Getting around

Pick up each chat where you left it, go back and forward between chats, and what is new since you were last there.

Where you left off#

Every chat remembers where you were reading. Open it again and you land there,
not at the bottom. The place is kept on the server, so it follows you to your
phone.

  • If the chat has something new since you last looked, it opens at the first new
    message, with a New line above it.
  • If nothing is new, it opens where you stopped.
  • If you were at the end, or never opened the chat, it opens at the latest.
  • A notification, Needs you and the Inbox always open at the latest.

Scrolling only counts once you do it yourself, so a chat that was loading never
overwrites your place.

Back and forward#

Switching chats, or opening a bookmark or a search hit, adds a step to your
browser history. Jumping around inside a chat does not. So Back means the
chat or bookmark you came from, and it returns you to the spot you were at.

  • The arrows next to the sidebar toggle (desktop) and beside the menu (phone) go
    back and forward. Right-click, or hold on a phone, for the list of chats they
    would pass.
  • The browser's own keys work too, and AgentOS binds none of them: ⌘[ and ⌘]
    or ⌘← and ⌘→ on a Mac, Alt+← and Alt+→ elsewhere, a mouse's side buttons, and
    the swipe from the edge on iPhone and iPad.

Switching chats#

  • ⌘P (Ctrl+P elsewhere), or O then C, opens the palette's Sessions tab
    with the chats you opened most recently first. It starts on the one before this
    one, so Enter flips back.
  • G then P flips to the previous chat without opening anything. Press it
    again to flip back.
  • ⌘↑ / ⌘↓ move through the sidebar, as before.
  • ⌘K is the command palette; it lists your recent chats first.

Shortcuts#

Press ? (or use the keyboard icon at the bottom of the sidebar, which is the
way in on a phone) for the list, with a search box.

Letters work like Linear's: C starts a chat, G then I / B / M /
S goes to the Inbox, Bookmarks, Messages or Settings. They only act when you
are not typing in a field, a terminal or a dialog. If they get in your way, turn
them off with the switch at the bottom of the shortcuts panel (per browser), or
with "Turn off single-key shortcuts" in the palette. ⌘K, ⌘P and ⌘↑/⌘↓ stay on.
