Pursue one goal across turns

Goal runs one objective across multiple agent turns. Instead of steering each step, you describe the outcome you want. The agent keeps working toward it and stops when it finishes or gets blocked, or when you pause it.

How it surfaces

Goal is a panel in the side panel, beside a chat. It appears once a goal is active, or when you open it to create one.

To start a goal, ask in a chat, select + in the composer and then Provide a goal, or type /goal. To start right away, type /goal followed by the objective. Goal is always on and doesn't appear in Settings → Extensions.

How to use it

1

Describe the objective

Enter the outcome to work toward. Describe a result rather than a single step.

2

Start the goal

Select Start goal. The Goal panel shows its Status, Goal tokens, and Elapsed time, and the chat marks progress after each turn. Goal tokens count completed assistant turns, not money. For what that costs, see Usage.

While a goal runs, you can edit the Objective and select Update goal, Pause it and Resume it later, or Clear goal to end it. You can also Resume a blocked goal.

A goal reports one of these states:

Status	Meaning
Active	Working toward the objective
Blocked	Can't proceed without input or a change
Paused	Stopped by you, or by an app restart
Complete	Objective met
