Every place in the app, in sidebar order, then **Settings**. The last section explains why you may
not see every row.

## Sidebar

| Row                                                 | What it is for                                                                                                                                                            |
| --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Search**                                          | Opens the command palette to jump to any page, project or setting.                                                                                                        |
| **New chat**                                        | The home [chat](/docs/chat): writes, generates, searches the web and [reads social platforms](/docs/chat/social). If chat is off, home opens the **Library**.             |
| **[Library](/docs/concepts/assets-and-visibility)** | Everything you made or uploaded, with filters.                                                                                                                            |
| **[Scheduled](/docs/automate/scheduled-tasks)**     | Prompts that run on a schedule, each with a page of runs.                                                                                                                 |
| **[Skills](/docs/concepts/skills-and-knowledge)**   | Your workflows, the built-in ones, and their switches.                                                                                                                    |
| **[Projects](/docs/concepts/projects)**             | One per client or campaign; attach one to a chat for context.                                                                                                             |
| **Chats**                                           | Your latest chats. **View all** opens the [history](/docs/chat/history).                                                                                                  |
| Footer                                              | Your [credit balance](/docs/concepts/credits-and-spending), the [workspace switcher](/docs/concepts/workspaces-and-members) (one workspace per tab) and the theme switch. |

### Tools

Each tool is turned on per workspace. **Manage tools** on the **Tools** heading reorders or hides
tools in your own sidebar only.

| Tool                                 | What it does                                                                                                       |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **[Canvas](/docs/create/canvas)**    | A board shared live with everyone who opens it.                                                                    |
| **[Transcripts](/docs/transcripts)** | Turns a recording or link into searchable text with speakers and timestamps.                                       |
| **[Image](/docs/create/image)**      | Prompt, model, parameters and credit cost, then generate.                                                          |
| **[Video](/docs/create/video)**      | The same for clips, from text, a still or a clip. Cutting a moment from a recording happens in [chat](/docs/chat). |
| **[Social radar](/docs/radar)**      | Searches recent posts on the web, X and Reddit and delivers the results to a chat.                                 |

The member directory has no sidebar row: open it by selecting someone in a chat mention or in
**Settings → Members**.

## Settings

Everyone sees **Account** and **Workspace**. Editing workspace pages needs permission to manage the
workspace, its members or its roles, and **Billing** is for admins and billing managers only.
**Governance** needs permission to read governance (admins have it); for anyone else it is hidden
and an old link opens **Settings → Account**. See
[roles and permissions](/docs/governance/roles-and-permissions).

## If something is missing or won't run

| Cause                       | What you see                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| The feature is off          | The row is gone and a saved link opens home. Set in **Settings → Governance → Tools** for the workspace, a team or you, within your plan. Turning chat off also turns off scheduled tasks. This is the only cause that removes a row. |
| Your role doesn't allow it  | Settings pages are hidden; tools stay visible. A **Viewer** sees **Image** but is refused on send, because they can't create content.                                                                                                 |
| A spending limit is used up | Nothing changes until you send. A personal or team limit can run out while the workspace still has credits. See [credits and spending](/docs/concepts/credits-and-spending).                                                          |
