Giving the Agent Context
Pointing the Agent at What Matters
The more relevant context the agent has, the better it can help. Revise gives you several ways to show the agent exactly what you're talking about.
Selecting Text
Select a passage in your document and it's automatically attached to your next message as context. This is the fastest way to say "work on this" - highlight a paragraph and ask the agent to rewrite, shorten, or expand it, and it knows precisely what you mean.
Your Other Documents
The agent can also search across the other documents in your account, not just the one you're editing. Mention a document by name or ask it to find related notes, and the agent will look through your files - including specific folders - and read the relevant ones for context. That makes it easy to reference earlier writing without copying anything in by hand.
Attaching Files
Use the attach button in the chat box (or drag a file onto the panel) to give the agent reference material. Supported files include:
- PDFs - the agent reads the pages directly, including layout and tables.
- Images - PNG, JPG, GIF, and WebP.
- Documents - Word (.docx), Markdown (.md), and plain text (.txt).
Attachments appear as chips above the message box, and you can remove any of them before sending.
Pasting Reference Material
Paste a large chunk of text into the chat box and Revise turns it into a tidy attachment instead of cluttering your message. Great for dropping in notes, an article, or data you want the agent to work from.
