## Docs

- [Agent context — How stagewise agents understand your project](https://docs.stagewise.io/core-concepts/agent-context.md): Understand how AI coding agents in stagewise build context from WORKSPACE.md, skills, AGENTS.md, @mentions, and DOM context. Learn how to give agents the right information for predictable results.

- [Quickstart — Your first prompt with stagewise](https://docs.stagewise.io/getting-started/quickstart.md): Connect a workspace to the stagewise agentic IDE and send your first AI coding agent prompt. Workspaces, @mentions, slash commands, and diff review in under 5 minutes.
- [stagewise Docs — Open Source Agentic IDE](https://docs.stagewise.io/index.md): stagewise is an open source agentic IDE. AI coding agents read, write, and modify files across your workspaces. Bring your own model, import existing subscriptions, or connect local models.
- [About & updates — Version, releases, and licenses](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/about.md): View the current stagewise version, check production updates, use the self-updating nightly build from GitHub, and browse open-source licenses.
- [Authentication & account — Sign in and manage your stagewise account](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/authentication.md): Sign in to the stagewise agentic IDE with passwordless email authentication. Manage your subscription, monitor usage, and access the stagewise Account model library.
- [BYOK — Import your API subscriptions into stagewise](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/byok-setup.md): Import provider API keys into the stagewise agentic IDE. Use Claude, GPT, Gemini, Kimi, Qwen, DeepSeek, GLM, or MiniMax subscriptions.
- [Clear data — Delete browsing data, cookies, and cache](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/clear-data.md): Clear browsing data in the stagewise browser. Delete history, cookies, cache, local storage, IndexedDB, service workers, and site permissions with granular controls.
- [Command Center — Search agents, tabs, and settings](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/command-center.md): Use Command Center in stagewise to search agents, browser tabs, and settings. Switch context, open settings, pin items, rename agents, and manage tabs from one keyboard-first menu.
- [Custom models — Add models not in the built-in list](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/custom-models.md): Add custom model definitions to the stagewise agentic IDE. Register fine-tuned models, self-hosted LLMs, or models from alternative providers to use with your AI coding agents.
- [Custom providers — Connect local models and any API endpoint](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/custom-providers.md): Connect local models, self-hosted LLMs, and cloud AI platforms to stagewise. Use OpenAI-compatible, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic, Azure, Bedrock, Vertex, or local endpoints.
- [Diff review reference — Accept and reject agent changes](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/diff-review.md): Review, accept, reject, and undo every code change AI coding agents make in the stagewise agentic IDE. Full inline diffs, per-hunk controls, and full edit history.
- [DOM context selector — Select elements for agent context](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/dom-context-selector.md): Select any web element in the stagewise browser and attach it as context for AI coding agents. Click on UI elements to give agents exact HTML, CSS, and positioning information.
- [General agent settings — Editors, wake behavior, and notifications](https://docs.stagewise.io/reference/general-settings.md): Configure general stagewise agent settings. Choose the editor used for opening files, keep the app awake while agents work, and customize notification sounds.
