Executors

Executors run background work while the foreground conversation continues. Nova owns task state, permissions and result delivery.

Executor	Purpose	Status
Coding	Write code, edit files and run commands in an approved project	Codex app-server integrated
Loop Camera	Observe a selected camera and report when a condition is met	Native camera and independent vision model integrated
GUI-use	Operate graphical interfaces across applications	Planned; no available setup guide yet

Loop Camera is the reader-facing feature name. Runtime uses the vision controller with internal watch / guard executors. It is separate from conversation vision, which captures one frame for a submitted turn.

Delegated work is now a durable Task: it is visible on the Tasks page with a goal and acceptance criteria, is verified against that criteria before Nova marks it complete, and its control can be taken over by the user or handed back to Nova at any point.

New executors reuse dispatch, approval, progress, cancellation and result handoff. See onboarding and the executor contract. GUI-use plans are in the roadmap.
