What Friday can actually do.

Open, create, and modify workspace files with safety checks and approval prompts before changes.

Make precise, surgical edits to existing files when a targeted diff is safer than rewriting content.

Execute shell commands and longer-running processes to build, test, inspect, or automate work.

Look things up on the internet when a request needs fresh or verifiable information.

Pull readable content from a specific page or URL and treat it as evidence for the answer.

Drive a real browser to interact with pages when simple fetching is not enough.

Generate images from text descriptions using the configured text-to-image provider and model.

Create, update, pause, resume, list, delete, and run scheduled assistant jobs.

Pull in reusable skill instructions, references, templates, schemas, or optional executable behavior.

Spin up focused helper agents for independent parts of larger work.

Use tools exposed by connected Model Context Protocol servers.
