Status Workflow

Alerts follow a defined status lifecycle. Each transition is recorded in the alert’s event timeline.

Statuses

StatusMeaning
OpenNew alert, not yet reviewed
AcknowledgedA parent has seen it and is aware
ResolvedThe issue has been addressed
DismissedDetermined to be a false positive or not actionable

Allowed Transitions

Open → Acknowledged → Resolved Open → Dismissed Open → Resolved Acknowledged → Dismissed Dismissed → Open (reopen)

Resolved is a terminal state — once resolved, an alert cannot be changed.

How to Change Status

  1. Open the alert detail page
  2. Click the status action button:
    • Acknowledge — “I’ve seen this”
    • Resolve — “I’ve dealt with this”
    • Dismiss — “This is not an issue”
  3. The transition is recorded with your user ID and timestamp

Event Timeline

Every alert has a full audit trail:

EventWhen
CreatedAI detected content and a policy rule matched
AcknowledgedA family member marked it as seen
ResolvedA family member marked it as handled
DismissedA family member dismissed it

Each event records who performed the action and when, with metadata including the original detection category and confidence score.
