Chat in Dashboard
Talk directly to your Tvix knowledge base without going through an external agent. Chat answers questions using stored memories and wiki context, with source citations.
Chat in Dashboard (also called Chat with Memory) lets you talk to your Tvix knowledge base from Chat. Ask about a past decision, a meeting, or project context — when stored knowledge is relevant, Chat grounds the answer and shows citations.
What Chat Pulls From
Chat uses the same agent tool registry as MCP-connected agents (via /api/v1/agents/chat, with /api/v1/ask/ as a fallback path). That includes:
search_memory/search_wikicapture_memory/create_wiki_note(write-back when appropriate)- Profile, recent, commitments, blockers, briefs, and related tools
See Tvix MCP for the full list.
Highlights
- Context-grounded responses: Answers can use memories and wiki notes when relevant
- Citations: Assistant messages can show a Sources list (title, excerpt, link when available)
- Tool traces: The ReAct-style agent can show which tools it called
- Session history: Past conversations are kept in the sidebar (client-side sessions) so you can continue a thread
- Write back: Chat can capture durable context as memory or create a wiki note when you ask it to save something
Note: Features such as a Standard/Advanced model picker, per-message feedback, Markdown export, and a linked graph panel next to chat are not part of the current Chat UI. Explore connections in the Memories graph view instead.
