Specialist Roles

What a role is

A role is a curated set of expert instructions layered onto whichever Calanthe model you are using. Pick "Code Reviewer" and she reviews like a senior engineer; pick "Math Tutor" and she teaches step by step instead of just handing you the answer. Same Calanthe, sharper focus.

How to pick a role

In the chat: click the role picker in the chat header and choose from the list. A small badge shows which role is active.
From the roles hub: every role's page at /roles has a button that opens a new chat with that role already active.
By link: add ?role= and the role's name to a new-chat link, for example /c/new?role=code-reviewer. Handy for bookmarks.

Roles stick to the conversation

A role applies to the conversation where you picked it and stays active for that conversation, even when you come back later. New chats start without a role unless you choose one. You can switch roles or clear the role at any time from the picker.

Roles work in voice

On paid plans, roles carry into voice conversations. Pick Interview Coach and practice answers out loud, or have the Math Tutor talk you through a problem.

Roles and your plan

Roles work with whichever models your plan includes, on every plan. They pair especially well with the more capable models: a Code Reviewer on Calanthe Plus can hold a very large codebase in view at once.
