The World Model has a side panel where you can ask Ellie about whatever you are looking at. As it searches, the globe lights up the nodes it visits, so you watch the answer being found.

## Four ways into your org

A rail on the left groups the World Model into recurring problems, people and teams, product areas and product decisions. Each has a colour that matches the globe, chips that open a single item, and an arrow that shows the whole category. Show everything mixes all four.

## Ellie answers in the side panel

Ask from the panel and Ellie knows what you are looking at: the scope line reads "Scoped to Recurring problems · All time" or "Asking about" the node you opened. A focused node has Story and Ask Ellie tabs, and switching between them keeps both the thread and your place in the story.

## Watch the search on the globe

While Ellie searches, the globe opens each node it visits, one after another, and draws the lines between them. The nodes stay lit and join the cluster you are focused on, and reopening an old conversation opens the nodes that answer cited.

## Common questions answer fast

Starter questions such as "Why is this happening?" on an issue, or "What's broken right now?" on the overview, are answered from fixed graph queries, so a click skips the slower planner.

On the full-page Ask Ellie chat, World Model answers render as cards with the nodes they cited and an Open in World Model link.

## Improvements

- World Model: A concise Overview panel on one type scale.
- World Model: Teams link to their members, and decisions are labelled by title.
- World Model: Each root fills its seed cluster and sizes it to the room.
- World Model: A rotating loading caption while the globe fetches your org.
- World Model: Orbs are shaded as spheres and a focused cluster spreads evenly.

## Fixes

- World Model: Switching Ellie chats replaces the nodes on the globe.
- World Model: A history conversation opens on its own subject and the nodes it named.
- World Model: Labels stop piling up: one overflow marker per parent and type.
- World Model: Nodes opened by search connect even when their link is off screen.
- World Model: Breadcrumbs name a focused decision by its title.
- Ask Ellie: World Model answers keep their sources and link back to the globe.
