File Browser

The file browser provides read and write access to project workspace files from the Command Center.

Browsing Files#

The Files tab in the left sidebar shows a tree view of the project workspace. Navigate directories and click files to view their contents in the right panel with syntax highlighting.

Filtering and Searching Files#

Filter by filename#

The file tree toolbar includes a Filter files… input. As you type, the tree hides entries whose name does not contain the filter string (case-insensitive). This is a local, client-side filter — it does not search file content.

Search by content#

Press Ctrl+Shift+F (or use the command palette) to open the content-search panel. Enter a search term and press Enter (or click the search button) to find all lines across workspace files that contain the query string. Results show the file path, matching line number, and a preview of the matched line. Click any result to open the file at that line in the editor. The search is case-sensitive and scans text files only; binary files, files larger than 1 MB, and directories such as .git, node_modules, __pycache__, .venv, dist, and build are excluded.

Editor Toolbar#

When a file is open and editable, a toolbar appears above the editor with the following controls:

ControlDefaultDescription
Undo / RedoStep through edit history (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Shift+Z)
Auto-save (timer icon)OffWhen enabled, saves changes automatically after a short pause; click to toggle
Markdown preview (eye icon)OffVisible only for .md files; renders the file side-by-side with the source
Word wrapOffToggles soft line wrapping in the editor
Font size (− / +)14 pxAdjusts the editor font size (10–24 px)

Editor settings (auto-save, word wrap, font size, markdown preview) persist across sessions via local storage.

Real-Time Updates#

File operations performed from this browser window (create, rename, delete, move, upload) update the tree immediately. Changes made by agent tasks or terminal commands are not automatically reflected — click the Refresh button (↻) in the file tree toolbar to reload the directory listing from the server.

Troubleshooting#

SymptomLikely causeResolution
File tree does not show files created by an agent taskTree cache is staleClick the ↻ Refresh button in the tree toolbar
Upload rejected with an errorFile exceeds 10 MB or has a blocked extension (.exe, .dll, .ps1, etc.)Reduce file size or rename to an allowed extension
File content is read-onlyYour role has EXECUTION_VIEW permission but not PROJECT_SETTINGSContact your workspace administrator to adjust your permissions
Search returns no resultsQuery is case-sensitive; binary or large files are skippedTry a different case or use the tree filter to locate the file by name
Edit save fails with "Content too large"File exceeds the 1 MB inline-editor limitUse the terminal to edit large files directly
