The chat

Reference archive: this page documents the original Yab browser. Features, platforms and release dates here do not describe the current Veb prototype. Veb release plans →

Every conversation with your agent, in a column on the right: its steps, its tabs, its questions.

View › Show Chat opens the chat beside the page, and ⇧esc hides it. It shows the chat of the tab in front, else the chat you had open, else a new one, with ideas for the page you’re on when there is something useful to suggest.

When you start a chat, the tab in front goes with your message; its × leaves it out. + adds another open tab, a screenshot of this one or a file, and you can drop files and links on the column too.

Follow it#

While it works, the line under the chat’s title says what it is doing. When it needs you, for a choice, a sign-in or a yes, a card stands over the field: pick a choice by its number, or type your own answer.

Nothing sits under a message. Right-click an answer for Copy, Ask Again, Repeat and Tabs and Steps, the tabs it opened and every step; on iPhone, press and hold it. The time shows over a turn, as in Messages, when it came 15 minutes or more after the one before.

When an answer is done, Done ⌘↩ closes the chat and its task’s tabs, and ⌥⌘↩ is done but keeps them open.

In a new chat, the model under the title is the one it goes to. Click it to choose another, from any plan you have.

Edit a message#

Right-click your message and choose Edit: its words go in the field, and that turn and the ones after it dim. Change the words and ↩ sends from there; the turns after it go. esc keeps them as they were.

Your chats#

The clock at the top lists your chats, newest first, with tasks and routines under their own headings; search them from its field. A chat you haven’t opened in a month goes to Archived Chats, in the list’s ⋯ menu, beside Unread Only. Change how long in Settings › AI › Agents › Archive chats you haven’t opened in, or pin a chat to keep it. Right-click one to pin, archive or delete it. In the field, chats ⇥ finds them too.
