Assistant
Sutra Assistant panel behaviour and suggestions.
Panel
Panel defaultWhether the assistant opens with the workspace.
Context depthHow much workspace context Sutra Assistant can see. More context means richer answers but larger token use.
Chat memory
Stateless: Each message is treated independently. Faster, cleaner, and more private, but the Assistant will not remember earlier chat context. Stateful: the Assistant includes recent chat history so replies can follow the conversation. More contextual, but uses more tokens.
Recent messages
Only used in Stateful mode. Include the last few chat messages with each request.
Confirmation modeHow Sutra Assistant applies actions. High-risk actions (replace selection, bulk import, large batches, Canvas mutations) always require confirmation regardless of this setting.
Activity logEvery applied Sutra action is recorded locally with an undo option. The log travels with .sutra / .atelier / JSON backups.
Assistant Memory
Long-term memory lets Sutra Assistant remember stable facts you ask it to keep (study habits, goals, preferences) to personalize help across sessions. It is consent-first and local: it never saves passwords, keys, financial, medical, precise-location, or locked-note content, and it travels inside encrypted .sutra backups. Manage, edit, or forget anything anytime.
Manage MemoryView, search, edit, enable/disable, or forget saved memories. Clear temporary or expired memories. No API key needed.
Chat history
Assistant chats are saved locally in this browser so you can reopen them later. They are included in encrypted .sutra backups by default. API keys, hidden prompts, and provider-internal reasoning are never included.
Manage chatsOpen, rename, pin, archive, delete, search, clear, or export conversations.
AI disclosure and help
Remote AI acknowledgementReopen the provider, model, privacy, and model-quality disclosure.
Assistant guideIn-app guide for optional AI, local versus remote providers, context, memory, privacy, and token usage.
Student preferences
Sutra Assistant uses these when it plans your day/week, builds study/exam plans, and breaks down assignments. They travel with your backups.
School hoursStart / end of your school day (24h). Sutra Assistant avoids scheduling study during these.
Study windowEarliest / latest hour Sutra Assistant will schedule study blocks (24h).
Study block lengthPreferred focus block length in minutes.
Break lengthMinutes of break between study blocks.
Bedtime cutoffLatest hour Sutra Assistant will schedule anything (24h).
Overloaded day thresholdHow many due items + blocks before Sutra Assistant flags a day as overloaded.
Default homework difficultyUsed when Sutra Assistant creates homework without a stated difficulty.
Preferred review styleDefault study mode Sutra Assistant suggests for new decks.
Hardest classesComma-separated. Sutra Assistant gives these more study time.
Local AI endpoint
Optional power-user path. Point Sutra Assistant at an OpenAI-compatible local server (Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp). Requests stay on your device — nothing leaves the browser. Then choose "Local endpoint" as the provider inside the Sutra Assistant panel.
Base URLOpenAI-compatible base, e.g. http://localhost:11434/v1 (Ollama) or http://localhost:1234/v1 (LM Studio).
Model idExact model id served locally, e.g. llama3.1 or qwen2.5.
API keysApplies immediately
Paste a key for each provider you want to use. Keys are session-only by default. You can opt to remember them encrypted on this device; they are never exported or included in Drive sync snapshots. Assistant requests send the key only to the provider you selected.
Get keys from: Groq · OpenAI · Anthropic · Google AI Studio · OpenRouter · NVIDIA · Mistral · Together AI · DeepSeek · xAI · Perplexity
Integrations
Launcher toggles for quick-launch services. These apply immediately.
Integration registry
Integrations are optional. Sutra works without them. Connect only the services you want to use. You can add or remove integrations later in Settings.
Smart Import
Paste or upload text-like documents, review structured suggestions, and apply only approved items. AI output never writes directly into your workspace.
Starter Packs
Set up a workspace in one step — notes, courses, review decks, timeline blocks, and tasks for a goal (AP, college apps, SAT/ACT, projects, and more). Local only, preview before applying, and undoable.

Data & backups
Sutra stores your workspace locally. Use password-encrypted .sutra backups to move it cleanly to another device (older unencrypted .sutra and .atelier backups still import).
Workspace privacy lockOff
Require a device-local 4–8 digit PIN after every refresh and after inactivity. This hides the interface from casual access; it does not encrypt IndexedDB or replace encrypted backups.
Backups
Unencrypted .sutra is an optional compatibility export. It is readable by anyone who gets the file; Sutra asks for confirmation before creating it. Use the encrypted backup for normal protection.

WarningsNone

Last BackupNever
Last RestoreNever
Last verified safety snapshotNever
No persistence warnings recorded.
Interactive restores first offer an encrypted .sutra safety snapshot; browser downloads must be confirmed by you, while backup-folder writes are verified by Sutra. The local recovery journal remains the always-on fallback. Advanced JSON exports are unencrypted.
Sutra Sync BetaOptional · Off by default
Keep this workspace synchronized across devices with end-to-end-encrypted incremental changes. Local saving continues if sync is offline. Sync is not a backup: keep encrypted .sutra recovery copies too.
Google Drive Sync
Off by default. Sutra stays local-first; when you connect Google Drive, snapshots are encrypted in this browser before upload to your Drive app-data folder. Sutra cannot recover a forgotten sync password.
Cloud syncOff
Last cloud syncNever
Pending local changesNo
Remote modifiedUnknown
This deviceNot configured
Connect Google Drive only if you want optional encrypted cloud snapshots.
When on, the encryption key (never the password) is kept in this browser so Sutra can sync automatically on open, on focus, and every few minutes — no unlock prompt. Turn off on shared computers.
Sutra syncs while this app is open, online, unlocked, and authorized. Disconnecting Drive does not delete local workspace data. Manual encrypted .sutra backups are still recommended.
Default backup and export folder
Sutra autosaves your workspace inside this browser. You can optionally choose a local folder for portable .sutra backups and exported files. Folder access is granted by your browser and may need to be renewed later. IndexedDB autosave stays your primary save location.

Packs & advanced
Keep Sutra student-focused by default; turn on a pack only when it helps.
Feature packs
Your Student Setup keeps Today, Capture, Homework, Notes, Timeline, Review & Tests, Focus, and Settings easy to reach. Packs add deeper tools. Hiding a pack never deletes its data; re-enable it anytime.
Academic Pack extras (Course Hub and All Due) live in Layout. Customization Pack (themes, CSS, and optional local plugins) lives in Customization.

Tutorial & onboarding
Onboarding walks you through Welcome, Focus, Setup, AI & Backups, and Tour. The guided tour highlights Daily Thread, Deadline Radar, Sutra Modes, and .sutra backup/restore.
Developer / Experimental
Local Plugins (Experimental)
Install local
.sutra-plugin bundles that extend Sutra with commands, templates, and optional sandboxed code. Off by default — for developers and advanced testing only. Not a normal feature.
Plugins are local bundles only (no marketplace). Runtime code runs in a locked-down sandbox behind an explicit permission allowlist, installs disabled, and must be reviewed before it runs. Restored-from-backup plugins come back disabled and require re-review. Safe Mode skips all plugins.
Customization
Style Sutra with your own CSS. Snippets only change how the app looks — they never run code. Safe Mode recovers you without deleting anything.
CSS Overrides restyle Sutra using plain CSS. They cannot run code, fetch anything, or read your data. If a snippet ever hides part of the interface, Safe Mode restores it without deleting your work.
