Ask about your project...

Track order
Get the food
Apple Pay
Courier on the map
ETA countdown
Order status updates
Delivered confirmation
Courier cannot find the address
Marked delivered but never arrived
Live map drains the battery
No way to contact the driver
Rate the meal
What Happens
The agent reads the board before it answers, so it can reason about what is already there. Ask what could go wrong, what is missing, or what you would need to know before building a step, and it answers in plain text without touching the map.
That makes it a cheap way to think out loud. Push back, add your own ideas, or ask it to go deeper on one item. Nothing is written to the board until you say so, and when you do it turns the list into cards of the type you asked for under the step you were discussing.
The conversation is kept, so “add the second and fourth ones” works too.
Try Saying
- “What questions should we answer before building Pay?”
- “Where are the gaps in this map?”
- “What pain points are we missing in "Pick dishes"?”
