Human direction stays primary
PathNav lets agents prepare, compare, and propose, but the user remains the authority for goals, values, and meaningful changes.
Mission
Keep people and their agents pointed at the same north star.
PathNav exists because the agent era needs more than faster task execution. It needs a private alignment layer that remembers what matters, checks action against direction, and keeps humans in the supervisory seat.
Every agent needs the same anchor
Claude, Cursor, host adapters, device agents, and future assistants should consult one durable alignment layer instead of guessing from fragmented chat history.
Long-term context should survive short-term drift
Humans drift across years. AI agents drift across turns. PathNav holds the anchor for both.
Trust is a product feature
Plugins, tokens, scopes, proposals, and dry-run modes exist so users can invite automation without surrendering judgment.
The product thesis
A life OS for humans. An alignment server for their agents.
PathNav is not trying to become the chat window. The chat windows already exist. PathNav is the place those systems check before they suggest a commitment, draft a plan, reorder a week, or ask for permission to change something that matters.
