Background Commands and the Task Bar
The AI can run commands on your computer — for example converting files or running a script. A command that takes long keeps running in the background, so the chat is not blocked.
When to use it
When the AI runs a long command on your computer and you want to see or stop it.
How to use it
- Background commands appear in the task bar above the input box, with their output.
- Stop this background task ends one.
- When it finishes, the chat shows Background task finished (or failed / stopped) and the AI continues with the result.
You can keep chatting while it runs.
