How to use the chat panel

Press Chat on any step to ask about it. The chat knows the current step and your project folder, and offers one-tap questions: what does this step do, explain the result, what should I check, and what comes next.

Use the chat when a score, a file or a result is unclear. It is for understanding, not for skipping your own review.

Steps

  1. 1

    Open the chat

    Press Chat at the bottom of the screen. A panel opens on the right, titled with the current step.

  2. 2

    Start with a quick question

    Tap What does this step do, Explain the result, What should I check, or What comes next.

  3. 3

    Ask your own question

    Type in the Ask about this step box and press Send.

  4. 4

    Close it when done

    Press Close. The run continues in the background whether the chat is open or not.

Tips

Ask What should I check before you approve the project spec

Ask the chat to explain a score you disagree with, then decide for yourself

Common mistakes

  • Treating the chat's explanation as a verified result
  • Asking about a different project than the one open

Questions

Does the chat see my files?

It can see the project folder of the project you are in.

Does chatting use credits?

No. Chatting uses no credits, but it does use your Claude plan.

Is it a different tool from the workflow?

No. It runs in the same Claude session as the rest of the project. Chat is separate for each step.

Still stuck? Ask in the tool's chat panel, or email courses@skilldux.com.
