Guide
Your workspace
The interface is a full workspace: conversations, settings, themes and two languages, installable as an app.
Conversations
- History is grouped into Today, Yesterday and Earlier, and search looks through titles and message text.
- Each conversation can be renamed, downloaded as Markdown or deleted.
- Back up every conversation and preference to a JSON file and restore it on another machine; documents are uploaded again there.
- Clear all local data removes every conversation and indexed document, and keeps browser data if the service can't confirm the deletion.
Settings
- Four tabs: Appearance, Answers, Model & connection, and Documents & speed.
- Changes to the model, retrieval, uploads, OCR and indexing speed apply while ParsRAG runs, without a restart. Each setting shows its .env value and can be reset to it.
Appearance and language
- Light and dark themes, switched with a circular reveal from where you click.
- Four color palettes: ParsRAG green, Ocean blue, Quiet indigo and Warm sienna.
- Persian is the default language. Switching flips the whole layout between right-to-left and left-to-right, and each answer follows its own language.
- On narrow screens the conversation list becomes a panel you open.

Guided tour and app install
- A 33-step tour opens on first visit, walks through every control in place, and never changes your settings or data. Replay it any time from Settings → Appearance → Workspace tour.
- Install ParsRAG as an app. The interface opens offline, but answers still need the service; model requests and document data are never cached.
- If something fails while drawing the page, a recovery screen replaces the blank page and your data stays saved.
