Tasks

Tasks are where you do your work in Multiply. Start one directly from the home prompt box or from a Project.

What is a Task?

A Task is where you do your work in Multiply. Tasks live either privately on their own, or inside a Project. Each task gives you a focused space to run research, generate content, and iterate with your agents.

The Chat view

When you open a task, you land in the Chat view. Type what you need at the bottom of the screen, and Multiply will interpret your request and delegate it to the right agents. Results appear as a running conversation.

Questions before starting

Before building a plan, Multiply may ask you a few questions to better understand your task. This happens when your request is open enough that the output could go in several directions. Answer the questions, and Multiply will proceed with a clearer brief.

Plan mode

For more complex tasks, Multiply will first present a plan for your review. Confirm to start, or reject to refine what you're asking for. Multiply then delegates the work to your agents, which they can do both in parallel and sequentially.

Agents

Multiply will delegate the work to relevant agents, which you can confirm in the block header. You do not have to know which agent to call on, but you can use @agent in your prompt to let Multiply know you want to call on a specific agent.
​

Blocks

When an agent produces output, blocks appear on the right side of the screen alongside the chat. Each block contains a specific piece of work or sub-task, a research report, a brief, a strategy, an email draft, or whatever you're working on. You can fold and unfold individual blocks, see the sources behind the agent's output, and export the output from the header above them.

You can keep chatting with the assistant while your blocks are visible, or close the blocks to return to a full-screen chat view. Click the X in the blocks header to do that.

Intelligence Sidebar

Click the sidebar icon to open the Intelligence Sidebar alongside your task. It surfaces context and intelligence relevant to your current work. Click again to close it. You can also see your files there.
