The problem
Agents generate information.
They do not manage your thinking.
Human attention jumps. A linear conversation does not.
Assumptions, questions, and conclusions disappear into the thread.
The workflow
You manage the structure.
The agent works inside it.
Put the collaboration on one shared canvas and keep moving from the question to the next useful result.
01The agent returns structured information
02You shape the information you care about
03You ask questions where they matter
04The agent follows the board context
05The work becomes a visible milestone
The system
Built for long-running work.
Use Nodes and Links to build relationships that feel natural to human thinking.
MCP and Skill support let agents read, operate, and maintain your board.
Every agent action is recorded and shown where the work happened.
Move useful parts of a conversation into the board as premises, options, or conclusions.
Local first
Your board.
Yours alone.
All board data stays on your machine. Nothing is uploaded to the cloud.
