host stays a wry window (the rig needs the web runtime), but the compositor
flags it by role and pins it to the home layer with the clock — no zone minted,

will eventually need the OSK, so she must be *able* to take focus when spoken

changing content on other apps, not today.
### Q1a. How do we talk to her?
Decided 2026-08-06: **she is the face of the existing voice pipeline, not a
second chat UI.** The left sidebar is already the long-form chat log and the
normal place to engage; she stays in sync with it (that sync is considered

the utterance goes through the existing STT → agent → TTS systems, the sidebar
logs it, and she is simply the face of that. This means she needs touch/press
handling on the home tier, not a text keyboard, and the compositor exemption
is about gesture routing, not about focus for typing.
### Q2. What does she do when nobody is talking to her?
The reference idles with random lines from `message.json`. Annie has a
