Live data — pages that stay current
A document can be backed by a small dataset so its numbers stay fresh without republishing the whole page.
The flow: your assistant creates a dataset (create_dataset), binds it to the page (bind_file), and from then on updating the data (update_dataset) updates what the page shows.
The best part is scheduling it. Claude can set up a Routine — or ChatGPT a scheduled task — that fetches whatever the numbers come from and calls update_dataset on a schedule. Your dashboard then updates itself every morning without anyone opening it.
The Live module (in the switcher at the top of every page) lists every table and what it is keeping current. Each table has a page of its own showing its shape, its freshness and everything that reads it — and the rows are an editable grid, so a person can correct a number by hand without an assistant. Members with a writer role can also see Connections, the wiring between tables, pages and plans.
