The AI Agent workspace is a dedicated place to work with an AI assistant on a resume draft. It keeps the conversation, tool activity, and read-only resume preview in one full-screen view.
Agent threads edit an AI draft copy of your resume. Your original resume is not changed when you start from an existing resume.

Before you start

You need at least one AI provider that is tested and enabled in Dashboard -> Settings -> Integrations. For setup, see Using Artificial Intelligence. If you self-host Reactive Resume, the agent workspace also requires the server-side agent configuration described in Self-hosting with Docker.

Open the agent workspace

From the dashboard sidebar, click Agents. The agent page always shows your thread sidebar. Use it to continue an existing thread, or click New thread to start another one. You can also open the agent from the builder dock. When you do this, the current resume is preselected in the new thread setup screen.

Start a new thread

1

Choose an agent model

Pick the provider/model combo the agent should use. This choice is locked once the thread starts.
2

Choose a resume draft

Select an existing resume to duplicate as an AI draft, or choose Create from scratch for a blank draft.
3

Start the thread

Click Start Thread to create the draft and open the workspace.

Use the three-pane workspace

The desktop workspace is split into three panes:
  • Threads on the left: continue, archive, delete, or start agent threads.
  • Chat in the center: send prompts, upload files, answer agent questions, and review tool activity.
  • Resume on the right: read the current AI draft, adjust zoom, open it in the builder, or download a PDF.

On smaller screens, the workspace uses tabs/sheets so you can switch between threads, chat, and preview without losing the active conversation.

Ask for resume changes

The agent works best with concrete instructions:
  • “Tailor this resume to this job description: https://example.com/job
  • “Find weak bullets and rewrite them with stronger outcomes.”
  • “Compare this draft against a product manager role and update the keywords.”
  • “Ask me before changing anything that looks uncertain.”
You can attach files or images from the composer. The agent can read uploaded attachments when they are relevant to your request.
Text input is supported. Voice input is not supported in the agent workspace yet.

Review patches

When the agent edits the resume, the patch is applied immediately to the AI draft. The chat shows a small Patch applied line. Open the line to inspect the raw JSON Patch and use Revert if you want to undo that patch.
AI-generated changes can still be inaccurate. Review the draft in the preview or builder before exporting or sharing it.

Answer agent questions

If the agent needs a decision, it may show a question card with recommended answers. Click the answer you want to send it back to the agent. This is useful when the agent finds ambiguous instructions, missing job context, or a change that depends on your preference.

Use the resume preview

The resume pane is read-only. Use the toolbar to:
  • decrease or increase zoom;
  • set an exact zoom percentage;
  • open the AI draft in the builder;
  • download the draft as a PDF.
Zoom settings are remembered across refreshes.

Manage threads

Threads are ordered by the newest message. Use the thread menu to archive or delete a thread.
  • Archive keeps the conversation but makes the thread read-only.
  • Delete removes the thread conversation and its attachments. The generated resume draft remains in your dashboard.
Threads can also become read-only if the working resume is deleted, the selected provider is deleted, or the thread is archived. If a provider is disabled or no longer tested, re-enable and test it before sending new messages.
