( The Keepers )

Five Keepers. One shared understanding.

Each Keeper owns one job and nothing else. They are separate agents working from the same history — what was said, what happened before, and which interventions already ran.

Trust Keeper

Vera

Trust you can watch accumulate

Tracks reputation, prior interactions, and how a member's behaviour changes over time. Asked about a member, Vera gives the picture as it accumulated — not a binary good/bad label.

What Vera tracks
  • Reputation, built from how a member has actually shown up here
  • Prior interactions, and how they were resolved
  • Change over time — the direction, not just the current state
  • Members whose standing is high enough to lean on
Works with
  • Reads the shared history every Keeper writes to
  • Gives member standing to Kira before a call is made, regulars to Nova, participation to Mira
01

Observe

Every interaction lands in memory as behaviour, not as text.

02

Accumulate

Standing moves with what a member does, in both directions.

03

Answer

Kira asks who this is; Vera replies with the arc, not a score alone.

04

Update

What happened next writes back, including your overrides.

Culture Learner

Sage

Learns the in-jokes before the rulebook

Picks up norms, recurring language, and the conventions a generic model reads as violations. Sage learns the culture behind the rulebook, not just the wordlist.

What Sage learns
  • Recurring language and the in-jokes that carry it
  • Norms that differ from one channel to the next
  • Conventions a generic model would flag as violations
  • Where your line actually sits, from the policies you define
Works with
  • Reads your rules and exceptions, plus what happened after each intervention
  • Gives the norm at stake to Kira, the room's conventions to Nova and Mira
01

Start from you

Your policies, exceptions, and tolerated language come first.

02

Listen

Reads the room as it is, and notices what it keeps doing.

03

Propose

Surfaces a norm it thinks it has found, and how sure it is.

04

Revise

Every override moves the line, and it stays moved.

Moderator

Kira

Acts early, explains itself, can be overruled

Makes the call, says why, and leaves you in control of anything that matters. Kira never decides in a vacuum — who is speaking and what is normal here arrive before the verdict does.

What Kira does
  • Detects harmful, abusive, spammy, and policy-breaking content as it happens
  • Weighs the call against member standing and the norm at stake
  • Explains every decision in terms you can argue with
  • Sends the ambiguous and sensitive calls to you, context attached
Works with
  • Reads member standing from Vera, the norm at stake from Sage
  • Gives the outcome back to Vera and Sage, incident rates to Mira
01

Ask first

Pulls the member's history and the room's norm before forming a view.

02

Decide

Acts early where it is clear, and says how confident it is.

03

Explain

Every call arrives with its reasoning, never as a bare verdict.

04

Escalate

Anything ambiguous or sensitive reaches you, with what it already tried.

Health Pulse

Mira

Reads the room

Tracks conversation dynamics, participation, and conflict at the room level — mood, not members. Mira watches whether the place still feels like somewhere people want to be.

What Mira watches
  • Conversation dynamics — how a room is talking, not who is talking
  • Participation, and where it is thinning out
  • Conflict at the room level, including disputes that keep resurfacing
  • Channel-by-channel differences in how a community feels
Works with
  • Reads signals from all four other Keepers
  • Gives the room's state to you, and to Nova before it points a newcomer anywhere
01

Aggregate

Pulls participation, tone, and conflict from the shared history.

02

Compare

Against this room's own baseline, never an industry average.

03

Surface

Raises what changed, with the evidence still attached.

04

Report

One readable summary, in the language your community speaks.

Community Guide

Nova

Checks in on the people drifting out

Notices when newcomers or quieter members are falling out of the conversation, and follows up. Moderation doesn't end when a post disappears — Nova checks back on the people involved.

What Nova notices
  • Newcomers who arrived and then went quiet
  • Regulars whose participation is falling away
  • People left at the edge of a conversation after an incident
  • Which rooms are worth pointing someone at right now
Works with
  • Reads the room's conventions from Sage, standing from Vera, room state from Mira
  • Gives who is drifting, and whether the check-in landed
01

Notice

Spots the drop-off before it becomes a member who never came back.

02

Check in

In your community's voice, and only where it would be welcome.

03

Follow up

Tracks whether the issue recurs, not just whether the post went away.

04

Learn

Keeps what brought people back, drops what didn't.

Your community already has a culture.

Give your moderation enough memory to understand it.
