You ask for work in WhatsApp. The Perisclaw dashboard is the clear record of
what your assistant is doing, what it remembers, and what it is allowed to do.
This tour walks the screens in the order you will meet them.

## Sign in and connect WhatsApp

Your dashboard is a private workspace. The first visit walks you through
linking the WhatsApp number you already use. Choose **Continue with Google**,
add your number, and link it through WhatsApp’s normal Linked Devices flow.

_Setup takes about two minutes; the Connecting guide covers each step._

Follow the [Connecting guide](/setup-your-assistant) for the full walkthrough.

## WhatsApp is your everyday workspace

Perisclaw lives in the self-chat under your own name. Ask naturally; there is
no command language to learn. Send a voice note when typing is inconvenient,
and use `/claw` when you want help inside another chat.

_Briefings, answers, and drafts all arrive in the chat you already use._

[Perisclaw basics](/use-cases) teaches both ways to ask and what happens next.

## Tasks

Open **Tasks** for the full list behind a briefing: your commitments, work you
have delegated, and things you are waiting on. Swipe view clears one item at a
time; List view shows the wider schedule. You can create a task here too, by
typing or recording it.

_Swipe view keeps one decision in front of you at a time._

See [Tasks & commitments](/track-commitments-and-tasks) for how tasks are
detected, delivered, and closed.

## Wiki

**Wiki** holds everything you have saved, organized into folders, each entry
titled, with related notes linked together. React 📎 to any WhatsApp message to
add to it. See [Personal wiki](/personal-wiki).

## Automations

**Automations** shows standing behavior: recurring briefs, message rules, and
multi-step follow-ups. The overview surfaces failures and live runs first, and
every longer workflow has an inspectable timeline showing its current step and
what it is waiting for.

_Check why a run is waiting before intervening._

See [Automations](/automations) for the full page walkthrough.

## Missions

**Missions** tracks the goals Perisclaw owns end-to-end. Coordinate
the meeting, chase the confirmation. Each card shows what it is taking care of,
whether it is working or needs you, and how much of the plan is finished.
Finished Missions keep their own details pages. See [Missions](/missions).

## Skills

**Skills** is the assistant’s playbook: a searchable list of the procedures it
follows, split into your skills and built-in ones. Read what Perisclaw has been
taught, edit a procedure for a consistent new behavior, and review the change
history when an answer surprises you. See [Skills](/custom-skills).

## Permissions

**Permissions** is the control center: the overall mode that decides how
forward your assistant may be, the chats it is currently participating in, and
the chats it must never read. See
[Permissions & access](/permissions-and-access).

## Settings

**Settings** holds billing, push notifications, invites, and account controls,
including disconnecting your phone or deleting the account. See
[Account & settings](/account-and-settings).
