The desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux is where most work in Nuphos happens. Download it from nuphos.ai/download. This page covers what it adds around the chat with your agent.

The workspace

Each chat sits in a pane. Split the window with ⌘D (side by side) or ⌘⇧D (top and bottom), and drag a chat from the sidebar onto a pane’s edge to open it there. ⌘J toggles the workspace panel, also called the dock, which holds the chat’s browser tabs, its desktop, artifacts and other tools. ⌘K opens workspace search, including agents and people. Shortcut labels shown here use macOS notation; use the shortcut shown in your app on other platforms.

Browser

Open web pages in a Browser tab next to the chat, with its own history, instead of switching windows. When the agent needs a website or a sign-in page, it opens it in that chat’s dock with local_browser, so you watch the page it drives and type any password yourself.
  • Each chat’s agent sees only its own tabs. Tabs you open by hand are not visible to agents. Sign-ins are shared across tabs.
  • Network recording. The agent can record a tab’s network traffic as a HAR file to debug a page. The file stays on your computer, readable only by your user, and is deleted after a day. It holds live cookies, so treat it as a secret.
  • Open links in Nuphos (macOS). Nuphos appears in macOS’s default web browser list. If you choose it, web links open in a workspace tab.

Remote desktops

Every cloud computer has its own desktop. Open it from a chat’s dock to watch the agent work. You can also watch and control a desktop from the iOS app, including your Mac’s own screen while Nuphos is open on it. Only you can open it, from a phone signed in to the same Nuphos account. It needs no Mac password. macOS asks once for Screen Recording and Accessibility access, and the Mac shows a notice while your phone has control.

Inbox

The Inbox collects everything waiting on you: questions and decisions your agents are waiting on, and teammates’ requests to use your shared computer. Open an entry to answer its question cards without reading the whole transcript, or choose Open agent conversation to go to the chat. Inside a chat, ⌘I opens the summary panel. Its Needs your input list shows the open questions of the chat and its sub-agents.

Artifacts, dashboards and designs

  • Artifacts. An agent can show a document, a single-page HTML app, an SVG diagram or a code file as an artifact instead of pasting its source. It opens in the dock with its versions, a preview and the code, and can be copied, downloaded, or shared with a teammate as a link.
  • Dashboards. A team’s Dashboards page holds panels the agent builds from your connected accounts. Each panel’s menu has Ask agent, which starts a chat about that panel.
  • Designs. A team’s Designs page is a canvas of live HTML screens for desktop, tablet or phone. Ask the agent to “design a booking flow” and it builds the screens while the canvas is open. Press Play to click through the flow. Edits from you, teammates and the agent appear within seconds.

Updates

The app updates itself. Settings → Updates shows the update status and download progress, with a button to restart into the new version.

Language

Choose the app’s language under Settings → Appearance → Language: English, Traditional Chinese (Taiwan), Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Indonesian or Spanish. Without a choice, the app follows your system language if it is one of these, and otherwise uses English. Messages to and from the agent are not translated.

Terminals and session moves

Open a local terminal in the dock for a development server or interactive shell you and the agent can both use. Closing its tab ends the shell. For short commands with an exit status, use local command execution. A conversation’s runtime picker moves future work to a different computer or provider. Read its confirmation and prepare files on the destination. The transcript, browser sign-ins and computer disk are different kinds of state; do not assume a move synchronizes all three. See Agents.
