Self Companion — chat with your context

Streaming companion on Hub and native apps: Coach, Analyst, Writer, or Friend modes with Life, graph, and memory context.

Before you start

Cloud Self sync on.
Training opt-out off for cloud LLM replies (Life ingest can still run separately).

1
Hub → Self → Companion tab (Mac/mobile: bottom nav Companion).
2
Pick a mode — Coach (actionable), Analyst (structured), Writer (drafts), Friend (casual); saved as self_companion_mode in cloud prefs.
3
Type or tap a starter chip; SSE streaming shows thinking steps then the reply with citations when available.
4
Follow-up question chips appear after each answer — tap to continue the thread.
5
Voice input: Mac uses local STT; Hub uses browser mic with Firefox fallback copy.
6
Discuss in Companion from Brief — opens chat with brief text prefilled in sessionStorage.

Chat threads persist server-side — load older messages with cursor pagination.
Companion respects training opt-out — enable Privacy → training off only if you accept limited cloud replies.
Live / CoPilot keyboard shortcuts are Beta · Mac only — not on Hub, Windows, iOS, or Android yet.
Errors ingest to Error Plane with surface=self for support correlation.
