# What you have

After the install, your computer runs an agent you talk to in a terminal window. Around it sit a few pieces that let it remember, follow house rules, keep its notes in order and build web pages. You never operate these pieces by hand — you ask the agent, and it uses them. The picture shows how they connect; each line below says what one piece is and where to read more.

- **Agents and skills** — one folder on your computer holds the agents you can start and the skills that teach them how to work. [UCC folders](#what-you-have/chapter.ucc-folders)
- **A notebook that is backed up** — every piece of work gets a folder of notes, and what is worth keeping graduates into a wiki of your own. [Sessions & wiki](#sessions-wiki)
- **House rules** — small programs that fire at set moments, such as a reminder when an agent has sat idle too long. [Hooks](#what-you-have/chapter.hooks)
- **A helper that keeps the notes** — a program always running in the background, through which your agent reads and writes those notes. [MCP server](#what-you-have/chapter.mcp-server)
- **Edits that never collide** — several agents can write the same notes at once, and a write that would overwrite someone else's is refused instead of lost. [Meridian tools](#what-you-have/chapter.meridian-tools)
- **Web pages with a memory** — your agent publishes pages that anyone with the link can open, and updates them without rebuilding. [ccc-pages](#pages)

When an agent needs an answer from you, it can reach you on [Telegram](#telegram).
