The Core App is voice-first — there's no UI to navigate beyond a small status display on the glasses. Almost everything inside a session is conversational; the session lifecycle itself is gated on a tiny handful of explicit commands.

Session lifecycle — explicit commands

Say Effect
"Start training session" Opens the voice channel, starts POV recording, joins the AI participant.
"Stop training session" Closes the session cleanly. Uploads kick off; the post-session pipeline extracts procedures (trainer mode) or seals the trainee session.

These are the only two explicit lifecycle commands today. There's no pause, resume, or cancel — once a session is open you finish it with "Stop training session" and the recording is committed.

Inside a session — conversational

There is no wake word. Once the session is open, the AI is always listening on a server-side voice channel. Speak naturally — examples (all interpreted by the AI, not pattern-matched to fixed commands):

  • "What's the gas valve part number for this Worcester 30CDi?"
  • "Show me the exploded view for the heat exchanger."
  • "Open the manual for this boiler."
  • "How do I bleed the system?"
  • "Look at this fault code and tell me what it means."

The AI decides which skill to call based on your phrasing — search_knowledge, capture_camera, or any of the platform / tenant skills available on your seat. See The AI assistant for the orchestration model.

In trainer mode

In trainer mode the AI listens but generally doesn't intervene — there are no extra fixed commands. Just narrate naturally as you work. Procedure extraction is fully automated by the post-session pipeline; you don't need to mark steps, flag safety, or signal step boundaries by voice.

When the AI can't hear you

Symptom Likely cause Fix
No response at all Voice channel dropped Say "Stop training session" then "Start training session" again.
Repeated misrecognition Background noise / accent Move somewhere quieter, or pair a Bluetooth mic (see Troubleshooting).
