# Your Workspace

> A persistent computer that never resets

Your workspace is a real Linux computer with 100GB of storage. Files, databases,
and projects survive across sessions. It's not a sandbox that resets — it's your
agent's permanent home.

## What's in a workspace

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Files & folders" icon="folder-open">
    Browse, upload, and download files through the built-in Computer tab. Code gets
    syntax highlighting, notebooks render beautifully, and images preview inline.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Multiple projects" icon="layer-group">
    One workspace can hold many projects. Build a dashboard, a landing page, and
    an internal tool — all in the same place.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Connections" icon="plug">
    Each workspace has its own set of integrations — databases, SaaS tools, and APIs
    that the agent can use in any project.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Chat history" icon="clock-rotate-left">
    Every conversation is saved and resumable. Come back to any thread and pick up
    where you left off.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## The Computer tab

The Computer tab is your file browser. From here you can:

* Browse your workspace filesystem
* Preview source code with syntax highlighting
* View rendered notebooks, charts, and data tables
* Preview images and markdown files
* Upload and download files

## Multiple chats, one computer

This is the key difference between camelAI and other AI coding tools. camelAI is
**computer-based, not project-based.** Your workspace is the container — chats
are just conversations about what's in it.

* Start a new chat anytime without losing your work
* Work on different projects from different chats
* If a conversation goes sideways, start fresh — your files are still there

<Tip>
  Think of chats as conversations, not containers. You can always start a new chat
  and say "look at the project in /my-app and fix the login page" — the agent will
  find it.

## Workspaces and organizations

See [Organizations and workspaces](/getting-started/organizations) for how workspaces fit into the org structure.

## Idle workspaces

<Accordion title="What happens when the workspace is idle?">
  Your workspace container sleeps after a period of inactivity to save resources.
  When you return, it wakes up automatically — you may notice a brief startup delay.
  Your files are always preserved regardless of container state.
