The agent dock: pin agents at the screen edge for a quick chat

In Agently for Mac, the agent dock is a tab at the edge of your screen with the agents you pin, each as its face, and it is on unless you turn it off. Press the + at its foot (Add an agent (the + at the foot of the agent dock)) to pin another of your agents; a right-click on a face opens a menu with Open in Agently (the ··· menu of a dock chat, or a right-click on an agent in the dock) and Open in Agently (the ··· menu of a dock chat, or a right-click on an agent in the dock) › Remove from dock (or Keep on the dock for an agent that is only showing). Press a face to open a small chat with that agent beside the dock: its face and name, a ··· menu (Open in Agently takes you to the full chat in Agently, and Remove from dock unpins it), close, the conversation and a message box with the mic for an agent that can talk. Each workspace has its own dock, and each member their own pins. Settings (foot of the rail) › Agent dock (Dock settings in the + menu opens it) has Settings (foot of the rail) › Agent dock › Show the agent dock; Position (Above other apps, or In the Agently window, where it follows the text size); Display (With the Agently window, or one screen, falling back to the Agently window's screen when that one is not connected); Screen edge (Left or Right; drag the dock up or down to move it along the edge); Dock size; Hide when not in use (it slides into the edge and the pointer at the edge brings it back); Show a strip at the edge (a thin strip where it hides, warm while an agent waits for you); Show finished work (what an agent finishes shows beside the dock for a moment); Show agents with new messages (an agent not on the dock shows while it has something new or waits for you); and Agents on the dock, where you reorder or remove the pinned ones.
