (Settings → Workspace → AI policy):
Set Agent Autonomy → Maximum autonomy to Draft for review so the agent can draft and submit, but not publish on its own.
The agent is the heaviest token consumer. Set a Monthly workspace budget with an alert threshold.
Use the Agent tier override to balance depth and cost.
Step 2 — Create a weekly QA audit
In the Agent Control Center (/agent), open Task Templates and Scheduled Runs and add a task:
Pick QA audit — it scans pages against the five quality dimensions.
Suggest — the agent posts findings to the Human Review Loop without changing anything.
Use Content Scope to limit it to the right locales and statuses (e.g. include drafts or not).
Turn on Enabled and Email notifications.
Step 3 — Add freshness and link checks
Two more high-value tasks:
- Freshness task — finds pages past their review cadence. Run monthly in Suggest mode.
- Link check task — catches broken links before readers do. Run weekly.
Step 4 — Review agent output
The agent's work flows through the Human Review Loop and your normal review workflow:
- Open Recent Runs to see what each run did.
- Review the suggestions and drafts — approve, edit, or dismiss.
- Watch Docs Health improve as accepted changes land.
