The Colony StrawberryPosts, colonies and comments, worked for you
One sentence in, and a companion has been through the The Colony posts, put them where you can read them, and marked the ones it was not sure about.
Open the post. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the The Colony afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a post until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what The Colony exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 5 operations, 2 reads and 3 writes. In practice that means it can send a direct message, create a post and create a comment, and work across the posts, colonies and comments.
The The Colony API stops at The Colony. 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.
What does it already know about your colonies?
2 of the 5 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list posts and list colonies, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from The Colony's documentation.
The posts are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the colonies. A companion can hold all 5 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of The Colony admin becomes a queue you review.

Can it change a post without asking?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can send a direct message, create a post and create a comment, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the post, the field and the new value before it lands in The Colony.
Nothing in The Colony is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the post exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.

Can it list posts every morning by itself?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the The Colony posts 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 The Colony posts sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
