Connect an assistant
Open Settings → AI → Models & Accounts and pick one of the options below. Until you connect one, the AI panel shows Connect an AI assistant first with a Set up AI button that takes you there.- Assistants
- Subscriptions
- Custom API
Use a CLI agent that is installed and signed in on this Mac: Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Kimi CLI, CodeBuddy, Qwen Code, GitHub Copilot or Google Antigravity.
- Click Use to select an agent and Test to check that it works.
- If a newly installed agent is missing, click Detect Again.
- If it isn’t signed in, click Sign In in Terminal and follow the agent’s own login.
Review and undo changes
Proposed changes appear as Suggested timeboxes or Suggested changes cards. Choose Add All to Calendar, Confirm Changes, Adjust One by One or Discard. Larger plans appear as Review plan, where you can Accept all, apply only the items you select, or Plan again. After changes are applied, the chat’s Operation History bar offers Undo All, Keep All and Review, and each item can be undone on its own. The undo rules are described under “Undo AI calendar changes” in Connect calendars.Approving tool actions
With an assistant or a custom API, you decide how the assistant’s tool actions are approved. Switch modes from the permission menu in the composer, or set the default in Settings → AI → Chat & Permissions → Assistant Permissions (Advanced). A change applies from your next message.
When the assistant asks, choose Allow Once, Always Allow, Deny or Always Deny.
Chat in a project folder
In the chat list, choose Add project, then Link folder. Chats in that project run the CLI agent in the linked folder.- The folder link stays on this device and is never uploaded. Other devices show No folder on this device until you link it there.
- Remove project keeps the chats and moves them to No project.
Online agents
An online agent is an assistant that lives in the cloud: it replies even when Voido is closed, and the chat syncs to all your devices. You need to be signed in to your Voido account with a membership that includes AI credits. Online agents work in the desktop app and on the web.- In the chat list, click Online above Projects, then click + at the top right.
- Give it a name (up to 40 characters), pick a cat and a color, and click Create.
- Select it in the list to chat with it on the right. While it works, the list and the chat show Thinking….
- Each account can have up to 10 online agents. An online agent answers one message at a time with up to 4 more waiting; when the queue is full, wait a few seconds and send again.
- It can only read your synced calendar, tasks, projects and notes. When it wants to change your schedule or due dates, it sends a suggestion card for you to confirm first.
- Right-click an agent in the list to edit its name and avatar, or to delete it. A deleted agent stops replying and its chat stays as read-only history.
- Press Esc or the back button at the top left to return to the chat list.
Send while it replies
While the assistant is replying:- Press Enter to queue your message; it’s sent after the current reply.
- Press Shift+Enter to Steer the reply in progress. Steering works with a custom API or ChatGPT sign-in only, and steering messages can’t carry attachments.
- Press Alt+Enter for a new line.
Attachments, memory and voice
- Images can be PNG, JPEG, WebP or GIF, up to 5 MB each. Some assistants don’t accept images.
- Long-term memory holds up to 20 entries. Memories the AI suggests are saved only after you confirm them.
- Voice input uses Apple’s on-device speech recognition, so audio never leaves your Mac.
