Get it for macOS

Browse the active project beside every BB thread, with Git status, previews, diff counts, and live agent activity. Navigate files and folders scoped to the current Environment or Worktree. Preview text, Markdown, and image files inside BB. See reads, writes, added, deleted, and changed files with configurable colors and metadata. Requires BB 0.48+ and a thread with an available Environment; it uses no external service or account.


Overview

View source

Browse the project that belongs to the active BB thread without leaving the right sidebar.

What you get

  • The current Environment or Worktree's file and folder tree.
  • Git status indicators for files and folders when the workspace is a Git repository.
  • BB's built-in preview for text, Markdown, and image files.

How it works

The panel follows the Environment attached to the active thread. It performs read-only, environment-scoped filesystem and Git reads and does not require an account, API key, or external service.

The interface follows the host document or browser locale by default. English and German are supported; unsupported or unavailable locales fall back to English. The settings menu provides an explicit automatic, English, or German preference. File paths, filenames, branch names, and raw Git data remain unchanged.

Requirements

The plugin requires a BB version compatible with the package's declared engine range and a thread with an available Environment for the tree to appear.

File ManagerManage the files on the machine bb runs on without a terminal: browse, upload, move, rename, extract and hand them to the agent. Opens as a sidebar page, as a tab beside a thread that can start in that thread's folder, and from a file link in a message. Double-click shows images, PDF, video, Markdown and code; Space looks inside zip, tar, 7z and rar archives without extracting them. Multi-gigabyte uploads resume after a dropped connection, and several files or a whole folder download as one zip. On a phone, selected rows get an Actions bar with the whole row menu. Access stays inside the home folder of the user bb runs as; tar, 7z and rar archives need tar and 7z on that machine.Foma584
FilesA VS Code-style file explorer and editor for the workspace behind a thread. Search in files finds a word across every file in the project: results are grouped by file with each hit highlighted, and clicking one opens the file on that line. It is smart case, with match-case, whole-word and regex toggles, and built for typing — file contents stay in memory between searches, so refining a query re-runs in tens of milliseconds, and a regex runs in its own worker so a runaway pattern cannot freeze BB. Around it: a file tree that shows dotfiles, editor tabs, a go-to-file palette (Cmd+P), find in the open file (Cmd+F), syntax highlighting in your BB code theme, and edit and save guarded so a change an agent made underneath you is never clobbered. Markdown files open rendered, with the source and the editor one click away. Two pickers choose the project and then its checkout or one of its worktrees; beside a thread it is pinned to that thread's worktree. Adds a `bb files` command so agents can browse and read the same workspace from the CLI, on whichever machine it lives.AbdElrahman Telb439
