First Run
When you launch LastBrowser for the first time:

- Main Window — Dark-themed interface with sidebar and content area.
- Server Status — Python backend starts automatically. Status shows "connected" when ready.
From here you can create workspaces, configure AI agents, pin web apps, start browsing, and open the Command Palette (Ctrl+K).
Setting Up Workspaces
Each workspace has its own tabs, cookies, apps, and kanban boards — fully isolated.
Create a Workspace

- Name it, pick an emoji icon, choose an accent color.
- Switch between workspaces by clicking their names.
Manage Workspaces
- Rename: Right-click and select Rename.
- Reorder: Drag and drop in the switcher.
- Pause: Free up resources for inactive workspaces.
- Export/Import: Share workspace configurations as JSON.
Navigation hub with one-click access to all panels:

Configuring AI Agents
- Open the Agents panel.
- Click Add Agent and configure: name, model (e.g.
