Keep the Assistant at your side across Venue.sh

· 2 min read

This release brings the Assistant into a persistent sidebar across the Venue.sh dashboard, so you can ask questions, add context from the page you're viewing, and continue conversations without leaving your workflow. It also improves the reliability of repository ingestion for larger codebases.

Ask without leaving your workflow

The Assistant is now available from a right-side sidebar throughout Venue.sh. Open it while you browse your catalog, review TechDocs, launch a template, or work in another supported area of the dashboard.

  • Start anywhere - Begin a new chat or return to your current conversation without navigating to the full Assistant page.
  • Add page context - On a supported page, choose Add current page to context to help the Assistant understand what you're viewing.
  • Continue past conversations - Search your chat history, resume a conversation, pin important chats, or delete conversations you no longer need.
  • Stay in control - Choose an AI model and thinking effort, enable web search when available, or stop a response while it is being generated.
  • Switch to the full experience - Open a sidebar conversation on the full Assistant page when you want more room.

For example, add the current page to context and ask:

  • "Summarize this catalog entity"
  • "What inputs do I need before running this template?"
  • "What repositories need attention here?"

More reliable repository ingestion

Repository ingestion now handles longer jobs and larger file sets more reliably. Venue.sh releases resources as files are processed and keeps the application responsive while it prepares repository content for Assistant search and summaries.

  • Fewer interruptions - Large repository ingestions are less likely to stop because of resource pressure.
  • No workflow changes - Your existing ingestion, search, and summary workflows continue to work as before.
