Ted keeps reading the chat while he works. Send more as it comes to mind, change what’s waiting, or stop him at once.
1

Send another message

Type it and send it as usual. It waits at the end of the chat, and Ted reads it at his next step. He keeps the work he’s done.
2

Change it while it waits

Press the pencil (Edit message) on a waiting message to change it, or press Remove.
3

Have Ted take it now

Press Interrupt and run all pending messages. Ted stops his current step and takes your waiting messages.
4

Or stop him

Press Stop response. It also stops a website build this chat started. While only a build is running, the button is Stop build. On a computer, pressing Esc twice does the same.
5

Send what’s waiting

After you stop Ted, waiting messages stay put. Send a new message to take them along, or press Resume sending queued messages.
A few requests, like a fix you send from Build, wait their turn instead, marked “Runs after the current task”.

Check that it worked

A reply you stopped ends with “Stopped”. A message Ted has taken shows two check marks (“Read by Ted”).

If something goes wrong

Ted stopped before he finished. Press Continue under his reply, and he picks up where he left off.
He took as many steps as one reply allows. Press Continue, or send a follow-up, like “Keep going.” Do the same when he says “this turn reached its credit limit.”
Your credits ran out partway through. Get more credits, then press Continue once the chat says “You have credits again, so Ted can pick up where he left off.” See When you run out of credits.
Ted’s reply stopped partway, and he says so in his own words. Press Continue under it, and he carries on.

FAQ

No. What he finished stays. A website build he was in the middle of stops, and your website stays at its last saved version. To take a change back, see Undo a change or ask again.
Continue shows only under the newest reply, once Ted is free and no message is waiting to send. If you’re out of credits, it comes back once you have credits again.
