File Browser

Tools Menu

The tool panels that ride alongside your files — Agent, Chats, Outline, Details, Activity, and Waterfall.

The tools menu opens Poly's side panels — focused tools that work alongside whatever you're browsing. Each panel has its own page in this section:

  • Agent (⌘ /) — chat with the AI agent that can read, search, and act on your files
  • Chats (⌘ ?) — browse and search your past agent conversations
  • Outline — navigate a long agent response by its table of contents
  • Details (⌘ I) — view and edit a file's metadata, tags, notes, and rating, and check its intelligence pipeline status
  • Activity — review file history, leave comments, and restore or revert past versions
  • Waterfall — browse large numbers of files as a compact thumbnail grid
  • Flashback — scrub through your folder or file's history on a live timeline

Opening a panel

Open panels from the tools menu in the toolbar, or with their keyboard shortcuts. One panel is visible at a time — opening another swaps it in place, and the same shortcut toggles a panel closed again. Poly remembers which panel you had open.

Panels are contextual: select a file and Details or Activity reflect that file; open the Agent and it's aware of your current selection and folder.
