People & Access
- Look up contacts, whitelist guests to text Gilbert, manage who gets your morning picks
- Switch which AI model Gilbert runs on
After a Reboot or Mac Update
- Everything turns itself back on once you log all the way into the Mac โ texting Gilbert, gilberthq.com, picks, briefings, and the trader are background services that auto-restart on login
- They do NOT run at the lock / login screen โ log in fully and give it ~30 seconds
- Confirm it's back โ text /ping (expect ๐ข Online) and /status for a full health report, or open gilberthq.com
- The only thing that won't reappear is an open Terminal chat with Claude โ reopen Terminal and run claude --continue to pick the conversation back up
- A reboot does NOT log Gilbert out of Claude. If /ping works but picks or briefings fail afterward, the Claude login expired on its own โ run /login on the Mac (Gilbert also texts you at 6am / 6pm if it ever detects this)
Anything Else
- Web search & deep research, draft & build things, run your automations on demand โ just ask.
