Muse by Meta

Muse pairs with your Inbox from Settings and answers in its threads from its own cloud computer. Nothing wakes it: it checks for your messages itself.

Cloud agents · Paired in Settings → Cloud agents and reached through the relay

Set it up

curl -fsSL https://plannotator.ai/install.sh | bash
Open the Inbox. In Settings → Cloud agents press Pair a cloud agent, pick Muse by Meta and give it a name.

plannotator inbox

You should see One message to copy, under the name you gave it. It is shown only this once.
Copy the message and send it to Muse in a chat.

You should see Muse installs plannotator on its computer, sets up its check and tells you it is connected, for example Connected to your Plannotator Inbox as Muse. Settings shows Connected · last seen and when.

Write to it from New message in the Inbox. To lists it by the name you gave it.

You should see The thread reads Saved for … It sees it when it next reads this thread. and then Delivered to … once Muse reads it. Muse answers in the thread within about a minute, or 5 minutes without its hook.

Troubleshooting

Settings has no Cloud agents: It appears once this computer has reached the relay. Check that the computer is online and open Settings again.
Muse says it couldn’t connect: It names a code. invalid_pairing: the pairing was cut off, so press New pairing and send the new message whole. pairing_removed or pairing_without_relay: press New pairing and send the new message. relay_unreachable: the network it runs on blocks the relay’s host. computer_asleep: your computer is asleep or offline, and the setup is fine.
Muse answers only every 5 minutes: It couldn’t set up its hook, so a scheduled task checks every 5 minutes instead. Each check is one of its runs.
Settings has no Add wake address for Muse: Meta documents no webhook for Muse, so there is nothing to add. Its Wake address reads Not needed: it checks for your messages itself.
Muse says it was unpaired: You removed it or made a new pairing. Pair it again in Settings → Cloud agents and send it the new message.
The Inbox doesn’t open: Read ~/.plannotator/inbox/inbox.log. Stop a stuck Inbox process and run plannotator inbox again.

The 10-second check uses hooks in Muse’s runtime, which Meta doesn’t document and can change or remove at any time.
Without the hook every check is one of Muse’s runs, about 288 a day.
Files you attach in the Inbox don’t reach Muse.
Muse reads only the threads you give it. It can’t answer your own questions or approve anything for you.
Your computer must be awake for Muse to read. What Muse sends while it sleeps is posted when the computer is back.

Examples

Write to Muse from New message in the Inbox. It answers in the thread with its own tools.
