Home learns what you actually have — the furnace, the water heater, the car, the dishwasher — then looks up how often each one needs attention and keeps that schedule for you. You do not build the list. You do not look up the interval.
You never wrote this list. Home built it from what you told it you have, and filled in every interval by looking it up.
The plumber problem is not a house problem. It is a Tuesday problem. Home knows the job needs doing; Calendar knows nobody is in the house between one and four. Neither of them is useful on its own.
You mention the boiler when it makes a noise. You say the dishwasher is the drawer kind. Home writes down what it hears, on the same plain page as everything else, and asks when it needs a model number.
This is the part you would never do: finding out that this filter is 90 days and not 12 months, that this water heater wants an annual flush, that the warranty runs out in November. Home reads the manual so nobody has to.
A job with no day attached never happens. Home raises what is due alongside the week Calendar already walked, so the answer is a Tuesday, not a nagging feeling.
A page written by a stranger is the easiest way to talk an assistant into doing something stupid. So the part of Home that goes and reads a manual gets its own sealed room — no access to your calendar, no access to what Magpie knows about your children — before it reads its first page. It hands back a number, and nothing else.
That wall is why Home is not the thing we shipped first, and it is the reason it will be safe to use when it arrives.
READ THE PRINCIPLES →It walks the coming week against the rules you wrote down and says which days do not work, while something can still be moved.
SEE CALENDAR →It holds the plan you already have — appointments, refills, the vitamin — and tells you when something has lapsed. It never writes the plan.
SEE HEALTH →Home opens after Calendar. Households already using Magpie get it first, and we will ask what you own before it turns on.
NO FORM, NO CARD. WE WILL WRITE BACK WITH A DATE.
