## What ShadowTalk AI is

ShadowTalk AI is a **sovereign agentic AI workspace** (web + PWA + desktop) that combines:

- **Encrypted cloud chat** with passphrase unlock (E2EE at rest)
- **Mission Control (S.E.E.)** — multi-step autonomous missions with human-in-the-loop approval
- **30+ tools** triggered from natural language: web search, deep research, images, code execution, URL scrape, security audit, presentations, agents
- **ShadowTalk Live** — real-time voice conversations
- **Dedicated apps:** strategy agent, IDE, marketplace agents, knowledge graph, Stealth Vault, content forge, cyber command
- **Privacy-first:** transparency pages, BYOK, optional on-device Gemma/WebGPU (Elite-oriented)
- **Not a ChatGPT wrapper** — designed to *finish jobs* across tools, not single-shot replies

**Tagline:** Think AI. Think ShadowTalk.
