# Advanced Chat Features: Mentions, Stars & Actions
> Learn how to use powerful chat features like @mentions, starring messages, and converting messages directly into trackable Objects.
## Supercharge Your Conversations
Beyond simple messaging, Luklak's Unified Live Chat includes powerful features that work across all three levels of communication—Personal, `⏹️ Space`, and `🧊 Object`. These tools are designed to ensure no information is lost and that conversation can be turned into structured action seamlessly.
This guide covers the three most essential advanced features: notifying colleagues with `@mentions`, bookmarking important information with `Stars`, and turning talk into trackable work by converting a `Message` to an `🧊 Object`.
## Never Miss an Update with @mentions
Use `@mentions` to directly notify specific people or entire groups, ensuring your message gets to the right audience immediately. When a user is mentioned, they receive a notification and the message is highlighted in their Personal Home for easy tracking.
```guidejar theme={null}
# Tutorial: Using @mentions
1. **Start Typing @**
In any chat input box, type the `@` symbol.
2. **Select a User or Role**
A list will appear showing users and Roles (e.g., `@design-team`, `@approvers`) in the current `⏹️ Space`. Select the one you want to notify.
3. **Send Your Message**
Finish typing your message and send it. The mentioned user or group will be immediately notified.
```
## Bookmark Key Information with Stars
A "starred" message acts as a personal bookmark. It's a way to keep track of messages that are important *to you*, without cluttering the main conversation. All your starred messages are conveniently collected in your Personal Home.
```guidejar theme={null}
# Tutorial: Starring a Message
1. **Hover Over a Message**
Move your mouse cursor over the message you want to save.
2. **Click the Star Icon**
A set of action icons will appear. Click the `Star` icon.
3. **Find Your Starred Messages**
To see all your saved messages, navigate to your `Personal Home` and click on the `Starred` section.
```
## Turn Talk into Action: Convert Message to Object
This is the ultimate bridge between unstructured conversation and structured work. Any message—an idea, a request, a bug report—can be instantly converted into a formal, trackable `🧊 Object`. This ensures that valuable insights from conversations are never lost and can be actioned immediately within a proper workflow.
When a user says "Can someone look into this?", you can convert that exact message into a new `🧊 Object` and assign it to the right person in seconds.
```guidejar theme={null}
# Tutorial: Converting a Message to an Object
1. **Hover and Find More Actions**
Move your mouse cursor over the message you want to convert. Click the `...` (More actions) icon.
2. **Select "Convert to Object"**
From the dropdown menu, choose the `Convert to Object` option.
3. **Configure the New Object**
A dialog box will appear. You must:
* Choose the `⏹️ Space` where the new `🧊 Object` will be created.
* Choose the `Object Type` (e.g., Task, Bug, Request) for the new `🧊 Object`.
* The original message content is automatically used as the new Object's description.
4. **Create the Object**
Click `Create`. The `🧊 Object` is now created and a confirmation message with a direct link to it will appear in the chat for everyone to see.
```
