Panels are the sidebar navigators inside a Task. They help you find and organize chats, artifacts, terminals, files, git changes, sharing, and comments. You can use panels one at a time, stack them together, or rearrange them around the sidebar as the Task changes.
PanelWhat it shows
ChatsChats and terminal agents.
TerminalsPlain shell sessions.
ArtifactsSpecs, tickets, stories, and reviews.
Git DiffChanged files for a selected worktree.
File TreeProject files and folders.
SharingPeople and teams with access to the Task.
CommentsComment threads for the active artifact.
Each panel has a header. Headers can collapse or expand the panel, and panels with creation actions show a + control.

Rearranging Panels

Panels can be reorganized from the sidebar. You can drag a panel to:
  • move it above another panel
  • move it below another panel
  • combine it with another panel group
Combining panels keeps both panels visible in the same sidebar area. This is useful when two views belong together for the work you are doing, such as keeping Chats near Artifacts, or Git Diff near File Tree. When multiple panels are combined, resize handles let you adjust how much vertical space each panel gets.

Drag And Drop Inside Panels

Some panels also support drag and drop for the items they contain. Common uses include:
  • moving artifacts in the artifact hierarchy
  • grouping chats or terminal agents under artifacts
  • keeping related follow-up work near the spec, ticket, story, or review it belongs to
Drag and drop changes organization. It does not turn a chat into an artifact, or a terminal agent into a plain terminal.
