Claudia

Claudia is the assistant built into the platform. The idea behind her is the idea behind everything else here: nothing is programmed, it is configured — and configuring can be a conversation.

Back office → System → Claudia.

The one thing to understand first

Claudia does not have her own way in.

Every action she takes goes through the same domain service the back office uses, as a specific person, with that person's permissions, in that person's organization, and it lands in the activity trail under her signature.

She cannot exceed the operator

The user she acts as is fixed by the server when her tool server starts — it is never something the model can pass as an argument. There is no tool call that can change who she is, because who she is was decided before the conversation began.

That single decision is what makes the rest safe: an assistant with more access than its user is not a tool, it is a way around the permission system.

What she can do

Roughly everything the back office can, because her tools are the back office's services:

Structure

Content types, fields, field groups, displays, listings, taxonomy, menus, media types, forms, addresses, meta tags, workflows.

Business

Partners and CRM, documents, inventory, projects, helpdesk, HR, mail, campaigns, registers, accounting configuration.

She can also administer herself — her settings, her briefing, her model and budget, which tools are switched on, her preset prompts, and the seats. Those tools carry the same permission the Claudia admin pages do, and they are write-only for secrets: no tool ever returns an API key or a seat token.

Tool parity

Every agenda exposed to Claudia has to be exposed completely: if she can create a thing, she can also change it and delete it.

Why a half-exposed agenda is worse than none

A capability that can create but not delete strands whoever used it halfway — they now have records only a human can clean up, made by an assistant they were told could manage them. A test enforces the parity, so an agenda cannot be added to her surface in half.

Refusals are answers, not crashes

When a service refuses her — validation, permissions, a boundary — she receives a structured refusal naming the field and the reason, and she corrects herself. She never sees a traceback, and a refusal is never converted into something that looks like success.

This matters more than it sounds: an assistant that cannot tell "refused" from "failed" will retry a permission error forever.

Settings

Setting Decides
Edition Free or paid
Signature The name her actions are attributed to in the trail
Persona, greeting, extra instructions How she talks and what she always keeps in mind
Default model Which model answers
Monthly budget The ceiling, with a warning threshold
Disabled tools The agendas she may not touch at all
API fallback Off by default, and a deliberate choice

The tool surface is yours to narrow

Disabled tools is the switch worth knowing. If an agenda should never be touched by an assistant in your firm — accounting, say, or mail — switch it off and it disappears from her surface entirely. She cannot ask for it back.

The morning briefing

Claudia can write a briefing on a schedule: what arrived in the mail, which invoices are due, what is still a draft, what the calendar holds. You choose the days, the time, the model, and which of those four she includes.

It runs as a named user, so the briefing sees exactly what that person sees — a briefing that could read more than its reader would be a leak with a friendly tone.

Preset prompts

A prompt you keep re-typing becomes a preset: a name, the prompt, optionally its own model, and optionally a schedule. Scheduled presets also run as a named user.

Memory

Claudia keeps a memory per organization — the standing facts about how your firm works, so you do not repeat them every morning. It belongs to the organization, like everything else, and it does not cross to another.

Cost

Every conversation records its tokens and its cost. The monthly budget is a ceiling with a warning at a percentage you set. Licensing is per seat, one to one with the people using her.
