Editing with AI

AI setup builds a whole site from one brief. This is the other half: an agent that lives in the page builder and edits the page you are looking at, one instruction at a time.

It is the difference between "build me a site" and "make this section breathe, and move the photo to the right".

The AI dock

/admin/builder

Open Edit with AI inside the builder and you get a conversation, not a single prompt box. The thread is kept per page, so you can come back tomorrow and continue where you left off.

Streaming
Work appears as it happens, with a Stop button that genuinely stops it.
A step trail
What the agent did, in order, including when something failed.
Reference images
Attach a screenshot or a photograph and ask for something in that direction.
Version history
Every change is a version. Roll back from the builder as usual.

The agent can see its own work

After making a change the agent looks at the rendered result and checks it against what you asked for. That closed loop is why it can fix its own spacing mistakes rather than confidently reporting success on a broken layout.

Note: It distinguishes a screenshot of your page from a reference image you attached. Asking for "something like this" does not make it copy your existing page back onto itself.

What it is good at

Restyling
Type scale, spacing, colour, emphasis. It works through the design tokens rather than hard coding values.
Restructuring
Splitting a section, mirroring a layout, reordering, removing an element outright.
Art direction
Shaping and placing a section feature image, and setting columns on a product or collection list.
Raw CSS
Hand it CSS and it converts it into typed style operations rather than pasting a style tag.
Tip: Ask for one change at a time and look at the result. A long compound instruction is harder for it to get right and harder for you to review.

Choosing a model

/admin/integrations/ai

You can set a default model for each AI capability separately, and override it for a single generation or a single chat turn when you want something more capable for one hard task.

Note: The picker only offers models that can actually do the job. A model with no vision is not offered for work that involves looking at an image, and you are warned before sending an image to one that cannot see it.
