​
Usage

The question is answered by your active twin — the one set by bestmate twin switch. To ask a different twin, switch to it first.
ask takes no target flag. Everything after ask is treated as the question, so bestmate ask kaya "what's up" asks your active twin the question “kaya what’s up” — not the twin named kaya.

Examples

​
Response format

  • The confidence is the twin’s own grounding score for the answer.
  • Pulled from breaks down which memory layers grounded the draft — the useful bit when you’re testing whether something you ingested actually landed.
  • If the twin isn’t confident enough, it says so and notes that in the app this would escalate for a human check.
If the twin has nothing to work with, it tells you plainly rather than guessing:

bestmate take

Your belief-grounded take on a URL or file — where it aligns with or contradicts positions you already hold.

bestmate trace

See exactly what a past answer retrieved and why.

bestmate rag ask

The same question answered purely on-device, with no cloud retrieval.

Escalations

What happens when the twin isn’t confident enough to answer.
