Kanvas Help

Version 0.20.0. Get a useful visual onto a screen, then work with it together.

1. KANVAS is a persistent display workspace controlled through MCP tools. It can show text, lists, charts, documents, media, comparisons and interactive views.

2. Start with your task: show something, work with an existing view, or share a screen. Ask for a focused how-to when needed.

3. Opening Help only returns guidance. It does not publish a deck, create a session, or change an existing display. Choose an activity if you want a hands-on example.

- A tour built around your work — Agent instructions for a live, context-aware tour, never a fixed demo deck.

- Publish your first view — One call sets up a fresh authorized workspace and returns real viewer links.

- Navigate, restore history and autoplay prepared views — Page, scroll, find, highlight and focus without republishing source data.

- Connect a private screen or open a public session — Invite a browser without confusing its address with permission.

- Compare products or offers — Line up vendors and ordered attributes with exact prices and complete URLs.

- Show external websites — Edge-to-edge public pages, optional mobile viewports and honest static fallbacks.

- Set numbers, units and dates — Use regional display preferences without changing exact source strings.

- Choose a template — Use the current catalog and exact field schema instead of guessing.

- Recover from a failed call — Find the real error, correct the input, and retry without duplicating work.

- Use Kanvas Help with an agent — Learn a user-chosen task with live context and real interaction.

- Read comfortably at your own pace — Independent text size, zoom and words-per-minute controls for document reading.

- Show task progress and exact logs — Accumulate real milestones, inspect dense logs and use proportional timelines.

- Invite someone to KANVAS — Create a welcome link without granting private access or sending a message.

- A live Home for your sessions — A real KANVAS display, deliberate session choices and ordinary OAuth.

- Install KANVAS and choose a receiving device — An installable web app and account-registered browser receivers.

- Read messages and technical work — Source-driven email, inbox, chat, cards, bookmarks and developer/operations views.

- Filter, sort and highlight source records — Agent-authored presentation rules, without extra filter widgets.

- Profiles, organizations and independent teams — Optional photos, clear appearance precedence and explicit group access.

- Your activity history and access audit — Query actual retained events and create charts within your current permissions.

- Live people, devices, browser windows and participant map — A live connection hierarchy, distinct from the chronological overview list.

- Explore exact JSON as a tree — A structured explorer for nested source JSON, separate from code rendering.

- Point together at the same content — Optional named semantic markers that follow text and data across screen sizes.

- Show full images, team logos and drawing backgrounds — Source-preserving media with optional per-image information.

- Report an issue at the right scope — Separate session observations, private account feedback and general service requests.
