fabriqa is organized around a workspace shell with a sidebar, a main tab area, dockable panels, and a shared input area.

​
Workspace shell

You usually move through the app in this order:
  • choose a workspace
  • open or switch chats
  • inspect files, diffs, and output in panels
  • adjust provider settings from the chat input toolbar or the settings areas
The sidebar is where you usually:
  • see and switch chats
  • create new chats
  • jump back to the workspace list
  • open Workspace Settings
  • open Settings
The main area can hold tabs for chats, settings, Reader, Usage, and other panels that open as tabs.

​
Start and manage chats

  • Use New Chat when you want to continue in the main workspace session.
  • Use New Chat in Worktree when you want isolated branch and folder state.
  • Rename chats clearly when you run multiple lines of work in the same workspace.
  • Close tabs when they are done, but keep distinct tasks in separate chats instead of stacking everything into one long thread.

​
Chat input and provider picker

The chat input is more than a text box. It is where you:
  • choose a provider
  • switch models or agent controls when available
  • send prompts
  • queue follow-up prompts while a reply is still running
  • see usage and context status
If you reuse the same setup often, save it as a preset so you can switch faster inside the toolbar instead of rebuilding the same combination every time.

​
Dockable panels

The workspace panels around the chat do the practical review work:
  • Reader for file previews
  • Terminal for commands and logs
  • Git Changes for diffs and file state
  • Timeline for step-by-step activity
  • Usage for token, cost, and context details
Go to Workspace tools for the deeper workflow.
