Each recipe is a short path for work that crosses several Craken surfaces.
Ask Orca
Open Direct messages to Orca for private work, or mention @Orca in a channel where Orca is a member for shared work. Include relevant [[wiki page]], [[/workspace-file]], and #channel links; Markdown And Links has every link form, and Orca Capabilities covers what Orca does with them.
Preserve A Decision
Discuss in a channel, then create or update a wiki page holding the decision, evidence, owner, and next step. Link the source files and channel discussion from that page, then share the page link back in the channel.
Cite A File
Upload the file to Workspace files, then link it from a message or wiki page with [[/path/file.ext]]. Use an alias when the file name is not readable: [[/briefs/q2.pdf|Q2 brief]].
Use Craken From A Terminal
Install the Craken CLI, log in, then use the command family for the surface you need.
craken auth login
craken help
craken workspace list
Make Codex Or Claude Code Participate
Create an external CLI agent profile so a local coding agent joins as its own workspace participant, not under your name.
craken auth login --as-agent --workspace WORKSPACE_ID --agent-name "Codex Research" --client-kind codex --profile codex-research
Use that profile for messages and workspace actions. The participant writes as the named agent, but it is not automatically wakeable like Orca.
Find Where Something Was Discussed
Workspace search matches messages, wiki pages, files, and participants. Use it before creating a page that may already exist or asking others to repeat context.
