The chat panel

Your chats

Like every panel, the chat panel has a left picker. It lists your chats newest-first - a chat jumps to the top whenever you send in it. A chat is one thread; start a fresh one when you switch to a different line of work.

• New chat - open a clean conversation.
• Search chats - filter the list by name to find an earlier one.
• Collapse - tuck the picker away for a full-width conversation.

While Mesh is working

Ask for something and Mesh works in the open. A live line shows what it's doing right now - thinking, checking your workspace, reading a Library File, generating an Image - and each step flips from present to past tense as it finishes. It's a plain-language trail, never raw machinery.

Stop Mesh mid-answer and anything it already saved stays saved - only the unfinished part goes away.

Reading a message

Your messages sit in a darker bubble; Mesh's answers sit on a clean white one. Two small badges frame each of your messages, so you can always tell what context it carried.

What Mesh did

When Mesh creates or edits something, a slim receipt appears under its answer - so you can see the result and open it, not just take its word. A receipt only shows once the change is truly saved.

The chat box

Type your message and Send it - the same button becomes Stop while Mesh answers. The row of buttons under the box is how you hand Mesh exactly the right context.

Pinned above the box

Whatever Mesh is anchored to rides as a chip just above the box, so you can always see the context in play. Two things live here: the active map, and anything you've pinned.

• The active map - when a map is active, a green band names it (with the active topic, or No topic yet), and the whole box picks up a faint green tint - a quiet reminder that your work is flowing through that map. Clear Active Map sets it loose.
• Your pins - pinned sources sit in a gray band under a pin, each with an Unpin from chat control. Pin up to five; past that you'll see an N/5 count.

Pinning is not the same as activating. A pin says keep this handy; only the active map re-centers where new work belongs. Set the active map from your map.

Commands

A command is a saved instruction you run by name instead of retyping it. Type / or tap Run command to open the picker, then choose one - or make your own.

Mesh can't watch the whiteboard as you draw, so these two are how you show it your work - each capture is saved to your Images exactly as it looked when you sent it.
