Summon Agent from anywhere

The default Agent shortcut is Command and slash on macOS and Alt and slash on Windows. Change the shortcut in Agent settings when another combination fits your workflow better.

Opening the Agent composer does not pull focus away from the application you are using. Type the request, send it, and keep the current application active.

Pause Agent or stop the current task

Pause Agent
Pause Agent when you do not want it to start or continue work.
Stop
Stop the request currently in progress while keeping the conversation and completed work available.
Continue
Send a follow-up in the same conversation when you are ready to resume or change the task.

Close the window or quit LowLighter

Closing the Agent overlay or main dashboard does not quit LowLighter. Agent and its open browser can remain available while you work in another application.

Open LowLighter again from the Windows system tray or macOS menu bar. Choose Quit LowLighter when you want Agent and the other running LowLighter features to stop.
