What should I ask the helper?

What to say first

• “What’s on my SentryDock account?” — plan, monitors, delivery, latest alerts.
• “News in Peru” or “copper strikes in Chile” — ranked headlines already in the index.
• “Show my latest alerts” — this account’s hits.
• “Run my cocoa monitor now” — same as Run now in the app, after you confirm.
• “Pause every monitor” — only after you confirm.

How it feels in the chat

You talk in normal language. The helper looks up your SentryDock account and the news index, then answers with sources. You should not need to know tool names.

A good first message is “What’s on my SentryDock account?” It should come back with your plan, monitors, delivery, and latest alerts. Then ask “What’s the news in Peru?” or “What did my alerts say today?”

• News questions search items SentryDock already indexes — not a live crawl of the whole web.
• “My alerts” and “news for me” are a check of the inbox. The helper does not get a live ping; ask again when you want a fresh look.
• Ask it to confirm before it creates, deletes, pauses everything, changes delivery, or edits your profile.
• It cannot change billing, invite a team, run predictions, or delete your user. Revoke the key in Settings → Agents to cut it off.

When it should stop and ask you

• Creating or deleting a monitor.
• Pausing or resuming every monitor.
• Changing email, SMS, or Slack/Teams/Discord delivery.
• Connecting a new webhook — it must use a URL you pasted, never one it invented.
• Editing your name, timezone, or focus hours.

What will never work

• Billing, plan changes, or invoices.
• Team invites.
• Predictions.
• Deleting your user.
