App Overview
The Stallari app is the control and inspection surface for a local helper. The helper can continue running when the window is closed; the app lets you talk to it, inspect work, review state, and change controls.
Navigation Model
Section titled “Navigation Model”Stallari groups navigation by the question you are asking. Top clusters are universally fluent; deeper clusters use vocabulary you acquire as you go.
| Cluster | Question |
|---|---|
| Chat | What do I want my Chief of Staff to help with? |
| Home | Where do I start each session? |
| Today | What should I read or know right now? |
| Operations | What is the helper running, scheduling, and dispatching? |
| Analytics | What patterns are emerging across my work? |
| Status | What is the helper’s health and what needs attention? |
| Classifications | How is incoming context being routed and labelled? |
| Insights | What is remembered, observed, and searchable? |
| Marketplace | What packs and plugins extend the helper? |
| Forge | What am I authoring for the helper to use? |
Some clusters are still being populated as features ship; the leaf list above is stable and the screen table below names the leaves that have content today.
Core Screens
Section titled “Core Screens”| Screen | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Chat | Talk to your Chief of Staff and request work. |
| Today | Read the current personal slice when configured. |
| Digests | Read generated summaries from the vault. |
| Search | Query local knowledge through Lens. |
| Insights | Inspect remembered observations, decisions, and corrections. |
| Operations | Watch work that is currently running. |
| Activity | Inspect recorded work after it starts or completes. |
| Status | Check health, permissions, runtimes, indexing, and recovery actions. |
| Settings | Change controls and preferences. |
| Marketplace | Install approved packs and plugins. |
Status Is Not Settings
Section titled “Status Is Not Settings”Status is where Stallari names live state: helper unavailable, runtime missing, permission denied, encryption degraded, index stale, or plugin attention needed.
Settings is where you change controls: provider keys, plugin credentials, consent, account, helper lifecycle, and preferences.
When something needs attention, start in Status. When you already know the control you want to change, use Settings.
Menu Bar
Section titled “Menu Bar”The menu bar item gives quick access to the app and local helper actions. Depending on installation state, it may expose open, restart, setup, or quit commands.
Use the full app for configuration and review. The menu bar is for quick lifecycle access.
Built-In Guides
Section titled “Built-In Guides”The Guides surface opens this documentation from inside the app. It is useful when you need product context while configuring providers, plugins, permissions, or review workflows.
