Desk tour

Six pieces of the workplace before you brief your first folk.

1. Sidebar

Folks, rooms, automations, connections, and settings. Search covers names and message history. New creates a folk or opens a shared room.

2. Conversation

The work log. Replies, questions, approvals, tool progress, attachments, and failures stay on the thread. Pin, copy, reply, search, and retry from the message.

3. Tasks

Task starts a separate unit of work without losing the main thread. A task keeps its own status and result — useful for parallel or handed-off work.

4. Model picker

Each folk picks its own engine and model. Cloud CLIs and local engines sit in separate groups. The picker shows what this machine actually has installed.

5. Computer and Backstage

Open the folk's computer to choose where visual work runs. Open Backstage to watch the live turn tape and engine protocol.

6. Connections and routines

Connected apps become tools. Routines turn a good brief into weekday or webhook work.
