Settings and notifications

Settings in the sidebar holds your organization’s details and Buddy’s defaults. Owners and admins can see it; only owners can change it.

The Settings page: Organization details and Buddy defaults

  • Name and Contact email.
  • Timezone: used for checkpoint and scheduled task times.
  • Times read as: 2:00 PM or 14:00.

What a new conversation starts with, on every site:

  • Model: the AI model Buddy uses.
  • Mode: Auto, Chat, Analyze, Plan or Build. See chat and modes.
  • Reasoning level: how hard Buddy thinks by default.

Anyone can change these for a single conversation from the pickers in the chat.

Site Buddy tells you when something happens on a site you follow:

  • A site stopped running.
  • A checkpoint was restored, or a restore failed.
  • A scheduled task’s run finished.
  • Your organization’s AI provider credential stopped working (owners and admins).

Notifications appear under the bell at the top of the page, and by email. You can also have them sent to Telegram.

Open your user menu (top right) and choose Notifications.

  • Your organization (owners and admins): alerts that affect every site, like a provider rejecting your credential.
  • Sites: for each site, switch In the panel and By email on or off. You follow the sites you own from the start; switch on the others you want to follow.

Changes save as you go.

Under Messaging apps, press Connect Telegram to get the same alerts from the Site Buddy bot in your own private Telegram chat. Connecting sends nothing until you switch it on for the alerts you want.

The Notifications page: Telegram, organization alerts, and per-site switches

Your user menu also has your profile, where you change your name, email address and password.
