The words, in the order they come up.

Agent
An AI with a job, your facts, and tools. It finishes a task instead of talking about it.
Prompt
What you type to the AI. In the accelerator, one prompt makes one piece of your agent.
Brief
One short page of facts about your business. Your agent opens one at a time.
Skill
A page of steps the agent follows for one job, like scoring a lead or writing a note.
Tool
A small thing the agent can do, like look up a company or check who you already contacted.
Actor
One lookup tool on Apify. Your agent rents two: one finds firms, one finds the people at them.
Run
One pass of the Monday job, start to finish. Every run is saved with what it found and what it cost.
Schedule
The clock that starts a run on its own. Monday, 8am.
Review page
The web page where you read each note, edit it, copy it, and click Mark sent.
Database
Lists built for software to read and write. Your agent's memory lives in one, on Supabase.
Table
One list in the database, like one tab in a spreadsheet. Your agent has four.
eve
The framework your agent is built with. Vercel makes it. Claude Code handles it for you.
Terminal
The text box where you type a command and the computer does it. Claude Code lives here.
Folder
Your agent. Every piece is one file in this folder. Nothing more.
Repo
Your folder, saved on GitHub with its whole history. Short for repository.
Commit
A saved snapshot of your files, with a one-line note about what changed.
Push
Upload your saved changes to GitHub.
Pull
Download the latest copy from GitHub.
Deploy
Put your agent online, so it runs with its own link while your computer is off.
Key
A password for software. It lets your agent use a service like Apify. Never paste one into a chat.
Environment variable
A setting your agent reads when it starts, like a key. It lives on Vercel, never in a file you share.
Cap
The most a run is allowed to spend or fetch. Your agent stops at the cap, every time.
