Taurus 0.2.0 — The DROPZONE
🗂️ The DROPZONE — hand files to your agent, locally
Taurus 0.2.0 adds a DROPZONE to the sidebar. Drag a file or folder onto it (or paste, or pick one) and it lands in an input/ folder inside the agent's working directory — with its full path dropped straight into the prompt.
The point: your files never leave your machine. They're placed on local disk right next to the agent, so Claude can work on them in place with its normal tools — grep, read, edit — without anything being uploaded to a server or a cloud. Local files, local agent, local tools.
What you can do
- Drag & drop a file or folder onto the DROPZONE and pick a mode:
- Move — move it into
input/(keeps your working folders tidy) - Copy — copy it into
input/ - Path only — don't touch the file, just drop its path into the prompt
- (a drop that doesn't land on a zone defaults to Path only — nothing is moved)
- Move — move it into
- Paste object — paste clipboard text, an image, or a file copied in Explorer; it's saved into
input/. - ➕ — pick a file from anywhere on the computer (the dialog opens in
input/). A file already ininput/goes straight to the prompt; one from elsewhere asks Move / Copy / Path only. - In every case the full absolute path is inserted into the active terminal, so you can immediately ask the agent to grep / read / analyse it.
On shared network working folders the list shows only the files you added this session, so you keep focus on your own files.
Also in this release
- Sidebar/topbar cleanup: ⚙ Settings and ⟳ Reload moved to the top-right next to the tabs; the PROJECTS and DROPZONE headings now share a centered divider with a ➕.
- Per-project edit and delete (with an inline confirmation) on hover.
Implements #38.
