Search the project,or only what an agent changed.

Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + F searches every file, with match case, whole word and regular expressions. One chip narrows it to the files an agent thread edited, and Ask Dex about these hands the list to Dex with the editor attached.

  • Changed files and Open tabs narrow it the same way.
  • Find and replace shows every change before it is made.
  • F4 steps through the matches without leaving the file.

Monaco, besidethe work it belongs to.

The editor behind VS Code, with a file tree and tabs, on the same canvas as the terminal running the build and the agent changing the code. A single click previews a file, a double click pins it, and each save tidies the file as it lands.

  • Unsaved tabs show a dot.
  • Format on save is on by default; Settings, Editor turns it off.
  • Cmd/Ctrl + P opens a file by name.

Markdown, readthe way GitHub shows it.

A README opens as a page: tables, colored code with a Copy button, alerts, mermaid diagrams and the images beside the file, with an outline that follows you. Source, Split and Preview are one click apart, and Cmd/Ctrl + E flips between the page and its source.

  • A link to another file opens it as a tab, on the right heading.
  • Cmd/Ctrl + F finds words in the page.
  • Scripts and styles in the file never run.
README.md open as a rendered page with an On this page outline, a shell code block and a table of scriptsREADME.md open as a rendered page with an On this page outline, a shell code block and a table of scripts

Pictures, video and PDFsopen in a tab.

An image fits the panel over a checkerboard, video and audio play with the usual controls, and PDF and Word files get their own viewer. When an agent rewrites a screenshot in your workspace, the tab shows the new one.

  • Actual size shows an image pixel for pixel.
  • An SVG opens as the picture, with Source one click away.
  • Files stream from disk, so a long recording seeks without loading whole.

What opens in the editor

It detects what a file is and shows it the useful way.

Code
Monaco, with tabs, a file tree and format on save.
Markdown
A rendered page, the source, or both side by side.
Pictures and media
Images, video, audio and SVG, previewed in the tab.
Documents
PDF and Word files, in their own viewer.
Everything else
Archives, fonts and databases say what they are instead of showing noise.

Every file, readable where the work is.

Read the code an agent wrote, the README it updated and the screenshot it took, in the same place you review and commit them.

  • Searches only Deska can run

    Limit a project search to what git says changed, to the files an agent thread edited, or to the tabs you have open.

  • Results Dex can act on

    Ask Dex about these opens Dex with the result list written out and the editor attached, so you only add what you want done.

  • Previews that follow the disk

    A screenshot in your workspace shows its new version when an agent rewrites it, because previews reload when the file changes.
