# Brimble Agent

> The in-dashboard assistant that can launch projects, read logs, and act on your workspace.

**Brimble Agent** is the chat assistant inside the [Brimble dashboard](https://app.brimble.io). You stay signed in as yourself. It can launch a project, watch that launch, read logs, change dashboard resources, and open a pull request when a code fix is required.

It uses the workspace and environment you already have open. If you are on a project page, that project is already in context. You do not need to paste IDs.

## Where to open it

* **Agent** in the sidebar opens the full page (`/ai`).
* The Agent button in the top bar opens a slide-over panel, unless you are already on `/ai`.

You can start a new chat or reopen a recent one. History is searchable. You can delete a chat when you are done with it.

## What it is for

On first use, the dashboard lists four jobs:

* **Launch until it's live.** Ask it to put a project online. It watches the launch, then tells you if it went live or what went wrong.
* **Finds what broke.** If a site is down or a launch failed, it reads the logs. You do not need to paste them.
* **Works in the dashboard for you.** It can add a domain, check usage, list projects, and more, instead of only pointing at screens.
* **Fixes and tests code when that's needed.** For a real build or runtime error it can run a private copy of the project, change a file, and open a pull request. It will not offer that unless it needs to.

See [What it can do](/agent/what-it-can-do) for the main workflows.

## Agent, MCP, and sandbox coding agents

These are three different products.

| Product                                                          | Where you use it                  | What it is                                                                                             |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Brimble Agent**                                                | Dashboard chat                    | Signed-in assistant for the current workspace                                                          |
| **[Brimble MCP](/mcp/overview)**                                 | Claude, Cursor, or another client | Official MCP server at `https://mcp.brimble.io`, authenticated with your [API key](/security/api-keys) |
| **[Sandbox coding agents](/sandboxes/cookbook/ai-coding-agent)** | A sandbox you provision           | Templates such as Claude Code or Codex running inside that sandbox                                     |

Use Agent when you are already in the dashboard. Use Brimble MCP when you want an external client to manage the account. Use a sandbox coding agent when you want a CLI coding tool on isolated compute.
