Lists

Create and manage lists for shopping, tasks, ideas, and anything else you want to track.

Lists for everything

Chalie can create and manage any kind of list — grocery lists, to-do lists, packing lists, wishlists, idea collections. Lists persist across conversations so you can build on them over time.

The Lists view in the Brain dashboard — create and manage any kind of list, persisted across conversations.

Getting started:

  • “Create a grocery list with milk, eggs, and bread.”
  • “Start a packing list for my trip to Berlin.”
  • “Make a to-do list for the kitchen renovation.”

Adding items

Adding to an existing list is natural:

  • “Add apples and olive oil to my grocery list.”
  • “Put ‘buy travel adaptor’ on my Berlin packing list.”
  • “Add ‘call the plumber’ to my to-do list.”

Chalie finds the right list from context — you don’t need to use the exact name.

Viewing a list

Ask to see any list at any time:

  • “What’s on my grocery list?”
  • “Show me my to-do list.”
  • “What do I still need to pack for Berlin?”

Checking items off

Mark items as done as you go — and uncheck them if you change your mind:

  • “I got the milk and eggs — cross those off my grocery list.”
  • “Mark ‘call the plumber’ as done.”
  • “Actually, uncheck the milk — I need to get more.”

Removing items

Permanently remove items from a list (different from checking them off):

  • “Remove eggs from the shopping list.”
  • “Take ‘call the plumber’ off my to-do list.”

Renaming and clearing lists

Rename a list or empty it without deleting it:

  • “Rename my chores list to ‘weekend chores’.”
  • “Clear my grocery list — I’ve done the shop.”

Multiple lists

Chalie tracks as many lists as you need. Each has a name, and you can switch between them by referring to the list by name or by context:

  • “Add this to my shopping list, not the hardware list.”
  • “What lists do I have?”
  • “Delete the Berlin packing list — the trip is over.”

Sharing lists

Lists are stored locally and are not shared by default. If you need to share a grocery list with a partner, the simplest approach is to ask Chalie to read it out loud or copy the contents so you can paste it into a message.
