Search, switch between tiles and list, and change the sort
30s · 4 steps
Three controls in the page header: a search box that narrows the list as you type, a tiles/list toggle, and a sort picker.
By default the Agents page shows tiles sorted with the most recently updated agent first. The header row carries three controls just left of the Connectors / Import / New Agent buttons — a search box, a tiles/list toggle, and a sort picker. Search matches against the agent's name, tagline, and description (case-insensitive substring). Tiles is good for a small, visual roster; list packs more agents into the same screen so it scales as your collection grows. The sort picker offers 'Recently updated' (the agent's `updatedAt` ticks any time you edit it) and 'Name' (alphabetical, case-insensitive). The view-mode and sort selections persist to the local keystore so they survive restarts; the search query is ephemeral — it clears when you navigate away. The controls only appear once you have at least one agent.
Steps
- Type to search.
The search box at the start of the header filters the list as you type. Matches against name, tagline, and description; case-insensitive. Click the × inside the box (or the 'Clear search' button on the no-matches card) to reset.
- Click the list icon to switch to a denser layout.
Just right of the search box. The grid icon is selected by default; click the list icon to swap to a one-row-per-agent layout.
- Pick a sort from the Sort dropdown.
Sits right next to the view-mode toggle. 'Recently updated' (default) bubbles the agents you last edited; 'Name' sorts alphabetically so you can scan for a specific agent.
- Restart the desktop — your view + sort come back.
View-mode and sort selections persist locally. The search query is not persisted — it's a transient filter that clears on next visit.
