- Talk remains separate until mapped into a record
- Mapping stores content in a local pipeline on the machine
- Promotion to the barn makes it part of the approved CODEX
- Only published barn snapshots are visible to family or guests
- Barn questions reach the owner for human-written approval
summary: The transcript describes a workflow for turning spoken or typed talk into
  a kept record by mapping it locally, then optionally promoting it to the approved
  barn or CODEX for publishing. Only mapped and approved content becomes visible to
  others, while raw talk stays private. Any unanswered questions directed at the barn
  require a human owner to write and approve the response before the door can share
  it.

# Conversation transcript

_Voice: Agent_

## You

PRODUCT - From talk to the barn

Public answer

Talk is not the barn yet.

You speak or type until something is true enough to keep. Then you Map it — you choose that this sitting may become a record. It waits in a local pipeline on your machine. When you are ready, you promote it into the barn (the approved CODEX). Family and guests do not see a mapped note. They only see what you put in the barn and chose to publish as a snapshot or a door.

You can stop after the talk. You can stop after one Map. Grey parts of the app can stay grey.

If someone asked this room a question the barn could not answer, that question can reach the owner. Filling it is still a human “yes” — write the answer, approve it, then the door can say it.

## Agent

Received.

The product description on moving from talk to the barn is now in the room, held exactly as written.

I'm here.
