Skills

  • Built-in Agent Tools

    Runs shell commands, reads and edits files, searches, and fetches web pages as model tools, with approval before each call runs.

  • Intent Validation

    Grades every tool call with an LLM judge running your model, giving a risk assessment and evidence before the call runs.

  • Parallel Workstreams

    Runs parallel agent workstreams across cluster nodes, routed by the console's rendezvous proxy and shown on a live dashboard.

  • Connect MCP Servers

    Connects external MCP tool servers with native deferred tool loading, or BM25 tool search as a fallback for other models.

  • Discord and Slack Channels

    Routes conversations from Discord and Slack to agent workstreams through the Turnstone channel gateway and its adapters.
