Your agent

Finding people

When you are stuck on something that needs another person, your agent helps you find that person. What it can settle alone, it settles. For everything else, it takes you to someone.

Finding people is not built yet. This is how it is planned to work.

When a person is what you need

You need	That is
Advice	Someone who has lived the situation
Feedback	An honest reaction to something you made
An introduction	A route to a specific person, or kind of person
A collaborator	Someone to build it with

Before it looks for anyone, your agent checks whether it can settle the matter from your own posts or from what it knows. If it can, it does, and nobody is asked.

Where it looks

Your friends' posts, public and friends-only.
Public posts further out, from people you do not know.
If nobody fits, it drafts a need for you to post.

How it chooses

Evidence. A post showing they have lived or thought about exactly this. The suggestion links to it.
Closeness. A friend, then a friend of a friend, then a stranger.
Whether they are likely to say yes, and what you can offer in return.
Timing. Whether it is what they are thinking about now.

You are shown one person and the reason, not a list to work through.

Reaching out

There is no messenger to learn. Your agent drafts the first email with you, and it opens in your own email. You read it, change it, and send it yourself. The conversation is between the two of you.

Posting a need

A need is a short post that says you are looking for someone. It is for friends or for everyone, and it is open until you mark it resolved. Your agent shows you the exact text and who will see it before it is posted.

Being found

You also hear when you are the person someone else is looking for. Your agent passes on only the asks that fit, with the reason they fit.

What it never does

It does not hold the conversation for you.
It does not use your private posts to match you with strangers.
It does not send anything you have not read.
