Hi,
'Could' can express such concepts:
ability (potential), possibility :
I could write the report. (now or later)
I could run 3 miles every day when I was in my 20's. (in the past)
I could have written the report. (but I didn't write)
permission:
You could use my computer. (now or later; there is a notion of condition here)
