Docs · Quick prompt
Answer an agent without attaching.
space docks a prompt bar at the bottom of the sidebar. The target
follows the cursor while the bar is open, and ↑↓ still navigate.
On a session, on a group
On a session row, enter sends the typed text straight into that
session's pane, so the agent gets it as a user message without you attaching. The bar clears
and stays open, ready for the next answer; settings can make it close instead.
On a group row, enter spawns a new agent in that group with the
prompt embedded, using the group's default path. The spawn tool starts at the settings
default and tab cycles it, with the footer showing the current pick. The agent
starts on the prompt immediately.
Pasting an image
ctrl+v pastes an image from the system clipboard as an
[Image #1] chip at the caret. The image is saved under
agent-manager-pastes in your temp directory, and on send each chip is swapped
back for its path, so the paths reach the agent in the order and the places you pasted them.
backspace next to a chip removes the whole chip, and an edit that swallows one
releases its image. A clipboard holding text pastes as text. Pasted images older than seven
days are cleared at startup and once a day while the manager runs, so an agent can still open
one from an earlier session while temp stays tidy.
The bar's keys
- enterSend into the pane, or spawn in the group.
- ↑↓Retarget while the bar stays open, so three answers are three sentences.
- tabCycle the tool a spawn will use.
- ctrl+vPaste a clipboard image as a chip.
- backspaceAt the start of the text, removes the nearest chip.
- escClose the bar.
A /slash command reaches the agent as a slash command; the self-naming directive
follows as its own message rather than mangling it. The new-session form's optional prompt
field launches an agent the same way, and tools whose CLI takes the prompt behind a flag
declare it with prompt_flag.
