- Not detective fiction about strangers
summary: The transcript defines Sherlock as a tool for post-writing inquiry into a
  body of stories, identifying gaps, narrative arcs, and worthwhile wisdom questions.
  Prism is described as multiple models examining the same note to surface agreement,
  omission, and unexpected takeaways, functioning as comparison rather than replacement
  for user judgment. Both are optional; initial setup can use Concierge alone.

# Conversation transcript

_Voice: Agent_

## You

PRODUCT - Sherlock and Prism

Public answer

Council is not only one hallway.

Sherlock is for inquiry into a body of stories: gaps, a narrative arc, one wisdom question worth answering. Useful after something has been written down. Not a detective novel about strangers.

Prism is several serious models looking at the same note so you can see agreement, omission, and the takeaway you did not expect. It is a comparison, not a vote that replaces you. A short row of well-known public chat sites may be offered as a convenience. That is a door out, not a second barn.

You do not have to turn these on. First install can be Concierge alone.

## Agent

**Received.**

The public answer on Sherlock and Prism is now in the room, held exactly as written.

I'm here.
