A tour of the workspace
What every part of the StickyPrompts home screen does: the sidebar, the team switcher, the usage meter, the composer and its controls, and the apps.
When you log in you land on the home screen. The left sidebar takes you to everything you and your team have built. The composer in the middle is where most work starts. Below it are shortcuts to the apps, your most popular prompts and your agents. This page walks through each part so you know where things are before your first chat.
The sidebar
The sidebar is the same on every page, so you can jump anywhere in one click.

|---|---|
| New chat (1) | Starts a fresh conversation. The arrow on the right of the button opens a dropdown. |

Below the main items you’ll find:
- The workspace name. The workspace you are working in.
- TEAM (2). The switcher shows Personal Chats by default. Open it to switch to one of your teams and see that team’s chats instead. The list of recent chats underneath follows your choice. Chats you start while a team is selected are team chats, shared with that team.
- Recent chats. Your latest conversations, newest first. Select one to reopen it.
- The usage meter (3). Credits used this month against your allowance, as a bar and a percentage. Usage in StickyPrompts is measured in credits; see Usage, credits and billing.
- Your user menu. Your name and email at the very bottom. Open it to reach your settings; see Settings overview.
The bell at the top of the sidebar shows your notifications. To hide the sidebar, use the toggle on its right edge.
The composer
The composer is where you write a prompt and decide how it is answered. The controls under the text box, left to right:
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| + | Opens more composer options. |
| Attach (1) | Adds files from your computer to the message. |
| Knowledge base picker (2) | The book icon. Picks one or more knowledge bases for the AI to search and cite. |
| Agent picker | The robot icon, shown inside a chat. Hands the conversation to one of your agents. |
| Snippets | The puzzle icon. Switches on snippets, reusable context about you, your company or a client, several at once. Turns yellow with a count when snippets are on. |
| Style | The response style: Prompty, Chatty or one you created. See Response styles. |
| Reasoning effort (3) | Low, Medium or High. How much a reasoning model thinks before it answers. It shows Medium by default. |
| Model button (4) | Shows the model that will answer. Select it to pick a different model or an auto-select mode. See Choosing a model. |
| Send | Sends the message. |
