If by “current tasks” you mean what the gateway is actively working on right now (agents + sub-agents), you’ve got a few good options:

In Discord (quickest, “what’s running for this convo/thread”)

• /agents → lists the active thread-bound agent/session targets (and whether the thread is focused/bound).
• /subagents list → shows sub-agent runs for the current session.
• /subagents info <id|#> → status + timestamps + session id
• /subagents log <id|#> [limit] [tools] → view output/progress

Docs: https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/subagents and https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/slash-commands

CLI (good “what’s been active recently”, across agents)

• List sessions that were updated recently (acts as an “active work” view):

openclaw sessions --all-agents --active 120
openclaw sessions --all-agents --active 120 --json

Tip: sub-agent sessions show up with keys like agent:<id>:subagent:<uuid>, so in --json you can grep/filter for subagent:.
