MyManual is a Slack agent that helps you create a self-authored user manual — a guide for how to work with you. Surfaced contextually, controlled entirely by you.
Workplace communication norms are invisible and assumed. Neurotypical employees navigate them by intuition; neurodivergent employees, ESL speakers, remote hires, and anyone new are forced to reverse-engineer them — often at real professional cost.
Misread terseness becomes "difficult to work with." A preference for written feedback becomes "can't take criticism live."
Personal user manuals are an established accommodation practice — but today they live in stale Google Docs nobody finds at the moment of interaction. The moment of interaction is Slack.
Three steps to a manual that actually gets seen.
DM the MyManual agent. It runs a warm, structured interview about your communication style, feedback preferences, focus hours, and the things people misread about you.
The agent drafts your manual from your answers. You edit everything before it exists. Optionally, it can look at your own public messages to suggest observations — only yours, only when you ask.
Teammates run /manual @you right before giving feedback or starting a conversation. Your preferences appear at the moment of interaction — not buried in a doc.
Built around consent, self-expression, and interoperability.
Private by default. Publish when you're ready. Unpublish anytime. Nothing is shared without your explicit action.
No personality types, no inference, no labels. Every line is self-authored or confirmed by you. The anti-MBTI.
State preferences without disclosing diagnoses. A sensitive-topic guardrail helps rephrase medical disclosures as preference statements.
MyManual runs an MCP server. Other AI agents can query your preferences — scheduling bots respect your focus hours, standup bots know you prefer written updates.
Your manual lives as a Slack Canvas you own. Human-readable, always accessible, easy to share.
Optionally pre-fill your manual by analyzing your own public Slack messages. Only yours. Only when you ask. Every suggestion requires confirmation.
As AI agents proliferate in Slack, your manual becomes the interface contract for how agents treat you too.
MyManual exposes your published preferences via MCP (Model Context Protocol) — the open standard for AI tool discovery.
