Chat

/chat is the first thing you see in the EnClaw sidebar — a place to talk directly with an AI model, with your conversations organised into projects. It's the full web experience: type a request, watch the response stream in live, and pick any past conversation back up exactly where you left it.

  1. Sign in at your organisation's EnClaw address (your admin will have shared it — the product home is https://enclaw.com).
  2. Open Chat, hit New chat, and type your request. The response streams in as it's written, so you can see the work happening rather than staring at a spinner.

Projects — folders with a brain​

The left rail groups your conversations into projects:

  • All Chats holds every conversation you haven't filed into a project, with a count of the unfiled ones.
  • Projects are collapsible groups, each with a name, a colour, and its own chats. The most recent chats in a project sit directly underneath it for one-click access.

Creating a project takes seconds: click the new-project button at the top of the rail, type a name, pick a colour, press Create.

What makes a project more than a folder is its context. Hover a project and choose the cog (Edit project context) to give it a description, a system prompt, files, and memories — and every chat inside that project automatically inherits all of it. Put the client brief and the style guide on the project once, and every conversation in it starts pre-briefed.

The other hover actions are what you'd expect: Rename changes the name, and Delete removes the project after a confirmation — its conversations aren't lost, they simply move back to All Chats.

Your conversation list​

The main pane lists the conversations for whatever you've selected (All Chats or a project), newest first. Each row shows the conversation's title, the model it last used, and when it was last touched. From a row you can:

  • Open it — click to jump back into the full conversation.
  • Move it to a project — a dropdown on each row files it into any project (or back to Unassigned).
  • Delete it — after a confirmation.

New chat (top right) starts fresh. If you have a project selected, the new chat is created inside it and inherits the project's context.

Good asking habits​

A little context goes a long way. Compare:

"deals?"

with:

"Which open deals are due to close in the next 3 weeks? Owner and value, soonest first."

Both will get an answer, but the second gets the right answer first time. Brief EnClaw like a capable colleague: what you want, any constraints, and what "done" looks like.

Good to know​

  • If Chat says no model is available, your organisation hasn't finished setting up an AI provider yet — that's one for your admin, not you.
  • Chat is for direct conversations with the model. Work you hand to agents — and everything they produce — shows up under My Sessions.
  • You don't have to be at your desk. You can chat with EnClaw agents from Slack, Microsoft Teams and Telegram too — see Chatting from Slack, Teams & Telegram.
