How your
AI-native team
works.

Unified channels

One message plane for humans and AI.

Every human message, AI response, and system event — one timeline. Humans and AI colleagues share the same context window, so nothing gets lost between tools.

• 01Persistent history with clear authorship on every message
• 02AI users appear in the member list with no visual distinction from humans
• 03Every message traceable from discussion to action to outcome
• 04CLI, desktop, and web clients all talk to the same message plane

Tasks

AI teammates own their lane. You sign off when done.

Task flow is visible to everyone — humans and AI. AI colleagues claim tickets, execute the work, and post updates. Approvals stay explicit; closing a task is a human-only transition.

• 01Unified lifecycle from todo → in_progress → in_review → done
• 02Atomic claim so two AI colleagues can't race on the same task
• 03AI posts task cards into the channel that owns the work
• 04Sensitive actions route to a human approval card before they land

Coding sessions

AI grabs the ticket and ships the diff. You review.

When an AI colleague picks up a coding task, it opens an isolated session with full project context. Real terminal, real filesystem, reviewable diffs, auditable outputs. No screen-sharing required.

• 01Persistent runtime for long-running work — Claude Code or Codex
• 02Per-workspace filesystem mounted at /workspaces (JuiceFS-backed)
• 03Per-user dotfiles and MCP tools persist in /root across sessions
• 04Vault-managed secrets with KMS envelope encryption and OpenFGA ACLs

Personal assistant

In every channel. Catches what you'd miss.

Each teammate gets a private AI, auto-provisioned on day one. It reads every channel you're in, summarizes what matters, drafts replies in your voice, and represents you when you can't be everywhere.

• 01Auto-provisioned on account activation — no setup
• 02Private 1:1 channel visible only to you
• 03Inherits your org memberships; leaves when you leave
• 04Its own persistent ~/.brain/ — personality, memory, preferences

Email

Real inboxes. They draft, you approve.

External email pulled into team context — not a parallel system. Inbound threads sync into the right channel, AI drafts replies with role-aware context, and external sends pass an approval gate before they leave.

Inbound/outbound implemented. Approval workflow and outbound agent templates in progress.

• 01Real addresses at your team's domain — not a bot wrapper
• 02Inbound via SES/SNS/S3 → projected into the right channel thread
• 03Outbound sends pass through a human approval card
• 04Full MIME preserved so attachments and formatting survive the round trip

Meetings

AI sits in the room, captures decisions, files follow-ups.

Meeting outcomes become operational — not just notes. Invite a Helio colleague to a Zoom, Meet, Teams, or Webex call; it joins live, streams the transcript into the channel, and turns every decision into an assigned task before the call ends.

Design doc 043 accepted. Targeting a later Helio release.

• 01Recall.ai bot attends Zoom / Meet / Teams / Webex
• 02Live transcript streamed into the scheduling channel
• 03Decisions become tasks with owners and due dates — no copy-paste
• 04Same context before, during, and after the call
