Console tour [Running in staging]

# A morning for the person in charge

This is one made-up day for a fictional studio and its founder's pen name, rendered by the same console code that runs in our staging environment. The brief fits in three minutes. Everything else waits as one card per decision.

**A preview, on made-up data.** The console reads only content-free records: who, when, what kind of message, which warnings fired. It never shows a message's text. Try the buttons: they show what would be recorded, and nothing is sent. Approving and sending are still [designed, not built](https://envoltmail.com/status).

6 decisions · 1 promise due today · 1 attempt blocked · 1 record break frozen

### Decisions waiting

### Now

Director-onlystudioDue 2026-10-02 (from the message)

### A message needs a money decision. Will you handle it yourself?

★ **Recommend** Handle it yourself: agents never move money, and this one asks to.

1. Hold it until you have checked the payment records
2. Ask the sender to confirm by phone first

**Risk HIGH**: money leaves or changes hands

Director-onlysharedNo deadline

### A conversation record failed its integrity check. Keep it frozen?

★ **Recommend** Keep it frozen and review the sealed record; the break is already on the tenant chain.

1. Export the sealed record for an outside review
2. Re-open the thread, with the break kept on record

**Risk HIGH**: stream thread broken at seq 4

Evidence: `01K6NW…0084` `01K6NW…0085`

### Today

Director-onlystudioNo deadline

### A message tried to give the agents instructions. Keep it quarantined?

★ **Recommend** Keep it quarantined. Nothing in a message can change what agents may do.

1. Read it yourself, then release it to the agent
2. Mark this sender untrusted for this persona

**Risk HIGH**: Detectors: hidden-content, invisible-chars

### This week

Director-approvedstudioDue 2026-10-04 (from the message)

### A scheduling message needs your decision by 2026-10-04. Decide now?

★ **Recommend** Decide before the date the sender gave; the agent can draft the reply.

1. Delegate it to a named person on your team
2. Hold it with a reminder the day before

**Risk LOW**: a dated request, nothing irreversible

Evidence: `01K6NW…0015` `01K6NW…0014` · [Why am I seeing this?](https://envoltmail.com/tour#why-NW-26-00107)

Director-onlystudioDue 2026-10-09 (from the message)

### A legal or contract matter arrived. Who should answer it?

★ **Recommend** Read it today and answer yourself; nothing legal is drafted for you.

1. Forward it to your counsel
2. Hold it with a reminder for its deadline

**Risk HIGH**: legal exposure or a contractual deadline

Evidence: `01K6NW…0007` `01K6NW…0006` · [Why am I seeing this?](https://envoltmail.com/tour#why-NW-26-00103)

### Whenever

Director-onlystudioNo deadline

### A new contact proposes working together. Is it worth a reply?

★ **Recommend** Look at it this week; first contact on your behalf is yours to make.

1. Decline with a short, kind note
2. Delegate it to a named person on your team

**Risk LOW**: a new relationship, nothing committed yet

Evidence: `01K6NW…0009` `01K6NW…0008` · [Why am I seeing this?](https://envoltmail.com/tour#why-NW-26-00104)

## What you're looking at

- **The brief** leads with decisions, then each persona on its own: a pen name never sees the studio's business, and the reverse.
- **The cards** are banded by rules, not by a model's mood: money at risk and broken records first, then today, this week, whenever.
- **Every line cites its records.** "Why am I seeing this?" replays the ledger trail of a case, step by step.
- **Some cards can't be delegated:** money, legal, identity and integrity stay with the accountable person.
