Side-by-side view
Hwayeon's and Soram's conversations sit side by side. One input below sends the same message to both.
When to use it
Compare the architect Soram's and coordinator Hwayeon's conversations while giving them the same instruction. This view opens first when TurtleCenter starts. Return anytime with Side-by-side view at the top of the sidebar.
To divide work among several agents, use the User room; to gather selected agents' opinions, use the Meeting room. Side-by-side view addresses only Hwayeon and Soram.

- Hwayeon window, left: A blue strip and title above Hwayeon's original conversation interface.
- Soram window, right: A green strip and title above Soram's conversation interface. Each window uses half the width.
- Title bar: Shows the agent's name and pending message countas in '● Hwayeon · Pending 3'.
- Bottom input: Write to both agents here. It uses the same component as other rooms, but keeps a separate draft for this view.
Reading the pending count
Pending counts messages the center accepted but has not yet handed to that agent. Zero means no backlog. If the count keeps rising, the agent may not be responding. Check the sidebar indicator and the Communication monitortogether.
Input controls
| Control | Action | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Text field | Write a message, including multiple lines. A scrollbar appears as it grows. | Click anywhere in the input area to focus the text field. |
| + (attach) | Opens an image picker. You can select multiple files. | PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WEBP only. Up to four images, 8 MiB each and 20 MiB total. |
| Send | Sends your text and attached images. | Empty messages do nothing. Sending is blocked while a send is underway or an unchanged message has unresolved delivery status. |
| Enter | Same as Send. | Alt+Enter does not send. |
| Ctrl+Enter | Inserts a line break. | Use this combination rather than Enter for a new line. |
| Ctrl+V | Pastes an image attachment if the clipboard contains an image. | Names are assigned automatically, such as clipboard-1.png. Otherwise it pastes normally. |
| Attachment chip (name · size ×) | Each image has a chip. Click it to remove the attachment. | The row also shows count/maximum, total/20 MiB, and the 8 MiB per-image limit. |
| Select both To be confirmed | Sets Hwayeon and Soram as recipients. | Present in source, but visibility in the normal UI needs checking. |
| Same message / Individual messages To be confirmed | The source includes a sending-mode selector, but it is hidden. | We do not describe it as selectable until its actual availability is confirmed. |
Who receives the message?
Messages from this view go to both Hwayeon and Soram with the same content. Both conversation panels must be visible. Otherwise sending is blocked with Both Hwayeon and Soram conversations must be displayed. Clicking one panel or title does not change recipients. To message only one, open that agent's room from the sidebar. To be confirmed Whether selecting a panel alone can choose one recipient requires a hands-on check.
States and messages
| Display | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Queue registration result: Hwayeon: … · Soram: … | Shows a separate outcome for each recipient immediately after sending. | Use the meanings below. |
| Center accepted · Delivery unconfirmed | The center queued the message. Arrival at the agent has not been confirmed. | Normally wait. Check arrival in the communication monitor. |
| Processing complete | Processing for that agent is finished. | No action needed. |
| Failed before registration | The center did not accept the message. | The draft remains. Check the cause and send again. |
| Failed | Delivery failed. | The draft returns to the input. Check the agent, then resend. |
| Delivery unknown · No automatic resend | Delivery could not be established. | The center will not retry automatically to avoid duplicates. Check acceptance in the communication monitor first. |
| Route changed | The recipient or screen changed while sending. | Check the screen and recipients, then send again. |
| Not attempted | An earlier problem prevented a send to this agent. | Resolve the cause and try again. |
| Delivery unknown — no automatic resend | Sending is locked because delivery of this message is unknown. | Editing it makes it a new draft that can be sent again. |
| Choose a room before sending. | No recipient is set. | Check that both conversations are visible. |
Workflow: send the same instruction to Hwayeon and Soram
- Open Side-by-side view and check that both conversations are visible.
- Check that pending counts are near zero. If large, investigate the backlog first.
- Write the task, materials, restrictions, and completion criteria.
- Attach a reference image with + or Ctrl+V if needed.
- Press Enter or Send.
- Check that both Queue registration results show Center accepted. If one fails, investigate before separately resending to that person. To be confirmed Whether retrying a partial failure avoids resending to the already accepted recipient needs verification.
Things to know
- This view keeps its own draft. Text and attachments remain when you leave and return.
- Sent text leaves the input and returns if delivery fails. You do not need to retype a failed message.
- Replies appear in each agent's own window. One reply is not automatically sent to the other. To have agents read each other's responses, use the Meeting room. To be confirmed
- The top instruction says Select a panel and check the exact recipient in the input below. Make a habit of checking recipients before sending. To be confirmed Whether the recipient bar is normally visible needs checking.
