First time getting one on my gravel, tire is holding so sealant seems to have patched it. Can anyone advise on the optimal next step. Keep riding with it as is/take it out and patch with a kit/get a new tire?

Pull the nail out, stick a plug in it and ride on.

Take it out and plug it. It might seal on its own but you’ll loose less air and sealant if you put a plug in quick.

As the others are saying, best to take it out and close it up yourself — but I personally save plugs for when I’m on a ride. If I’m at home, I like to patch from the inside (I’ve previously used a tubeless-specific patch kit but I have a feeling it’s literally the same as a patch kit for tubes).
For what it’s worth, I have those same tires, and while people complain about how fast they wear out, I just took mine past 2,200 miles yesterday and they still refuse to die (although I did have to patch one that was experiencing a slow leak from an old puncture).

Terreno’s are such delicate tires. Came stock on my bike, had to swap em after a month. Wore out quick and would puncture so easily.

Pull it out and stick a plug in there. Don’t have plugs? Get some immediately! If you’re riding tubeless and you’re not also riding with plugs, you’re asking for the walk of shame sooner or later. A spare tube is to tubed tires systems what plugs are to tubeless – essential.

Had to patch mine from the inside not a few minutes ago. Seems good now
