Feeds & reading

Refresh every six hours while this page is visible. Follow a story for five-minute feed checks. Category matches use headline words and feed tags; they are not source verification.

Up to four feeds, kept for this page session. Headlines are public source metadata; original publication or submission dates stay attached.

0 of 0 articles checked

The default feed is Hacker News via Algolia. HN times are submission times. Custom feed dates come from their publishers.

Connections

THEOB · KEYMASTER

Connections you control

Public links and News reads open on request without a connection prompt. Provider connections, globe image downloads and bounded Mapbox views retain their controls. Review permission separately from the latest observed result.

This browser session only. These controls cover News, manual weather snapshots, fixed globe images and the integrated bounded Mapbox view. Other map surfaces, public research and other providers remain outside this gate. No private credential vault is active.

Session approval: 15 minutes, up to 16 attempts for each checked exact scope. A map attempt is one view lease lasting at most 5 minutes. No future addresses or changed map scopes are included.

No inactive integrated connections yet. Use News, manual weather, globe imagery or Connect map to request an exact scope.

Session decision receipts (0)

Up to 120 recent local receipts; no credentials or approvals are saved across reloads. Local actor labels are not verified account identities.

Current Workspace

Arena Core

Mission board, quick create, local drafts, file intake posture, export previews, and a large open desktop canvas now sit in a usable shell route instead of being buried inside the long audit page.

1active lanes

Workspace View

Open arena view with mission cards, TheoB chat, visual board, and tool rail.

Organize

Future controls for size, importance, category, time, branch, source, and priority.

Trail

Breadcrumbs, provenance, receipts, and route memory stay available without cluttering the canvas.

Primary MissionControlled chaos, one stable surface

This is the dominant Arena field. Observatory, live feed, missions, files, agents, creative spaces, alliances, cacao, and whatever the user chooses can open here without route chaos.

ImportanceHigh

Future cards can be arranged by urgency, value, category, source, or workflow stage.

CategoryMission / Research / Files

Category grouping is visual only until shell state and persistence gates mature.

System Motion

Pendulum and gear motion will show when agents are thinking, loading, refreshing, or processing.

TheoB ChatVoice + visual conversation space

Voice scaffoldVisual scaffoldExpand with content

Ready for guided command

This area becomes the conversation, voice, visual reasoning, and agent coordination window. It should expand as content grows instead of forcing the user to keep pressing enter blindly.

Ask TheoB, assign agents, describe the mission, or drop context here...

Mission Boardactive-local

Use the organizer as the workspace home for missions, projects, notes, decisions, and milestones.

Quick Createlocal-only

Create local mission and project drafts. Refresh clears them until persistence gates mature.

File Intakemetadata-only

File intake remains scaffolded and safe. No dangerous processing is active.

Export Previewpreview-only

Preview export payloads and approval intent without creating files or downloads.

Browser Researchblocked

Supervised pair/team browsing is mapped but not active until session gates exist.

Organizer Manual Object Creation

Create local mission and project drafts

Add local-only organizer objects for missions, projects, notes, decisions, and milestones. Drafts stay inside component state only. Nothing is persisted, synced, processed, or written to memory.

Local-only scaffold:These drafts are not saved after refresh. This is deliberate. Persistence, memory writes, private ingestion, file processing, and account sync remain disabled until separate gates exist.

Browser ResearchBlocked

Supervised pair/team browsing is registered for future work. Browser runtime is still off. Fair information access doctrine applies: explore and search, do not scrape.

9 capabilities mapped

Lane State0 blocked

Active states remain visible so the shell can behave like an operating surface instead of a static report.

9 lane states tracked

Organizer Export Preview Shell

Preview export contents before any file action exists

Choose an export format and organizer lane to preview what would be included. This shell does not create files, download files, persist data, write memory, or sync anywhere.

Preview-only gate:This shell renders a safe preview object only. It does not create a Blob, create a file, trigger browser downloads, print, persist, sync, or write memory.

Organizer Export Approval Shell

Record export approval intent without creating files

This shell lets the operator review an export target and record local approval intent. It does not download, create files, print, persist data, sync data, or write memory.
