Why

Agents use the bundled buzz_help guide to answer product questions. The guide already reflects the current app dock, Activity placement, and first-agent setup, but it omits shipped Bestie settings, a clear path from Builderlab sign-in to a remote Bestie, and key local-agent settings.

What

  • Explain that Bestie is an existing agent chosen as a personal default, not a separate agent type or permission grant.
  • Document the Bestie and Former Bestie tabs, Remembers you, private-channel membership, and hourly check-ins.
  • Explain Builderlab accounts, remote-agent setup, same-account management, mobile restore, and what works while signed out.
  • Map Identity, Settings, Memory, Activity, and plugin-added agent tabs, and explain thread-scoped versus channel-scoped sessions.
  • Explain where Attention is controlled, how to start it, and which local and hosted agents support it.
  • Preserve the current guidance for the pinned conversation and opt-in first-agent flow.

How

Extend the existing agent, Bestie, Builderlab, and Attention sections in docs/buzz-help.md, which the buzz_help tool bundles directly. The copy follows the shipped plugin READMEs and implementation on the current main branch.

Risk

This is a documentation-only change. Inaccurate copy could mislead agents, so each new capability and limitation was checked against its current source owner.

Testing

No manual testing. This changes bundled documentation only.
