What's the Khint idea bar?
The palette opens on a "Tell Khint what to do" input. Type what you want done in plain language, for example "summarize this and file it in Jira", and press Enter. Khint turns the sentence into a plan: a one-off workflow built from your own agents and the tools you've connected. You see the plan before anything runs, confirm it, and it runs. A chat window would give you text to copy; this gives you the work done, in the tools your team already reads.
Do I have to build an agent or a workflow first?
No, and that's the point. The idea bar is the way in for work you haven't set up yet: Khint writes the steps for this run. If the result was good it offers to save them, so the throwaway run becomes a reusable agent or workflow you can trigger by shortcut afterwards. You end up with a library you described rather than one you assembled.
What can Khint plan with?
The agents in your active pack, plus the write actions of the integrations you've connected: create a Jira issue, create a Confluence page, create a Linear issue, create a Notion page, post to Slack, draft a Gmail email. Anything it can't cover with those is reported on the plan card as unmet instead of being quietly dropped, so you never discover a missing step mid-run.
Can I speak my idea, or act on something on my screen?
Both. With the palette open, your dictation shortcut sends the transcript to the idea bar instead of pasting it into the app behind: the text is filled in, never fired, so you read back what Khint heard and press Enter yourself. Capture & ask carries the same entry point from the other side, a "Do this" button on an answer or on a fresh capture, where Khint plans from what it read from the screen and puts the created issue key or page link on your clipboard.
Does the idea bar read my selected text?
The run does; the planning does not. Your selected text is never sent to the planner: it only ever sees the sentence you typed, your agent names, and which tools you've connected. The plan card then shows you the text the run will actually work on before you confirm.
What does it cost to plan and to run?
Planning is free and never spends credits, so a plan you cancel costs nothing. Running it costs what the same work would cost as a normal run: one action's worth of your monthly credits per AI step, and nothing extra for the steps that write to your tools.
