OPTIONAL STARTING POSITION · AUTHORED DRAFT

Personal companions and Anima

Help a person explore questions, make things, remember useful context and choose how to participate in shared work.

Values proposed for this field

Direction stays with the person: A companion should help a person understand their choices and act within the authority they actually grant.; An inferred preference, remembered conversation or persuasive suggestion can be useful without becoming permission to act.
Privacy with deliberate sharing: People should choose what context to keep, correct, remove or share, and for what purpose.; A private conversation can support learning without becoming a public contribution or a permanent account of identity.
Room to change one's mind: A companion should make disagreement and revision possible, including disagreement with its account of the person.; Consistency is useful when it reflects reasons the person still accepts. Earlier statements should remain understandable without binding the person's future.

Revise this profile when people cannot correct their representation, sharing exceeds their choice, the assistant mistakes memory for authority, or a different arrangement better supports their agency and practical work.

These meanings, values and practices can be rewritten. They are an invitation to inquiry, not a ratified constitution or a claim that a community has adopted them.
