Agent Studio
Agent Studio is the chat-first way to use a saved agent. The chat is the main surface, and the canvas folds into a slim strip you can reopen.
One sandbox per chat
A chat gets one warm sandbox, and follow-ups reuse it. A paused sandbox is woken with its files. Only a destroyed sandbox is replaced, and the chat says so.
Honest status and errors
The status line shows what is happening: starting the sandbox, starting the agent, thinking. A failed message shows the platform’s own message, its code, and one hint, shown once on the turn.
The workspace panel
A workspace panel sits beside the chat, with the same tabs as Optimal:
- Preview
- Files
- Code
- Terminal
- Machine
- Logs
It opens on the chat’s first activity and shows the chat’s own sandbox.
A clean conversation
Harness wording such as Overdrive warnings and the stdin banner never reaches the chat. Overdrive is one quiet chip beside the composer with a tooltip. Tool rows stay inside the chat: a long argument can no longer widen it, and commands, arguments, and JSON output are readable.
Past chats are kept per agent in both Agent Studio and the agent page.
