01 / Choose the space to work

Nothing is on
until you turn it on.

Connections start off. Each one says what it can reach. Files sees only the folders you pick, and every tool and destination has its own rule.

  1. 01

    Allow

    The tool or destination can be used without asking each time. Choose it for things you trust and use often.

    Allow
  2. 02

    Ask

    Vakyartha pauses and shows you the request before it goes ahead. Anything that writes, deletes or goes online starts here.

    Ask
  3. 03

    None

    The tool or destination is blocked. A new or unknown host is never granted on its own.

    None

Apps get the same three choices for their own tools and destinations. You review edits together and save them in one step.

What happens when I bind a chat to a folder?

Work happens on a safe copy of the folder. You review the changes file by file before any of them reach your real folder.

02 / A decision at the right moment

Know what
you’re saying yes to.

Allowed actions run within your rules. Actions set to Ask wait for you. Blocked actions stay blocked. You can answer approvals by voice, too.

This shows a review decision. Actual prompts depend on the action and the rules you set.

Drafts stay drafts

Content an assistant writes for an app stays an unreviewed proposal until you accept it.

Your Mac and the services you choose each have a part.

03 / Know where information goes

Know where your
information goes.

Your work lives on your Mac

Chats, artifacts, app data and usage are stored on your Mac. This website never receives them.

Services you connect may receive content

If you use an online AI service or connection, what you ask is sent to that service, and its own rules apply. With a local model, chat stays on your Mac.

Keys stay in the Keychain

Credentials are kept in the macOS Keychain. Each connected tool gets only what it needs.

04 / Stay with the work

Change direction.
See what happened.

See what happened

Every tool call is written to a log on your Mac. Tasks keep a record of what was done so you can check it and carry on.

See the cost

See what each answer is likely to cost, with simple charts. Spending limits are not available yet.

Check the installation

Doctor checks that everything is working and offers to fix what it can, after you say yes.

05 / More than a promise in a prompt

Checks in the code.
Room for your judgment.

Your rules are enforced by the app itself, not left to the model. Keys stay in the Keychain, connections reach only the places you allowed, and approvals cannot be skipped.

AI can still misunderstand a request or produce a wrong answer. Read consequential changes carefully. These controls reduce exposure; they do not make every action or answer safe.

Can a document or website override the rules?

Model text, tool output and fetched pages are treated as data, never as instructions. Requests still face your rules.

How are tools and apps installed?

Everything you add is checked before it installs, and nothing installs or updates without you.

Is anything still being fixed?

Yes. We are still tightening a few permission rules. Until they are closed, take care before connecting sensitive accounts or servers you do not trust.

Help, on terms you understand
