Start Your First FridayLocalAI Conversation

A focused first message helps FridayLocalAI understand the work and return a useful answer.

Steps

1. Select New conversation.
2. Choose the appropriate agent and local model when those controls are available.
3. State the goal, important constraints, relevant context, and preferred output format.
4. Send the message and wait for the response status to complete.
5. Review any source indicators, warnings, or limitations before relying on the answer.
6. Rename the conversation or move it into a project when it becomes ongoing work.

What success looks like

The response addresses the requested goal, reflects the stated constraints, and remains available in conversation history.

Good practice

FridayLocalAI responses are advisory. Runtime policy, stored evidence, and human authority remain controlling.
