A task is a coding session running in its own isolated cloud environment. When you start one, Niteshift clones your repository, runs your Niteshift setup script, boots your dev server, and hands control to the agent inside the environment.

​
Where tasks come from

​
Workspace

Every task opens with a chat panel on the right and four tabs on the left.
  • Chat: talk to the agent. Markdown supported. Paste, drag, or upload screenshots, logs, and reference docs. Drafts persist locally per task.
  • Preview: live iframe of your dev server.
  • Git: pull request summary, CI checks, commits, and every changed file. Queue inline comments on a range of lines. The agent picks them up like review feedback in its next response.
  • Terminal: direct shell into the cloud environment.
  • Logs: real-time stdout and stderr from every process, with search.

​
Lifecycle

Tasks suspend after inactivity and resume on demand when you reopen or prompt them. The filesystem and chat history persist across suspend/resume; long-running processes (your dev server, watchers) restart on resume.

​
Visibility

Tasks are visible to everyone in your organization. Anyone in the org can open the task and watch it work; only the owner can send prompts.

​
Commit and pull request

When the agent finishes, a stop hook asks it to commit and push. Niteshift opens a pull request that respects your repository’s PR preference configured on the settings page (defaults to draft).
