After signing in you land in SynWork's "Chat & Tasks" — your main entry point for working with the AI. Ask questions or assign tasks the way you would in a chat.

• Greeting & overview cardsA time-based greeting at the top (e.g. "Good afternoon") with the current date and time; below are the "Pending approval / My to-dos / Today's schedule" overview cards — tap a number to jump to that list.
• Capability cardsLaunch common scenarios in one tap — brainstorm, write an email, deep research, scheduled report, book a meeting. Tap "More" to expand the rest (+12); cards with an "AI" badge are run by the AI.
• Conversation tools"Documents / Panel / Task thread / Distilled knowledge" in the top-right are the tools for the current conversation, available as it unfolds.
• Left panelSearch conversations or start a new one at the top; below, the "Projects" tree holds resident projects such as "To-do proposals" plus each project's conversation list.
• ComposerAt the bottom, "Type / view commands, or ask directly" — pick a model tier (e.g. Cortex1.0 Lite) then ask, or use voice input.

Composer toolbar

The row of small icons above the composer groups the switches you use most when starting a conversation; turn them on as needed.

• Attach ＋ / Quick command /The leftmost "＋" uploads documents / images / tables for the AI to answer with your material; the "/" icon opens the quick-command menu (clear, switch model, etc.).
• Digital employeeThe "General assistant" button picks a digital employee for this conversation, so the AI answers in that role's identity, tone and expertise.
• Thinking mode / Tool confirmationThinking mode = let the model reason first (slower, costs more quota); Tool confirmation = confirm before any tool call (on by default).
• Cross-verification / Intent confirmationCross-verification = check this answer with another model plus evidence; Intent confirmation = when your wording is ambiguous and a wrong answer is costly, ask you first (on by default).
• Connect mobile / Enhance prompt / Model / Voice / SendThe last icon, "Connect mobile", opens a panel so the mobile app / WeCom bot syncs with this device in real time; on the right, "Enhance prompt" expands a draft into a structured prompt, plus model tier (e.g. Cortex1.0 Lite), voice input and send.

Command menu

Tapping the "/" icon on the left of the composer opens the command menu, which gathers conversation actions, model switching and settings entries; type a keyword to filter.

• Clear current conversationOnly clears the messages, keeping the conversation — use it to restart the same topic.
• Compress contextManually compress an overly long history into a summary, saving quota and staying within the model window.
• Switch modelToggle between Cortex1.0 Lite / Pro; use Lite for simple questions, Pro for complex tasks.
• Thinking modeOn, the AI reasons before answering — good for hard problems; off, answers are faster.
• Settings / Tools / SkillsShortcuts at the bottom of the menu that jump to the corresponding settings page.

Roles (digital employees)

Tapping the "Roles" button binds a digital employee to this conversation, so the AI answers as that role's identity, tone and expertise.

• General assistant (default)Not tied to any role — for everyday conversation and miscellaneous tasks.
• How to choosePick one from the list; each employee has a role description, so choose the one that best fits your need.
• Common rolesDigital CEO / CEO assistant / Project manager / Digital CFO and other management & collaboration roles.
• Scientific & professional rolesLaboratory operations assistant, Pharmacovigilance officer, Medical safety physician, Medical writer, Biostatistician, Clinical data manager, Computational biologist, and more.

Connect mobile

"Connect mobile" keeps the mobile app / WeCom bot in real-time sync with this device, so multi-device collaboration stays uninterrupted.

• EntryTap the "Connect mobile" icon on the far right of the toolbar to open the panel.
• Mobile syncTurn on the "InThoth mobile connects to this device" switch to mirror conversations between phone and computer in real time.
• On by defaultThis master switch is on by default; turning it off lets each device chat independently (any device can still sign in and converse on its own).

Prompt enhancement

"Enhance prompt" takes a single draft line and expands it into a structured, fuller prompt so the AI answers more accurately.

• Enhance promptAfter drafting, tap "Enhance prompt" on the right of the composer and the AI fills in background and itemised requirements.
• One-click expansionE.g. "protein purification specific steps" becomes an itemised breakdown of preparation / initial capture / fine (polish) purification / downstream handling.
• Restore originalAfter enhancement the button becomes "Restore original" — tap to return to your initial input.
• Runs on the current modelEnhancement is done by the model selected in the composer dropdown — switching models (e.g. Lite↔Pro) gives different results.
• When to useWhen your requirement is too brief and you want a more thorough answer, enhance first then send.

Conversation tools · Documents

"Documents" in the top-right gathers every document produced or referenced in this conversation, ready to retrieve at any time.

• OpenTap "Documents" in the top-right to pop up the list of documents for this conversation.
• List infoEach row shows filename, size and time; report-type documents also carry a version number.
• Preview / Share / DownloadThree buttons per document — preview online, share with others, download locally.
• UseQuickly find files the AI generated, or that you uploaded / referenced in the conversation.

Conversation tools · Panel

"Panel" is the right-hand drawer that previews the background tasks triggered by the current conversation in real time.

• OpenTap "Panel" in the top-right to expand the "Background tasks" drawer.
• What you seeThe tasks run in the background by this conversation; "No content" when there are none.
• ActionsThe top-right of the drawer can refresh, go full-screen or close.
• UseKeep an eye on long-running task progress while you chat.

Conversation tools · Task thread

"Task thread" locks a goal and milestones for a long-running task so the AI keeps to the main thread and doesn't drift.

• OpenTap "Task thread" in the top-right to expand the panel.
• Draft the threadTap "＋ Lock a goal & milestones for a long task · Draft thread" and the AI breaks out the goal and phase milestones.
• EffectContinuously aligns goals across multiple turns, avoiding digression or omission.
• UseFor complex tasks spanning many turns that need phased progress.
