Get started with Socra Cortex

Socra Cortex gives your account one graph for durable knowledge and work. A module records what should be. An issue records work that moves the system toward that specification. Flash assembles the knowledge that an agent needs for the task.

Prepare the CLI

Sign in and install current Socra CLI packages:

socra account login
socra update

Start from the work

Cortex uses a pull-based flow. Begin with the task you need to complete. Then look for relevant account knowledge:

socra cortex map
socra cortex module search --query "your topic"

If a relevant module exists, flash it before you act:

socra cortex flash your-module

A new account starts with an empty graph. Continue the task when no module exists. Do not create sample modules or invent account knowledge.

Keep durable knowledge with permission

When a conversation reveals knowledge that will improve future decisions, propose the exact module change to its owner. Write it only after the owner approves that exact text. This keeps each module understandable and trustworthy.

Coordinate work

Use the inbox to see released work that belongs to you:

socra cortex inbox

Use socra cortex issue and socra cortex comment to inspect work and add progress. Issue timelines preserve status changes and authored comments.
