Capture
Write a thought, tension, or possibility before it needs a category.
The Duet loop
Let the thought stay unfinished until it earns a next move.
Duet separates the private work of understanding from the shared work of alignment—without losing the chain of reasoning between them.
Inbox
See what needs a next move, a spec, a decision, or more clarity.
Focus
Return uncertainty to the Idea field as a clear question or short brainstorm.
Project
Publish durable context when it becomes useful to the group.
Capture
Start with what is true now.
The Idea field does not demand an owner, due date, or project at the moment you are thinking. It keeps raw context available while the signal is still taking shape.
No per-note action pressure
Capture remains a writing surface, not a miniature task board.
Processed thoughts compress, not disappear
The source becomes quiet historical context after it has informed a decision.
Interpret
Give clarity one deliberate home.
Inbox is the translation boundary. It is where someone decides whether a thought is ready to become work, needs refinement, or is worth retaining for later.
Clarify when the answer converges
Use a focused question to define the intended outcome or a constraint.
Brainstorm when the possibilities diverge
Generate plausible directions, then return the useful context to Inbox.
