Actions You Can Take

After viewing preferences, you can:

1. Teach Geoffrey something new:

   "I prefer window seats on flights, not aisle"
   

2. Update existing preferences:

   "Actually, I prefer Hilton over Marriott now"
   

3. Delete preferences:

   "Forget my airline preferences"
   

4. Ask questions:

   "Why do you think I prefer morning flights?"
   "How confident are you about my hotel preferences?"
   

File Format

The preferences.json file has this structure:

{
  "version": "1.0",
  "last_updated": "2025-11-17T10:30:00Z",
  "preferences": {
    "travel": {
      "hotels": {
        "primary_chain": "Marriott",
        "loyalty_tier": "Platinum Elite",
        "room_preferences": ["high floor", "away from elevator"],
        "confidence": 1.0,
        "learned_from": ["explicit:2025-11-17"],
        "last_updated": "2025-11-17T10:30:00Z"
      }
    }
  }
}

Privacy & Security

• Local storage only: Preferences stored in your iCloud, not on any server
• Syncs across your devices: Via iCloud Drive
• You control the data: Edit or delete the JSON file directly if needed
• No analytics: Geoffrey never sends your preferences anywhere

Troubleshooting

If /preferences shows nothing:

• Check if the knowledge file exists
• Initialize with: mkdir -p ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Geoffrey/knowledge
• Teach Geoffrey something to create initial file

If file is corrupted:

• Backup: cp preferences.json preferences.backup.json
• Fix JSON formatting or reset to empty: {}

If preferences not syncing:

• Verify iCloud Drive is enabled
• Check iCloud storage space
• Wait a few minutes for sync

Implementation Notes

This command should:

1. Read the preferences.json file
2. Parse and format for display
3. Show confidence scores with visual indicators
4. Group by category
5. Provide summary statistics
6. Offer next action suggestions
