Read every cours, draft every course, approve in one pass
A companion works the 4 operations your Illumidesk account exposes. It can invite a course member and create a course, and every one of those waits on an approval card showing the cours before it changes.
Open the cours. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Illumidesk afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a cours until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Illumidesk exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 4 operations, 1 read and 3 writes. In practice that means it can invite a course member, create a course and create a course lesson, and work across the courses, courses and course lessons.
The Illumidesk API stops at Illumidesk. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Which Illumidesk courses does a companion see?
1 of the 4 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list courses, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Illumidesk's documentation.
The courses are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the courses. A companion can hold all 4 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Illumidesk admin becomes a queue you review.
- List Courses
Which courses wait for your approval?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can invite a course member, create a course and create a course lesson, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the cours, the field and the new value before it lands in Illumidesk.
Nothing in Illumidesk is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the cours exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.

Can the courses pass run every Monday?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Illumidesk courses pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the busywork, the Illumidesk courses sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
