Multi-step agent loop
Assistant can run a multi-turn loop (route, refine, tool calls) with server-side parity (e.g. native-assist / edge functions)—document at a high level, not implementation detail.
What this is
Oasis can run a multi-step loop: interpret your request, optionally call tools, refine its plan, then answer. You see streaming text and tool rows as intermediate steps complete.
How to use it
- Prefer one goal per message; follow up to adjust.
- Approve confirmations when the assistant needs permission for risky steps.
- If loops feel stuck, reset the thread or ask for a smaller sub-task.
Notes and limits
Server-side routing and model choice may change between builds; behavior stays “goal in, actions out.”

Active tool indicator
Shows when a browser “tool” action is in progress so users know the assistant is acting on the browser, not only typing text.
Assistant themes
Multiple light and dark themes for the assistant chrome (not only system theme); choice syncs via prefs / bridge.
Busy / streaming state
Visual feedback while the model or tools are working (AssistantBusyBar, streaming into the timeline).
