When a workspace is attached, CX gets a full developer toolkit. You just ask; these are the abilities behind it.

Group Tools What they do
Explore workspace_repo_map, workspace_tree, workspace_read_folder, workspace_glob, workspace_search, workspace_find_symbol Map a project (files, classes, functions, entry points), find text and symbols.
Read & write workspace_read_file, workspace_write_file, workspace_edit_file, workspace_apply_patch, workspace_create_folder, workspace_move, workspace_delete Precise edits by snippet or unified diff; moves and deletes ask first.

Tip

Hinglish tip: Kaam khatam hone ke baad file chahiye to bolo "Downloads mein export karo". workspace_export file ko phone ke Downloads folder mein daal deta hai.
