The default is `Ctrl+Shift+K` (Windows, Linux) or `Cmd+Shift+K` (macOS), which keeps `Ctrl/Cmd+K` free for TYPO3 Live Search. * The bar above the button shows the current workspace, for example **Workspace: LIVE**. Applied changes are saved in that workspace. In Live, the **Workspace** selected in **AI Foundation > MCP** can send them to a draft workspace instead; see [Live or draft workspace](https://docs.t3planet.de/en/latest/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/HowItWorks/Index.md#live-or-draft-workspace). ## Open the AI agent in three steps 1. Select the page you want to work on in the page tree, for example in **Content > Layout**. 2. Click **Ask AI Agent**, or press `Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+K`. 3. The AI agent window opens on top of the page. Check that the context line shows the right page, then type your request. Opening the agent on a page continues the latest conversation for that page. Press `Esc` or click **Close** to close the window. Your work in the backend stays open behind it. ![Empty AI agent window with Start a conversation, four suggestions, and the message field](https://mintcdn.com/t3planet/O7ph795gSp6qACKc/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/images/t3ai-agent-window-empty.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=O7ph795gSp6qACKc\&q=85\&s=0f6cc6aa0c0e8abbb0ecd997f6741b82) A new conversation starts with **Start a conversation** and suggestions for the current screen. In the Layout module, three of the four suggestions run T3AI features: **Generate SEO for this page**, **Translate this page**, and **Add a content element to this page**. ## The window, part by part ![AI agent window with the conversation list button, context line, request, step, answer, suggestions, message field, attach button, and AI model marked 1 to 9](https://mintcdn.com/t3planet/O7ph795gSp6qACKc/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/images/t3ai-agent-window-parts.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=O7ph795gSp6qACKc\&q=85\&s=3fe6b8958afb6601e74c4fa95016b0b8) The screenshot shows a T3AI request (*Show the Mass Translation queue*) after it ran. 1. **Conversations**: opens the list of earlier conversations. See [Conversations](#conversations). 2. **Context line**: the module, language, brand, workspace, and page the agent works on. *This page* in your request always means this page. 3. **Your request**, shown on the right. 4. **Step**: each tool the agent runs, here the T3AI tool **Show the translation queue**. Click a step to see the tool name and its details. 5. **Answer** from the agent. 6. **What I can do**: suggested next requests for this screen. Click one to send it. 7. **Message field**: type your request and press Enter. 8. **Attach (+)**: add files to the request. 9. **AI model**: the provider that answers, for example **Default: mistral**. Choose it before the first message. After the first answer, it is fixed for the conversation. ### Header icons ![AI agent header with Show conversations, New conversation, Full screen, How the AI Agent works, Settings, and Close marked 1 to 6](https://mintcdn.com/t3planet/O7ph795gSp6qACKc/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/images/t3ai-agent-header.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=O7ph795gSp6qACKc\&q=85\&s=b0de627a2bf6593596cd9ba948e57f0c) 1. **Show conversations**: opens or hides the conversation list. 2. **New conversation**: starts an empty conversation on the current page. 3. **Full screen**: enlarges the window. 4. **How the AI Agent works**: a short built-in guide with your current context (module, page, language, workspace) and the active AI model. 5. **Settings**: opens **AI Foundation > AI Agent**. 6. **Close**: closes the window. In longer conversations, a **Summarize conversation** icon appears in the header as well. ## Pick a T3AI action with `/` Type `/` in the message field to open the action picker. It lists **On this module** actions first, then **All actions**. Each entry shows its owner (**T3AI** or **AI Foundation**) and what it does: **Only reads**, **Asks before changing**, or **Asks before deleting**. Keep typing to filter, for example `/seo` or `/translat`. ![Action picker opened with /seo, listing T3AI actions such as Write all SEO texts, Add pages to the SEO queue, and Show the SEO queue](https://mintcdn.com/t3planet/O7ph795gSp6qACKc/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/images/t3ai-agent-slash-menu.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=O7ph795gSp6qACKc\&q=85\&s=665419baec6decca3bb057b63b0a08c7) * Type `@` to point at a page or content element, for example `@pages:12`. * Use **+** to attach files. You do not have to use `/`. Plain language works too. The agent picks the T3AI tool from your request. ## Conversations ![Conversation list with This page and All pages tabs, a filter, and earlier T3AI conversations](https://mintcdn.com/t3planet/O7ph795gSp6qACKc/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/images/t3ai-agent-conversations.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=O7ph795gSp6qACKc\&q=85\&s=ef20ea67fb7cb7d5ad3347979d758b34) * **This page** lists the conversations about the current page. **All pages** lists all of your conversations. * Use **Filter by title** to find a conversation, and **+** to start a new one. * Use **Rename** or **Delete** on a conversation to manage the list. * Each page has its own conversations. Conversations without activity are deleted after 90 days. ## Where administrators manage the agent | What | Where | | - | - | | Status, tool counters, keyboard shortcut | **AI Foundation > AI Agent > Overview** | | Which T3AI tools only read, ask before changing, or ask before deleting | **AI Foundation > AI Agent > Severity policy** | | Credit caps, daily limits, providers, PII masking per user group | [AI Permissions](https://docs.t3planet.de/en/latest/en/latest/ExtNsT3AF/Configuration/AIPermissions/Index.md) | | Full list of T3AI tools and the downloadable AI Skill (`/t3ai`) | **AI Foundation > MCP > MCP Tools > AI Assistant** | | AI providers and models | [AI Providers](https://docs.t3planet.de/en/latest/en/latest/ExtNsT3AF/Configuration/AIProviders/Index.md) | Next: [How it works](https://docs.t3planet.de/en/latest/en/latest/ExtNsT3AI/AskAiAgent/HowItWorks/Index.md) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
