# Efficient workspace

Cherry Studio's main window consists of a sidebar, tabs, and a content area. Conversation topics and Agent tasks can be opened in multiple tabs at the same time, or split into separate windows; the input area toolbar can be adjusted to suit your usage habits.

### Scenarios suitable for using separate windows

* Keep reference conversations while running Agent tasks;
* Pin long-term monitoring tasks to prevent them from being covered by other windows;
* Place conversations, files, or tasks on different monitors;
* When presenting or sharing a task, do not expose other tabs in the main window.

### Recommended layouts

For office writing, keep reference conversations in the main window and move the "Writing" Agent to the screen on the right; for coding, pin the Agent task and keep files and documents in the main window; for long-running monitoring tasks, use a separate window, but do not place tasks that require frequent permission confirmations somewhere out of sight.

{% hint style="info" %}
A separate window still belongs to the same Cherry Studio data environment. It is not a new account or private space; the content of the same topic or task will still be saved in sync.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cherryai.com.cn/docs/en-us/advanced-basic/workbench.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
