Things it asks first

Some things ask the sky — the Journal's AI — can do can't be taken back, or send something out. These are guarded twice: by a switch you set, and by your yes each time.

#Which ones

• sending an entry to the burn pile, or deleting a journal — both can still be pulled back for 30 days
• burning the burn pile now
• making a share, or sending a show out
• putting an entry's words on the shuttle, or taking an item off it
• taking a template or an effect pack off the phone
• taking the sky's background picture away
• restoring a backup from Google Drive over everything on this phone
• burning the remembered talks, or writing them to a file
• throwing away a crash report

In settings › "ask the sky" › "what it may do", each wears ⚠.

#The switch

settings › "ask the sky" › "let the sky do things that cannot be undone". It starts off.

• Off — any such action is held back without asking you, and the reply says "refused — things that cannot be undone are switched off in settings · ask the sky".
• On — the ask pauses and the sheet shows "⚠ the sky wants to: … that cannot be undone." with "allow it" and "no". For sending to the burn pile and deleting a journal it says "⚠ the sky wants to: <title>. you have 30 days to pull it back." instead. "no" is answered "refused — you said no".

The sky can never turn this switch on. Only you can.

#Other Zenith apps

While the switch is off, these actions aren't offered to other Zenith apps' AI at all. See How the Journal fits the suite.
