Context

In the old Qolaba, the things you'd bring into a conversation — knowledge bases, uploaded files, saved prompts — lived as tabs inside the Chat sidebar. This was practical for a single session, but it had real limitations: you couldn't search or filter your knowledge bases, you couldn't see which files were part of which KB, and your saved prompts were buried in a tab that most users never opened.

All of this has been promoted to its own section in the left rail: Context. Think of it as your personal AI library. It has four tabs — Agents, Knowledge bases, Files, Prompts — each with a full-page view, search, sorting, and filtering. Everything you saved in the old system is here, unchanged.

Knowledge Bases

A knowledge base is a collection of documents, URLs, or files that you want your AI to draw on during a conversation. You attach a KB to any chat, and Qolaba will reference its contents when answering your questions. Previously you could only see KBs as a flat list in a sidebar tab. Now each KB shows its source count, its sync status (Ready / Processing / Error), and when it was last updated.

Before

Old Chat sidebar Knowledge tab showing + Create button, Me filter toggle, German Campaign (0 Files) and Optimization Docs (3 Files) as checkbox items with Delete and Add To Chat buttons at the bottom

KBs as a simple checkbox list inside the chat sidebar. You could attach them to the current chat, but there was no way to manage, search, or see their status without opening each one.

After

New Context → Knowledge bases page showing 3 KB cards: Brand Guidelines (3 sources, Ready), Graphic assets (5 sources, Ready), Optimization docs (3 sources, Ready). Plus New knowledge base card on left. Search and filter controls at top right.

KBs now have a dedicated page with card layout. Each card shows source count and a colour-coded status badge. You can search, filter by status (Ready / Processing), and create new KBs — all without being inside a chat.

Files

Files are the raw uploads that power your knowledge bases or that you drop into individual chats for reference. The old chat sidebar just showed a flat scrollable list of filenames with delete buttons. With 197 files, that list was impossible to navigate.

The new Files view is a proper data table: filename, which KB it belongs to (if any), file size, and when it was added. You can sort by any column, filter by file type or KB membership, and upload new files from the same page.

Before

Old Chat sidebar Files tab showing a flat scrollable list of filenames (credit optimization.p..., Credit Insights Finalized..., Tool Credits Reference-20... etc.) with trash/delete icons on the right

A plain scrollable list. No sorting, no filtering, no way to see file sizes or which KB they belonged to. Finding a specific file meant scrolling.

After

New Context → Files page showing a sortable table with columns: Name (with file type icon), In Knowledge Base, Size, Added. 197 files listed. Sort controls for Newest, Type, Knowledge base at top right. Upload files button at top right.

A full data table with sortable columns. The In Knowledge Base column immediately shows which files are organised into KBs and which are loose uploads — critical for managing a large library.

Saved Prompts

Saved prompts are reusable templates — crafted instructions that you want to use across multiple conversations without retyping them. Examples: a system prompt that defines a persona, a structured research framework, a creative writing brief. In the old UI they were cards in a chat sidebar tab, with copy/fork/edit/delete actions.

In the new Context, prompts have their own tab with a cleaner card grid. Each card has a Use in chat button (opens a new chat with the prompt pre-filled) and Copy. The management actions (edit, delete) are behind the ··· menu to keep the cards uncluttered.

Before

Old Chat sidebar Prompts tab showing + New Prompt button, and five saved prompt cards with title, preview text, and icon row showing copy/fork/edit/delete actions

Prompts were accessible but only from inside a chat session. Adding, editing, or organising them was awkward because you had to have a chat open first.

After

New Context → Prompts tab showing 5 prompt cards in a grid layout, each with title (What is paper trading, What is trading psychology, etc.), preview text, Use in chat arrow button, and Copy button

Prompts are now managed independently of any chat. The Use in chat → button is the main action — tap it and a new conversation opens with the prompt pre-loaded. You can manage your prompt library at any time, even between sessions.

Agents (new in Context)

Context also introduces a new Agents tab — a dedicated space to browse pre-built agents and manage the custom agents you've created. This didn't exist as a standalone page before; agents could only be accessed from inside the Chat interface. Now you can plan, edit, and organise your agents independently.

New Context → Agents tab showing a grid of agent cards including pre-built agents (General Assistant, Copywriter, Code Helper) and user-created custom agents with edit and share options

Context → Agents is a new addition. Browse the full catalogue of pre-built agents, see your custom agents, edit their system prompts, adjust their toolkit access, and manage sharing permissions — all from one page.
