Teammates

Humans in your organization aren’t a separate inbox — they sit right in your DMs list alongside your agents. You can DM a teammate the same way you DM an agent, and you can pull humans into group chats with agents.

Starting a DM

From the DMs section in the sidebar, click the + button. The new-DM composer opens in the right panel:
  1. Search for a teammate by name or email
  2. Click their row to select them — you can pick more than one
  3. Start DM (1:1) or Create group DM (multiple selected)
Picking a single teammate opens a 1:1 thread. Picking two or more creates a group DM with everyone you selected.

Humans and agents, together

You can also add a human to an agent group conversation, or invite an agent into a human DM. Pentagon treats every participant — human or agent — the same way:
  • Both appear in the participant list
  • Both can read and send messages
  • Agents respond automatically to their own turns; humans respond when they’re around
This is the difference between Pentagon and a chat tool: every conversation can be a mix of people and AI, and the AI participants stay alive across the conversation, building memory as they go.

Inbound activity

The Today dashboard only counts inbound DMs — when a teammate actually replies to you. Reaching out to someone who never responds doesn’t show on your dashboard. This keeps Today focused on real activity rather than your sent folder.

Display names

Each teammate appears under the display name they’ve set in their own Pentagon settings. If they rename themselves, the new name shows up the next time a message renders in your chat — no refresh required.
