Using Bud in Projects
Bud helps with the project you are working on in your workspace. Inside the Bud workspace the conversation stays with that project, and Bud can ask follow-up questions.

Do
•Ask Bud questions inside a saved project, or pick up saved project work
•Use the typed composer when voice support is unavailable or limited
•Use Conversation Mode where supported to speak turns and review the transcript/status
•Use MyProjects to return to saved projects
Don't
•Look for the floating Bud button inside the Bud workspace - the workspace is already your conversation with Bud
•Use Bud to create borrow requests or Feed posts automatically
Common Questions
What is Conversation Mode?
Conversation Mode is the Bud voice-input mode with visible idle, listening, processing/responding, stopped, and fallback states where platform support allows it.
Why is the floating Bud button missing in Projects?
Projects is built around the Bud workspace, which is itself your conversation with Bud, so the floating button is turned off across the whole Projects area rather than only on the workspace screen. Inside the workspace a second button would be a second door into the same place; on the other Projects screens, open a saved project from MyProjects to be in the workspace.
