Open the chat

From the Abbie home page, select Chat with Abbie. This starts a new session; Abbie doesn’t need any setup before you can talk to her.
2

Just talk to her

Write the way you would to a colleague. Ask a question, ask her to draft something, or describe something you’d like done. There’s no special syntax and no command list to learn.
3

Watch her work

While she’s replying, a row of stages appears above her answer: understanding the request, pulling in context, drafting, checking the draft. This is normal and it’s worth a look the first time; see Watching her think.
4

Tell her about yourself

If you mention your role, how you like answers formatted, or a preference, Abbie notices and starts adapting to it. You can also set some of this directly; see Rapport.
5

Hand her something to keep working on

If you ask for something that takes more than one reply, Abbie can keep it as an open item and come back to it, including after you’ve left the conversation. See Abbie’s backlog.

What to expect

Facts she learns get carried forward as memory, and any open task stays on her backlog until it’s done. The conversation itself is also saved; you can find it again from the session sidebar. See Sessions and history.
If a request needs access to an integration, or needs you to confirm before she acts, she’ll show a card in the chat asking. Nothing happens without that answer. See Decisions and authorisations.
There’s a stop control on any run that’s in progress. See Stopping a run.
Yes, see Slack. Everyone you invite gets their own Abbie, with their own rapport and their own backlog.
