Chat

Ask, review, and stay in control

Chat is where you tell a mind what you need and read its response. You can draft a message, paste images, stop long work, review tool activity, and change models when needed.

Send messages

Type what you want the mind to do in the message box, then send it. Short messages are fine. More detail helps when the task has rules or a specific audience.

1

Say the outcome

Start with the result you want, such as a summary, plan, draft, or answer.

2

Add useful context

Include details the mind needs, but do not include secrets or passwords.

3

Send and wait

The mind may answer quickly or show progress while it works.

Use drafts

A draft is text you have typed but not sent yet. Use drafts to collect your thoughts before asking the mind to act.

  • Edit the draft until it says exactly what you want.
  • Send only when you are ready for the mind to respond.
  • Clear the message box if you decide not to send the draft.

Paste images

You can paste an image into chat when you want the mind to look at a screenshot, diagram, chart, or other visual detail.

  • Copy the image from another app, then paste it into the chat message.
  • Add a sentence explaining what the mind should notice or answer.
  • Check the image before sending so you do not share private information by mistake.

Stop long work

If a mind is taking too long, going in the wrong direction, or working on something you no longer need, use the stop control.

  • Stop ends the current response or task attempt.
  • You can send a new message afterward with clearer instructions.
  • If a tool already completed an action, stopping does not undo that action.

Read responses

Chamber formats replies so they are easier to scan. The mind may use headings, lists, links, code blocks, or tables depending on the answer.

  • Markdown: headings, bold text, lists, and links appear formatted.
  • Code: technical snippets appear in separated blocks for easier reading.
  • Tables: comparison or planning details may appear in rows and columns.

Tool and work-log panels

Some tasks need the mind to use tools or record progress. Chamber may show panels so you can review what happened without mixing every detail into the main answer.

Work logs show the steps a mind is taking, including tools it is using and progress while it works.
  • Tool panel: shows tool requests, results, or approval prompts.
  • Work-log panel: shows progress notes and steps the mind has taken.
  • Open panels when you want detail. Collapse them when you only need the answer.

Choose and switch models

A model is the AI engine the mind uses to answer. Chamber may offer more than one. You can switch models when you need a different balance of speed, depth, or cost.

1

Open model selection

Find the model control near the chat or mind settings when available.

2

Pick the model for the task

Use faster models for quick work and stronger models for harder reasoning.

3

Switch if the result is not right

Changing models affects future replies. It does not rewrite earlier messages.

Safety note

Review tool requests before approving them, especially if they could change files, send data, or contact another service. Do not paste passwords, private keys, or other secrets into chat.
