Chat
The Chat page is where you interact with Jitera’s AI agents. You can have one-on-one conversations, collaborate with your team in shared threads, and get work done across research, writing, code, and more.
Layout
The Chat page has two regions:
- Sidebar (left) — Lists your recent and active chats under the Chats section.
- Main content area (right) — The active conversation thread with the selected agent.
Starting a new chat
- Click New chat or the ”+” icon in the Chats section of the sidebar.
- Select which agent to use (Context Agent, Code Agent, or Web Search).
- Type your message in the input field at the bottom of the chat.
- Press Enter or click Send.
The agent responds in the same thread. You can continue the conversation with follow-up messages.
Chat interface
Message thread
The conversation is displayed as a vertical thread of messages:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| User avatar | Shows who sent the message (identified by initial or profile picture). |
| Agent avatar | The Jitera agent icon, indicating an agent response. |
| Message content | The text of the message, which may include formatted text, code blocks, tables, or links. |
| Typing indicator | Shown when the agent is processing a response. |
Multi-user conversations
Multiple team members can participate in the same chat:
- All participants see the full conversation history.
- Each person’s messages are labeled with their avatar and name.
- The agent responds to the most recent message and considers the full thread context.
This makes chat ideal for collaborative tasks like brainstorming, reviewing drafts, or making decisions as a group.
Input area
The message input at the bottom of the chat supports:
- Text input — Type your message.
- File attachments — Upload files for the agent to analyze (PDFs, images, spreadsheets, etc.).
- Rich formatting — Basic markdown formatting in messages.
Chat history
All chats are saved automatically and listed in the sidebar under Chats. Each entry shows:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Chat title | Auto-generated from the first message, or a custom title you set. |
| Preview | A snippet of the last message in the conversation. |
| Timestamp | When the chat was last active. |
Click any chat in the sidebar to resume the conversation.
Working with agents in chat
Context-aware responses
Agents use your team’s organizational memory and documents to provide relevant answers. For example:
- Ask “What were our Q3 goals?” and the Context Agent references your strategy documents.
- Ask “Summarize last week’s meeting” and it pulls from your meeting notes.
Agent actions
During a conversation, agents can:
- Create documents — Ask an agent to draft content, and it creates a document in your workspace.
- Search the web — The Web Search agent finds current information in real time.
- Analyze files — Upload a file and ask the agent to summarize, extract data, or answer questions about it.
- Write code — The Code Agent generates, reviews, and explains code.
Quick actions
From the Chat page you can:
- Start a new chat — Begin a conversation with any available agent.
- Resume a chat — Click any previous chat to continue where you left off.
- Switch agents — Change which agent you’re talking to within a conversation.
- Share a chat — Team members in the same workspace can view and join active chats.
