Ask in Chat
Say what to keep working on. In OmniLore mode, not Quick.
OmniLore Quest™
Keep working after you close chat.
Humans communicate with each other over email. Why shouldn’t you communicate with your OmniLore agent the same way?
That is the intent — and it has to be true. Your personal OmniLore agent stays on the work when you leave. When it needs you, it writes to your personal inbox or your OmniLore address. You reply in that thread, in plain language, the way you already write email.
How it feels in real life
You do not leave a robot a standing order. You keep a correspondence. Your OmniLore agent writes like someone still on the work. You write back as you would to a colleague.
Pick an inbox
Personal address, OmniLore mailbox, or 1 / 2 if both are on file.
Close the laptop
The work does not vanish because the tab did.
Talk over email
Same thread, same inbox, same kind of reply you would send a person.
Use cases, as they actually sound
A few ordinary threads. Write back the way you already write email.
Use case 1
Weekly notes, after you close the laptop
Maya starts in Chat. Later her agent needs one call, so it writes to her personal inbox.
In OmniLore Chat
Maya
Keep working on my weekly notes after I close this. Email me if you get stuck.
Maya’s OmniLore agent
I’ll keep working on this. Want me to email you if I get stuck — your personal inbox or your OmniLore address?
Maya
Personal. And yes, start.
Maya’s OmniLore agent
I’ll keep working on this. I’ll email you if I get stuck.
Later, in email
Hi Maya — I kept going on the weekly notes. I have a decent draft from what we already talked about.
One thing I don’t want to guess: the short version for the team, or the longer one with the open questions at the bottom?
Reply in this thread and I’ll keep going.

Short version. Leave the open questions out of this one — I’ll cover those live on Monday.
Got it. I’ll finish the short version and write you if anything else comes up.
Use case 2
“Use my OmniLore address — that’s what I check on the phone.”
Jordan has both inboxes on file. They pick the OmniLore mailbox because they are about to travel.
In OmniLore Chat
Jordan
Keep going on the vendor comparison. I’ll be in airports the next two days.
Jordan’s OmniLore agent
I can keep working on that.
If I get stuck, I can email you. You have two on file:
1. Your personal inbox
2. Your OmniLore mailbox
Which one?
Jordan
2 — use my OmniLore mailbox. That’s what I actually open on the plane.
The next afternoon, in OmniLore Mail
Hi Jordan — I lined up the three vendors from the notes we already had. I’m not going to invent a winner.
Do you still want this scored on price, or did last week’s conversation mean “support hours matter more”?
Leave this line so I can match your reply: OLQ-7c91aa04b2e8
Support hours first. Price second. Don’t drop anyone yet — just rank them that way.
Use case 3
Away from Chat, still in the conversation
Sam is out of the office. They never reopen Chat. They just answer the email.
Before they leave
Sam
Keep working on the outline for Thursday’s briefing. Personal inbox if you need me — I won’t be in Chat.
Sam’s OmniLore agent
I’ll keep working on the outline. I’ll email your personal inbox if I get stuck.
From a phone, in email
Hi Sam — I have two honest openings and I don’t want to pick for you.
A. Start with what changed this week.
B. Start with the decision you still need from the group.
Which one?
Leave this line so I can match your reply: OLQ-c0ffee12ab34
B. Lead with the decision. People skim. Put the changes in a short list after that.
That helps. I’ll rebuild the opening around the decision and keep the changes short. I’ll write you if anything else is unclear.
Use case 4
“Pause this. I’ll be heads-down until Thursday.”
Priya does not want more mail while she is in meetings. She can say so in the same thread.
The ask, in email
Hi Priya — I stopped before guessing the audience. Is this for the working group, or for the board packet?
Leave this line so I can match your reply: OLQ-11aa22bb33cc
Priya writes back
Pause this for now. I’ll be heads-down until Thursday. Pick it up then — board packet, not the working group.
Paused. I saved where we left off, including “board packet.” Email me or say so in Chat when you want me to pick it up.
Use case 5
This piece is in good shape. Start the next one.
Alex finishes one stretch of work over email, then asks the agent to begin the follow-up — same inbox, same thread of trust.
In email, after a few days
Hi Alex — I took the briefing as far as the notes support. I don’t want to pad it.
Want me to stop here, or start the follow-up on the vendor list we talked about?
Leave this line so I can match your reply: OLQ-99deaa01ff22
Alex’s reply
This one’s in good shape. Start the vendor follow-up. Same inbox. If you get stuck, ask — don’t guess a ranking.
I’ll start the vendor follow-up from here and keep writing you on this inbox. I won’t rank anyone until you say so.

What Quest is, and is not
- Quest is for invited members, in OmniLore mode. Quick chat cannot do this.
- Mail is sent from your OmniLore address. You choose whether it goes to your registered personal inbox or your OmniLore mailbox.
- Reply in that thread to talk — a real email conversation, not a status blast. If you want the work paused or stopped, say so in plain language in the same email.
- Quest keeps work going and asks when it is stuck. It is not a finished research pack, an inbox digest, or an unattended pull request.
- It will not pop back open in Chat when it checks in. Email is the conversation while you are away.
- Access is invitation-only. Capabilities vary by account.

Existing members can start in OmniLore Chat, then keep the conversation in the inbox they pick. Teams evaluating a private beta can request a walkthrough.
