AI Flow — Settings, Shortcuts and Support¶
Settings¶
Open Settings → Tools → AI Flow. The page is split by topic.
Agent
- Default agent — which engine (Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot) a newly created flow starts with (see Overview).
- Default effort — shown as a slider from Faster to Smarter, with a short explainer behind the "?" icon next to it. Each notch maps to one reasoning level (Low, Medium, High, Very high, Maximum); an agent that doesn't support a given level simply won't offer it. It follows whichever agent is picked as the default above.
📷 Screenshot — the Settings page, Agent tab, showing the effort slider.
- One tab per engine — Claude Code, Codex and GitHub Copilot each keep their own agent context (the configuration directory that engine reads its own settings, sub-agents and MCP servers from), default model, and default permission mode. Changing one engine's tab never affects another's — pick Claude Code as the default agent above, tune Codex's own model in its tab, and both stay exactly as set.

Flows
- Default way of working, parallel flows (how many rows the board can hold at once), keep finished issues (how long a Done card stays visible before it's cleared from the board — from 30 minutes up to 7 days; the issue itself is untouched in the tracker).
- Automatic progress (nudge the issue's completion percentage forward as the flow works through it), local task (allow inventing a card with no issue behind it — see Board), sound alert (let the IDE's own notification sound and badge settings apply to AI Flow's events, described in Notifications).
About
- Copyright and a link to the project's issue tracker for bug reports and feature requests.
Keyboard shortcuts and the action palette¶
AI Flow registers these actions, all reachable from Tools → AI Flow, the keymap settings, and the action palette (⇧⇧ / Search Everywhere):
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| New flow | Adds a flow to the board. |
| Rename Flow | Renames the selected flow (also: double-click its tab, or press F2). |
| Start or Pause Flow | Starts the selected flow, or pauses it. |
| Close Flow | Closes the selected flow. |
| Toggle Console/Conversation Display | Shows or hides the conversation transcript (see [[en/console |
| Start/Pause Flow… | A submenu listing every open flow by name, to start or pause one without switching tabs first — handy for keyboard-driven and action-palette use. |
| Help & Support | Opens the AI Flow project page for issues and support. |
