Sharing Conversations

Share a chat conversation with a teammate over a temporary tunnel link or a permanent Agentastic link, with control over what the share includes.

Overview#

Any chat conversation can be turned into a web page a teammate can open. Both options are in the chat tab's options menu, the one behind the sliders icon in the tab bar, also reachable by right-clicking the tab.

OptionWhere the page is served fromHow long the link lasts
Share (via Tunnel)Your Mac, through a temporary Cloudflare tunnelUntil you stop sharing or quit Agentastic
Share (via Agentastic)agentastic.comUntil you delete it

The items appear only while a tab is in Chat. A terminal tab showing raw output has no structured conversation to publish.

What a share includes#

The sheet asks before it publishes, because a link cannot be recalled once sent.

SettingDefaultNotes
TitleThe tab's nameShown as the page heading and in link previews
Include tool input and outputOnWithout it the page shows that tools ran, but not what they read or wrote
Include the agent's thinkingOffReasoning traces are verbose and usually unread; they stay out unless you ask for them

Sub-agent conversations, the plan, file-change summaries, approvals, and questions are always included. They are what make a coding conversation legible to someone who was not there.

What is removed automatically#

Absolute paths are rewritten before the conversation leaves your Mac. Your working directory becomes . and your home directory becomes ~, everywhere they appear, including inside tool payloads and diffs.

Images pasted into the conversation travel inside the page as inlined data. Anything too large is replaced by its file name. No image is ever loaded from a remote address, so opening a shared page cannot report the reader's IP address to a third party.

Very long conversations are shortened to fit the transport limit. Tool output is trimmed first and messages are never dropped; the page says so at the top when this happens.

The credential warning#

Before publishing, Agentastic scans the conversation for text shaped like a credential: API keys, tokens, and private key blocks. Matches are listed in the sheet with the middle of the value hidden.

This is a warning, not a block. A transcript legitimately contains strings that look like keys, and only you can tell the difference. Turning off thinking or tool details re-runs the scan, because excluding a section can remove the finding with it.

Share via Tunnel#

Choose Share (via Tunnel), review the options, and click Share. Agentastic renders the conversation, serves it from a local address reachable only through the tunnel, and hands you a public link.

The page updates itself while the conversation continues. A teammate watching the link sees new messages and tool calls appear without reloading, and their open tool sections and scroll position survive the refresh.

While a tunnel share is running the menu changes to Copy Tunnel Link and Stop Sharing (Tunnel).

Three things end the share: stopping it, closing the chat, and quitting Agentastic. The link stops resolving immediately in all three cases. Anyone holding the link can read the conversation while it is live, so treat it as public.

Share via Agentastic#

Choose Share (via Agentastic) to upload the conversation and get a link at agentastic.com/share/… that keeps working after you close your laptop. This requires being signed in to your Agentastic account.

Pick who can read it:

  • Anyone with the link. Reachable by the link, not listed and not indexed by search engines. This is the default.
  • Public. Additionally listable and indexable.

Once a conversation has been shared, the menu offers Copy Agentastic Link and Update Agentastic Share. Updating replaces the content at the link you already sent rather than creating a second one. Delete Share takes the page down.

Deleting your Agentastic account removes every conversation you shared along with it.
