Workspaces

Understand how workspaces work in Jean2.

Everything in Jean2 is bound to a workspace. Each session lives inside a workspace, which sets the boundaries for your agent. What files it can see, where it can run commands.

Virtual Workspace

By default, Jean2 gives you a Virtual Workspace. This is a server-side sandbox where your agent can read, write, and run code. No folder on your machine is exposed until you add one.

Terminal

The terminal is tied to your workspace and always opens at the workspace root. It runs on the server side, not in your client. This means you can start a process on one device and check on it from another.
