The current AI Agent panel

The current AI Agent panel occupies the left sidebar, which is the same space used for page and layer navigation. This makes it impossible to browse pages, select layers, or inspect the layer tree while simultaneously working with the agent — you have to choose one or the other.

Suggested improvement: Move the AI Agent to a floating button in the bottom-right corner (near or replacing the Help button), similar to a chat widget pattern. Clicking it would open a compact overlay or side panel that doesn't replace the main navigation sidebar.

Benefits:

  • Users can navigate pages and layers freely while the agent conversation stays open
  • The canvas and layer panel remain fully accessible during agent interactions
  • Familiar UX pattern — low learning curve
  • Enables real-time feedback loop: select a layer → ask agent → see result → navigate → repeat, all without switching modes

Current workaround: None — you have to close the agent panel to navigate, then reopen it, losing context of what's on screen.

This would significantly improve the workflow for tasks that involve browsing across multiple pages or frames while iterating with the agent.

 

P.S.

I'm a Product & UX/UI Designer myself, so this feedback comes from daily hands-on use rather than theoretical observation. If perspectives like this are useful to your team — whether for research, beta testing, or design collaboration — I'd love to be involved. Always open to a conversation.
