# Air Teams editor

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/air/llms.txt).

> **Note:**
> If you're an Air app user, we recommend using [Air in IDEs](air-in-ides-overview.html) instead. It's the main way to run agents on your local projects in JetBrains Air, and you can use it to run tasks in the cloud as well – see [Run a task from Air in IDEs](run-tasks-in-cloud.html#run_cloud_tasks_from_ide).

The Air Teams editor is a lightweight code editor that opens in the browser when you open a cloud task in Air Teams. It puts the task's chat next to the code and a set of tools, all connected to the task's cloud environment, so you can follow the agent, review and adjust its changes, and run commands without installing anything.

You can browse, edit, search, and compare code, comment on it, and run Git operations. There's no code analysis: no quick-fixes, no refactorings, and no navigation to declarations or usages. When you need those, check out the task branch in your IDE.

## What you can do in the editor

* Steer the agent while it works – [queue prompts](prompt-queue.html), [add context](task-context.html) from the code, the terminal, or your machine, and [switch the model](select-agents-and-models.html#change-model-existing-task) or the [permission mode](permission-modes.html).

* Review the agent's changes – read the diff, comment on it, and send the agent back with feedback. See [Review changes](review-changes.html).

* Explore and edit code – browse and manage files, jump to files, actions, and tools, and edit code yourself. See [Explore code](explore-projects.html).

* Search and replace – find text in a file or across the project and replace it in many files at once. See [Search and replace](search-and-replace.html).

* Work with Git – [commit and push](git-commit-and-push-changes.html) your own edits, [sync with the remote](git-sync-with-a-remote-repository.html), [branch from a commit](git-manage-branches.html), [undo changes](git-undo-changes.html), and [browse the history](git-browse-history.html). See [Git](git.html).

* Run commands – build and test the project in the task's cloud environment. See [Terminal](terminal-emulator.html).

* Finish the task – when the task branch is what you want, [create a pull request](create-a-pull-request.html) from it.

For what each tool on the tool bar does, see [Tools](tools.html).

## Open a task in the editor

Open [https://air.jetbrains.cloud](https://air.jetbrains.cloud) and click a task in the task list. Every task has its own editor, so switching tasks in the list switches the editor too. A task you [continue from an automation
run](automation-run-results.html#continue_in_new_task) opens the same way.

The New Task page isn't the editor yet: the cloud environment doesn't exist until the task starts. See [Define a task](define-tasks.html).

## Change the layout

Use the three buttons in the top-right corner to show or hide Chat, Editor, and Tools, in any combination. Keep only the chat while the agent works, and bring in the editor and a tool when you review.

* Chat – the conversation with the agent and the task input, with the model and permission mode selectors. See [Run a task](run-tasks-in-cloud.html).

* Editor – the open files and diffs, in tabs. See [Explore code](explore-projects.html) and [Review changes](review-changes.html).

* Tools – Files, Search, Changes, Comments, History, and Terminal. Pick one on the tool bar along the right edge. See [Tools](tools.html).

The search icon at the bottom of the tool bar opens [Go to
All](explore-projects.html#goto-all), and the bell shows notifications about the status of your tasks.
