## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Textcortex?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Textcortex on its own?

No. Every one of the 7 tools is read-only, so LuumenAI can answer questions from Textcortex but cannot change anything in it. Read actions still follow the configured access and approval policy.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Textcortex is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
