Why did my task take so long?
The task finished, but it ran much longer than the usual estimate. Common reasons: the brief was open-ended so the team did more thorough work than expected, a connected tool was slow and every step had to wait, the brief asked for several deliverables in one task, or the work genuinely needed that long.
What should I do about it?
Check the Task row in Work. It distinguishes verified progress, a concrete next check, a named pause, and a Task with no fresh evidence. Open the row and ask Astra for the remaining gap and next step. If the next similar Task should be faster, narrow the brief: ask for one deliverable instead of three, and say "skip deep research, use what you already know."
What if a connected tool is consistently slow?
Go to Connectors and reconnect it. A fresh connection sometimes restores normal speed.
What if the same kind of task keeps running long?
Message Astra with the task link and she'll dig into the pattern. If none of this works, she'll loop in support.
