Pillar · Prometheus

OAra Cognition

The slow thinking.

Planning, and checking the work against the goal before delivering it.

Designing. There’s nothing to install yet.

What it’s for

Three things, before an answer goes out

Plans
Works out how to get from what you asked to what you want, before the agent acts.
Assembles context
Brings together what the task needs to be thought about well.
Checks against the goal
Holds the answer up to what you asked for before it’s delivered.

Where it fits

One of three pillars for Prometheus

Instinct
Fast decisions. Which model, which tool, when to stop.
Cognition
Planning, and checking the work against the goal before delivering it.
Blackboard
Coordination across several machines.

Instinct lives with the body, on every node, always local. Cognition thinks with whatever brain Instinct wakes. All three are being designed to plug into Prometheus, the agent daemon that runs on hardware you own.

Voice is separate: OAra Voice, two-way voice conversation with your agent, is an Extension, coming soon.
