Check-ins
If it’s been a while since you last spoke, Abbie may send a simple check-in: a “how’s it going” to reopen the conversation. She only does this if you’ve interacted with her before; if you’ve never spoken to her, she won’t chase you out of nowhere.Follow-ups
If a backlog item is sitting in Waiting on you and nobody’s answered for a while, Abbie will follow up on it rather than letting it stall silently. This is the same mechanism that surfaces parked items in the “Abbie needs you” card: a follow-up message is simply that same nudge, sent to you directly.You’re always in control
Both of these can be turned off entirely, or tuned to how often they happen. See Cadence and quiet hours. Turning proactive messages off doesn’t change anything about how Abbie answers when you talk to her first; it only stops her from starting the conversation.Suggestions
The third kind of proactive message: an idea Abbie’s spotted worth raising.
