A cast of helpers, and you’re in charge
Instead of one chatbot that does everything, there’s a small cast. Each character has one job, its own shape and its own way of talking. The Manager sits in the corner of every screen and hands your requests to the right one.
Who’s who
Flat shapes with two dot eyes: no faces to read, no feelings claimed. You name your Manager (Sam calls it Juno), and you can rename any of them.
| Character | Job | Where you meet it | How it talks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manager | Your one place to ask. Takes any request and hands it to the right helper. | The corner of every screen | Calm chief of staff. Brief, warm, unflappable. Says what it did. |
| Planner | Builds your days and weeks around school, sport, work and sleep. | Today, Plan, Tasks | Exact and time-minded. Times, durations and trade-offs; numbers, not adjectives. |
| Tutor | Sits beside you in study sessions. Asks before telling. | Study sessions | Patient and curious. Asks before telling. Never writes assessed work. |
| Examiner | Marks practice and gives draft feedback against the criteria. | Sessions, exams, draft feedback | Fair and precise, in marking language. No praise, no adjectives. |
| Librarian | Files notes, sources and syllabus dot points so you can find them. | Library, Info Dump | Organised finder: found, filed, source, page. |
| Scribe | Helps you capture class quickly, then stays out of the way. | Class notes, quick capture | Quick and minimal, in fragments. Silent during class. |
| Coach | Looks at how you’re going and what to focus on next. | Progress, Goals | Honest and evidence-led, warm without fluff. Topics, not traits. |
| Archivist | Keeps History, so any change can be traced and undone. | History, To confirm | Never talks to you; files. Neutral, third person. |

The Manager: one place to ask
Ask in plain words
Open the Manager from the corner of any screen and say what you want: “Can Lit flashcards go after tutoring instead?” It hands the job to the right specialist and answers with a receipt: who did it, what changed, Show me and Undo.
When it’s faster to go somewhere or do something yourself, Ctrl + K opens the command bar, which can also pass a question to the Manager.

Four approval bands, decided by code
The AI can’t decide how much it’s allowed to do. Code puts every kind of change into one of four bands.
| Band | What happens | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Never the AI | You do it yourself. The cast can’t even offer. | Your AI key, your account, privacy settings, turning AI off, deleting your data |
| Preview first | You see exactly what would change, and accept it or not | Next week’s plan, a big rearrangement of the week |
| With a notice | It happens, and the app tells you what changed | Adding an excursion date from a web page you shared |
| With Undo | It happens, with Undo right there | Moving tonight’s Lit quotes to 8:15 pm, adding a reminder |
To confirm: nothing from in passing happens on its own
Things you mention wait for a yes
Things you tell the Manager directly happen straight away, with Undo. Things picked up in passing, from your notes, a quick capture or a web page, don’t: they wait in To confirm.
Each one is a row: what was said, what happens if you accept, who would act, how it applies and when. Accept it, decline it, or open it and pick what you meant.

Undo and History
Changes, by you or by the cast, go into History with who made them and when. Most can be undone from there, and the newest has Undo right on screen.

Code checks the cast
The characters work through the app’s own tools, the same buttons you use. That keeps them honest.
No made-up screens
The cast picks from a fixed set of parts the app already has. The app decides where things go and how big they are.
Only code says “Done”
A receipt comes from changes that really happened. If nothing changed, the cast can’t say it did.
Screens don’t wait for the AI
Opening a screen doesn’t call the AI. The cast only works when something changes, which keeps it quick and keeps your AI costs down.
What’s built, and what’s still to come
