Mention files, folders, and skills
Use @ to select project files or folders and / to select skills. Kora displays them as compact contextual references in both the composer and sent messages.
Add context with @ and /
Section titled “Add context with @ and /”- Type
@, then search for a file or folder. Results use different icons and show a relative path to distinguish matching names. - Type
/, then search for a skill. - Select the result to add it to the message.
Matching is fuzzy: an abbreviation whose characters occur in the right order can find a non-contiguous name. Folder roots are searched in parallel; local and remote folders use most-specific prefix matching so mentions never cross root boundaries. This helps find a known item; it is not a semantic or file-content search.
For a folder result, press Enter to continue browsing its contents, or Tab to attach that folder as message context. You can also add a folder from its File Explorer context menu.
The composer shows a Tab to browse · Enter to confirm hint above the menu while fuzzy search is open. Paths with spaces are auto-quoted in the message text to avoid tokenization errors.
Open a referenced item
Section titled “Open a referenced item”Select a reference in a sent message:
| Reference | Result |
|---|---|
| File | Opens and expands the File Explorer to the file, then selects it. |
| Folder | Brings the File Explorer to that folder. |
| Skill | Opens its SKILL.md in Monaco as a preview. |
Hover a mention chip to see the full path in a tooltip. Click the chip to restore the mention in the composer and reopen the fuzzy search.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”- The expected result is missing → try a shorter or differently ordered part of its name; the search uses relative names and fuzzy matching.
- Enter opens a folder instead of adding it → use
Tabto attach the folder as context. - A skill will not open → confirm its
SKILL.mdremains available in the configured skill location.
