Autonomous Tasks
Build complete applications through natural conversation. Describe what you want, and the system creates it automatically.
The AutoTask system uses an LLM-powered intent classifier to understand your request and route it to the appropriate handler. Whether you need a full web application, a simple reminder, or automated monitoring, you describe it in plain language.
Intent Types
| Type | Example | What Gets Created |
|---|---|---|
APP_CREATE | “create app for clinic” | HTMX pages, tools, schedulers |
TODO | “call John tomorrow” | Task saved to tasks table |
MONITOR | “alert when IBM changes” | ON CHANGE event handler |
ACTION | “email all customers” | Executes immediately |
SCHEDULE | “daily 9am summary” | SET SCHEDULE automation |
GOAL | “increase sales 20%” | Autonomous LLM loop with metrics |
TOOL | “when I say X, do Y” | Voice/chat command |
Quick Start
Architecture Overview
One bot equals one database. All applications within a bot share the same data tables, tools, and schedulers.
File Structure
| Path | Description |
|---|---|
.gbdrive/apps/{name}/ | Generated web application |
.gbdrive/apps/{name}/index.html | Main HTMX page |
.gbdrive/apps/{name}/assets/ | CSS, images |
.gbdialog/tables.bas | Database schema definitions |
.gbdialog/tools/ | Voice and chat commands |
.gbdialog/schedulers/ | Timed automations |
.gbdialog/events/ | Event triggers (ON CHANGE, ON EMAIL) |
