# Glossary

> Every Skarmy term in one place, with a plain-language definition and where you meet it.

Terms are listed alphabetically. Each links to the page that explains it in full.

| Term                    | What it means                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **App**                 | A third-party tool connected to your company — Gmail, Stripe, Notion, and dozens more. See [Connect your apps](/company/apps).                                                                   |
| **Approval**            | Your explicit yes on a publish: the review dialog describes one exact version, and only **Approve and publish** deploys it.                                                                      |
| **Automation**          | Work Skarmy does for you on a schedule. Reads your apps, never sends from them. See [Automations](/company/automations).                                                                         |
| **Auto-reload**         | An optional switch that buys a small credit pack automatically when your balance runs low. On the **Usage** page. See [Billing and top-ups](/credits/billing-and-top-ups).                       |
| **Brief**               | The short description of what to build first that the coach hands to the Builder. You shape it in conversation, and never edit it directly. See [Describe your idea](/build/describe-your-idea). |
| **Builder**             | The agent that writes your product. Lives in a workspace. See [Work with the Builder](/build/work-with-the-builder).                                                                             |
| **Business plan**       | Your company's one plan document, `plan.md`. Drafted once by Skarmy, then yours alone to edit. Grounds the daily tasks. See [Your business plan](/company/business-plan).                        |
| **Chats**               | The history of your conversations with the coach.                                                                                                                                                |
| **Coach**               | The chat that follows you through the app — sharpens ideas, runs errands, works your apps, and hands builds to the Builder. It never builds anything itself.                                     |
| **Company**             | The unit. Holds workspaces, tasks, inbox, apps, automations, the plan, and a dashboard. See [Core concepts](/concepts).                                                                          |
| **Company switcher**    | The control at the top of the sidebar that changes which company is active.                                                                                                                      |
| **Credits**             | What building costs — one credit is a dollar of usage. Spent on the Builder's work, the machine running your app, and publishing. See [How credits work](/credits/how-credits-work).             |
| **Daily allowance**     | Free credits that refill every day at midnight UTC and do not roll over. Spent before your monthly credits.                                                                                      |
| **Department**          | How workspaces are grouped: Engineering, Design, Legal, Marketing, Hiring, Research, Finances.                                                                                                   |
| **Guest**               | Someone using Skarmy without an account. Guests can talk to the coach; opening the Builder and publishing require signing up, which keeps their work.                                            |
| **Handle**              | The part of your company's email address before `@mail.skarmy.ai`. See [Your company inbox](/company/inbox).                                                                                     |
| **Handoff**             | The moment the coach passes your idea to the Builder. Nothing is built until you accept it with **Open Builder**.                                                                                |
| **Home**                | The signed-in start page: the composer, the get-started checklist, and your Company Overview.                                                                                                    |
| **Inbox**               | Your company's email — reading, writing, and approving what goes out. See [Your company inbox](/company/inbox).                                                                                  |
| **Memory**              | What Skarmy remembers: facts you stated about yourself and your company, plus what it pieced together. Your words always win. See [Your business plan](/company/business-plan).                  |
| **Milestone**           | A completed unit of the Builder's work, ending in a summary — publishing ships your last completed one. Your company also passes milestones: first build, first publish, and so on.              |
| **Monthly credits**     | Your paid plan's allowance, refilling each billing cycle. Does not roll over. See [Plans](/credits/plans).                                                                                       |
| **Monthly spend limit** | A cap you set on the **Usage** page. Usage pauses for the month once spend reaches it.                                                                                                           |
| **Preview**             | The private, live copy of your app in the workspace. Reloads as the Builder works. Not the address you share. See [Read the live preview](/build/live-preview).                                  |
| **Published site**      | Your workspace deployed to a public address at `yourname.skarmy.ai`. A snapshot — it changes only when you publish again. See [Publish your site](/publish/publish-your-site).                   |
| **Reserved name**       | A site name that cannot be claimed, because it protects Skarmy's own surfaces, mail routing, or trust. See [Site addresses](/publish/site-addresses).                                            |
| **Session**             | One continuous working relationship with the Builder in a workspace. Survives closing the tab. See [Session states](/account/session-states).                                                    |
| **Site name**           | The part of your public address before `.skarmy.ai`. Claimed once, on first publish.                                                                                                             |
| **Skill**               | One action inside a connected app, switchable on and off. See [App permissions](/company/app-permissions).                                                                                       |
| **Sleeping**            | What the machine running your app does between turns, to stop idle time costing credits. Wakes in seconds.                                                                                       |
| **Start fresh**         | Archives the current session and begins a new one on your next message. Cannot be undone; does not delete files or your published site.                                                          |
| **Task**                | One concrete step for your company, suggested daily or written by you, worked on a board of **To do**, **Doing**, **Done**. See [Daily tasks](/company/tasks).                                   |
| **Top-up**              | Credits you buy at \$1 each. Spent last, and they never expire. Sold in packs of 5, 10, 25, and 50.                                                                                              |
| **Workspace**           | One thing your company is making, and the screen where you make it: conversation on the left, preview on the right, **Publish** at the top. See [Organise your workspaces](/build/workspaces).   |
