Sidebar Navigation

The left sidebar displays:

  • Projects list: Shows all your projects with expandable navigation trees. The count (e.g., "Projects (2)") indicates the total number of projects you have.
  • Top-level sections: Access Chats, Billing, and Settings from any page
  • Log out: Sign out of your account

Each project in the sidebar can be expanded to reveal quick navigation to all project features.

Status Notifications

System-wide alerts appear at the top of the dashboard, such as:

Document ingestion may be slower than usual due to a vendor API degradation.

These banners inform you of service degradations or important announcements.

Processing Status Console

A live console shows recent processing activity across all your projects:

┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Processing Status                      × │
│ ──────────────────────────────────────── │
│ 14:19:29 [Crawl] Manual crawl started... │
└──────────────────────────────────────────┘

This console can be dismissed with the × button. Learn more about interpreting processing logs in Monitoring Processing Status.

All your projects are displayed as cards showing:

  • Project name: Click to open the project overview
  • Status badge: Indicates if the project is "Live" (published and active)
