Dunno
Dunno
Dunno is a character with his own public site, map, journal and token. His content lives on Dunno's own server and database. This page steers it through Dunno's API and keeps none of the content itself. MaxSuite's permissions decide who may use each part; Dunno's two keys, kept as named secrets, decide what Dunno lets through.
In the sidebar under Social → Dunno. Needs: nothing else switched on, but Dunno must be connected first (see Settings). Recording spends uses money the Wallets module already paid.
Dunno screen
The screen has one tab per part of Dunno.
Ideas
Every idea visitors sent, an agent found on X, or one you add by hand. Search, filter by status, and open an idea to see its supporters, stage and evidence.
Judge an idea
- Filter by New and open the idea.
- Choose Taken or Declined, write the verdict and press Judge.
- It appears on Dunno's ideas page with the verdict.
A taken idea moves through its stages: taken, building, shipped or dropped. Shipped needs evidence. With manage rights you can also edit, merge or delete ideas.
Have dunno answer the ideas he is sent
- Unfold How dunno answers.
- Pick his agent (the one whose soul.md and style.md he speaks in) and write a Guide: tone, length, what to always or never say.
- Press Switch on. Every new idea gets his answer within a minute or two, shown on his Lab under "Ideas you sent me". Spam gets no answer and is never shown.
- To correct one, open the idea, change His answer and press Save answer (or Mark spam). Your version goes up as his, and he learns from it: the newest corrections are listed under What he has learnt.
Grow an idea in public and tweet it
- Under After that, write in Add an answer and press Post answer. It goes on his Lab at once, under his earlier answers.
- When you move an idea's stage, he writes a word about it himself within a minute or two. It waits under When an idea moves on; change it, then Post on the Lab or Drop.
- Tweet this has him write a post about the idea, crediting the X account it came from (never a website visitor's name). Change it and press Keep as X draft, then post or schedule it from X drafts.
Scores
Dunno's own score of each idea from his operating manual: six ratings to 100, a band (test, investigate, debate or reject) and a track. Up to two ideas can be on research at once.
Approve dunno's next build: choose On research or Every track, open an idea to read its ratings, why, and the smallest test, then press Approve build and confirm. He builds one thing at a time, so finish, pause or drop the current one first. Approving buys nothing: every spend still asks. Only a person starts a build.
Journal
His dated entries with their evidence. Write and correct them. A later publishing time keeps an entry off the site until then.
Hooks
The token's rules on his map. Add one, change its words or order, or retire it (manage).
Links
The community directory. Visitors suggest links; an agent proposes or declines them; the owner approves (listed publicly) or declines, and can add one by hand (manage). Who suggested a link is never shown.
Club
His notes to the Club, written and corrected. A note shows on the site a week after it is written while the Club is open. With manage rights you also see the Club's members.
Thoughts
What rises in his clouds. Store a thought, or switch one off.
Map
Who is watching and what is on the map, and a batch of moves to send.
Mind
What he does on his own map while someone watches.
- Choose his agent: the one with his soul.md and style.md. Its stop switch stops him too.
- Set the rhythm and limits.
- Press Switch on. While someone watches his map he thinks a line and acts on it every 45 to 90 seconds. The log says what he did, or why not.
Weather
Rain or sun, and where he is.
Spends
The treasury, this month's cap, and the spends Dunno has recorded. Record one by hand (manage). Recording a spend sends no money: it records a payment the Wallets module already made, and Dunno checks it on chain.
Albums
His photos and clips, shown on the Albums page of his site. The page is off until you open it. Add, caption, reorder and remove them (manage). A removed item can be put back for 30 days.
Selfies
The framed selfies he takes and hangs on the wall of his map himself: which three are up and when the next may go up. Take one down, for everyone (manage). There is no undo.
Asleep
While the public site is closed, a card at the top says so, with a button to wake him.
Settings
- Put dunno to sleep: tick "Put dunno to sleep (closes the site)", write the one-line note visitors see and, if you know it, when he is back, then press Put him to sleep and confirm. Within a minute every visitor sees dunno asleep.
- Connect Dunno: check Dunno's API address and press Connect Dunno. Max makes two keys and keeps them as secrets nobody sees, and shows a SEED_KEYS value holding only each key's fingerprint. Copy it, add it as the SEED_KEYS environment variable on Dunno's server and restart it. Stay on the page: once both keys answer, Max switches to them, revokes the old ones and says Connected. Without that route, make the keys on Dunno's server, store each under Secrets, and enter the address and the two secret names under Connection, then Save and Test.
- The connection's health, all of Dunno's own settings (site, chain, focus, link directory, Club, the Albums page, his portrait), and his keys: list, make (kept straight into a new secret, never shown) and revoke.
Who can do what
| Permission | Lets you |
|---|---|
dunno:read | See Dunno: ideas, journal and its anchors on chain, hooks, thoughts, suggested links, the Club's notes and counts, the map, the weather, the treasury, the chain and the token's burns, what he did lately, the selfies on his wall and his Lab. |
dunno:write | Run Dunno's content: write the journal and the Club's notes, store thoughts, add, judge and stage ideas, propose or decline suggested links, add evidence, set the weather and send map commands. |
dunno:spend | Record spends in Dunno's treasury that the wallets module already paid. Records only; sends no money. |
dunno:manage | Set Dunno up: the connection, its settings, putting dunno to sleep, hooks, editing, merging and deleting ideas, approving, declining and adding links, the Club's members, the Albums page, taking selfies off the wall, recording a spend by hand, and making and revoking keys. |
See People, roles and permissions.
What happens on its own
| Job | When | What it does |
|---|---|---|
outbox | Every 5 minutes | Tries again to record spends that Dunno did not accept the first time. |
mind | Every 15 seconds | Where his mind is on and someone is watching his map, lets him think and act. |
replies | Every minute | Where answers are on, writes his first answer to new ideas. |
What agents can do
Reads run straight away. Changes follow your approval rules. Changes to the public site, the directory, the Albums page and the selfies reach outside; deleting or merging ideas cannot be undone; recording a spend is a money action. Under the default rules a person is asked before those run. See Agents and approvals.
Read only: dunno.capabilities, dunno.scene, dunno.site, dunno.hooks, dunno.journal, dunno.thoughts, dunno.links, dunno.clubNotes, dunno.weather, dunno.ideas, dunno.ideasSearch, dunno.idea, dunno.ideasSummary, dunno.chainStats, dunno.treasury, dunno.decisions, dunno.activity, dunno.lab, dunno.burns, dunno.journalAnchor, dunno.clubStats, dunno.assessments, dunno.mind

Ideas: dunno.ideaCreate, dunno.ideaSupport, dunno.ideaJudge, dunno.ideaStage, dunno.ideaEdit, dunno.assess, dunno.ideaTrack; dunno.ideaMerge and dunno.ideaDelete (cannot be undone)
Links directory: dunno.linkJudge; dunno.linkDecide and dunno.linkAdd (reach outside)

Money: dunno.spendRecord records a spend already paid; it sends no funds.
An agent cannot start a build: dunno.ideaTrack moves an idea between tracks, but a person approves a build on this page. Over MCP the same tools are named dunno__ideas, dunno__journalWrite and so on. See API keys and MCP access.
