The Assistant is a chat panel alongside your editor that can build and change the Space you’re working in. Describe what you want; it proposes a plan, shows you each asset before it’s written, and creates the files once you approve. It runs on the Viorant managed provider and spends credits from the same wallet as everything else.

Where it lives

The Assistant is a collapsible panel on the right-hand side of the Hub. It works on the Space you currently have open — open a Space and it’s ready; without one it has nothing to act on. Everything it does is scoped to that active Space. It won’t read from or write to any other Space.

How a build goes

1

Describe the goal

Say what you want in plain language — “a skill that summarises my unread Slack mentions each morning”. You can also start from the goal box when you create a new Space.
2

Read the plan

The Assistant proposes a plan before it changes anything. It’s shown as steps you can read, and it will ask about anything genuinely under-specified rather than guessing.
3

Approve each piece

Each step arrives as a card showing the actual thing being made — the prompt text, the skill body and the connectors it needs, the model and tier, and how the agent gets wired together. You approve them one at a time, or let it build the rest without asking.
4

Watch the files land

Approved assets appear in the Space’s file tree as they’re created. They’re ordinary files — the same ones you’d have authored by hand. From there you can run and test the agent as you would any other.

Fixing and improving

Once a Space has assets in it, the Assistant can also work on what’s already there — describe what’s wrong or what you want changed and it proposes edits the same way, as reviewable steps.
The AI prompt builder in the prompt editor is still there and unchanged. Use the Assistant when you’re working across a Space — several assets, or wiring them together. Use the prompt builder when you want to generate or improve one prompt in place.

Connectors and models

If a skill needs a connector, the Assistant brings it in from the connectors already available to you, or tells you to add one — it can’t sign you into a service on your behalf. See Connectors for how authorization works. For models it defaults to the Viorant managed provider on the Medium tier, and shows you that choice before wiring it in.

What it costs

Every turn spends credits, including turns that only plan or explain. The tier picker in the panel controls how much — Low is cheaper and usually fine while you’re still shaping the idea. If your balance reaches zero the Assistant stops rather than failing quietly. See Credits.
