The Copilot automatically knows:
  • Which environment you’re viewing
  • Which services are deployed
  • Current deployment status
  • Recent errors or issues

Best Practices

While the Copilot knows your current environment, being specific helps:Instead of: “Why is it failing?”Try: “Why is the Frontend service deployment failing?”
The contextual suggestions are tailored to common tasks:
  • Click on a suggested question to get started
  • They’re designed for your current page context
  • Great for learning what’s possible
Build on previous answers:
  1. “What services are in error state?”
  2. “Show me logs for the Frontend service”
  3. “How do I fix this deployment error?”
Speed up your workflow:
  • ⌘ I (Mac) or Ctrl I (Windows/Linux) to open
  • Type your question and press Enter
  • ESC to close the panel

System Status

At the bottom of the Copilot panel, you’ll see the system status:
  • All systems operational 🟢 - Everything working normally
  • Degraded performance 🟡 - Some issues affecting performance
  • Partial outage 🟠 - Some features unavailable
  • Major outage 🔴 - Significant service disruption
This helps you understand if issues you’re experiencing are related to the Qovery platform itself.
