Commands

A complete reference of commands for interacting with Canis.

Voice Uplink

Activate by speaking the wake word or using your Canis Link push-to-talk hotkey. Wait for the chime before speaking your command.

"Hey Canis" ... [Query]
— or —
Hold Canis Link hotkey ... [Query]

Text Uplink

Interact directly in any text channel by tagging the system node followed by your query. Prefer a mention-free shortcut? /ask does the exact same thing.

@Canis [Query]
— or —
/ask text: [Query]

Field Notes

Canis detects your intent. Simply describe the note you want to create within your command. Already know it's a note? /note saves it directly — no intent guessing.

"Hey Canis" or Canis Link hotkey → note that I found a Light Bulb at the Field Depot in the north part of Dam Battlegrounds
@Canis note that Bombardiers spawn in the park next to the Library on Buried City
/note text: Bombardiers spawn near the Library on Buried City

Waypoints

Track goals, crafts, and multi-stage projects. Canis detects your intent - just describe what you want to track or update.

"Hey Canis" or Canis Link hotkey → set a waypoint to collect 15 crude explosives and 3 springs
"Hey Canis" or Canis Link hotkey → just found 2 springs
@Canis how are my waypoints doing

Ask Canis

/ask

Ask Canis anything without mentioning it — game questions, note readback, and more. Equal to tagging @Canis.
