connect
Connect a dots.id account, verify Vibe, and unlock the workspace.
identity
One account can hold multiple dots users; each device chooses its own active user.
notes
Open a note once, keep adding silently, then close it.
If launch.md exists, txt appends to it. Otherwise txt creates it. Either way, ./name opens it for the conversation.
While launch.md is open, ordinary messages append. Routine saves stay silent.
Creates Archive only when an exact root folder does not already exist.
Outside open-note mode, a standalone message becomes a new dated note.
functions
Name a function with / or describe the outcome after a slash and space.
/ anything lets txt choose the required function sequence.
Imports a public HTTPS source into private Files. It does not publish the file or create a share link.
Successful routine writes use the read receipt instead of another bubble.
The current or replied-to note keeps receiving messages under its new name.
Move changes the folder only. The filename and active-note state stay the same.
Uses the full contents of the open note plus the direction after |. Use /ideate ./name | direction to target another note.
Direct Markdown-to-HTML rendering is deterministic and does not use a model.
Use /fx models to see allowed IDs. -design accepts a design-skill file or folder. Edit the txt source or skill and run /fx again; the manifest records the selected model for review and deployment.
Uses the current note, validates the standalone HTML with just-bash, and leaves the txt source editable. Use /view ./name compile to target another note.
images + brain
Send media, inspect workspace context, and discover shared skills or external tools.
The original stays in Files. Use ./name with an image to append the transcription to an open note and connect both.
txt reconstructs nodes, containment, labels, and arrows, then opens the raw Mermaid source as a diagram.
Lists only the integrations authorized for the current person. It does not run an external action.
txt reads the note directly, then Executor handles the external action under its connection and approval policy.
publish
Turn files, folders, or existing public links into publications and work with issues from Messages.
