One engine. Wired into your tools.

The app is a small console: Home, Chat, Code, Connections, Schedule, Insights, Memory, and Activity. Each surface is the same engine with a different tool profile — Chat gets web search with the filesystem locked down; Code gets the full toolset on one folder. There's no orchestration layer; it's one agent at a time.

Connections links Vanta to the tools you already use — Gmail, GitHub, Cloudflare, Discord — over OAuth, with a plain-language, least-privilege summary of every scope. Schedule turns a sentence into a recurring routine that can run unattended, with an explicit per-routine write-consent posture.

• OAuth connectors with least-privilege scopes you can read in plain English.
• Tokens live in your OS keychain — never in the app, never in the clear.
• Routines run on a schedule; autonomous writes are opt-in, per routine.
• Memory and self-authored Skills carry context across runs.

The app spawns the same Vanta engine in a headless host mode and renders its events in a native UI instead of an ANSI REPL — diff approval, live model switch, vision, and compaction are all the engine's. Local-first by construction: your data and keys stay on your machine, and every connector call is audit-logged.
