Starting a New Conversation in Trunk Tools

How and when to start a new conversation in Trunk Tools to keep your answers focused.

Starting a New Conversation in Trunk Tools

Trunk Tools organizes your questions and answers into conversations. Starting a new conversation gives you a clean slate — helpful whenever you move to a new topic, so answers stay focused and easy to find later.


Who Can Do This

  • ✅ All roles — anyone with access to a project can start a new conversation in it.


When to Start a New Conversation

  • You're switching topics — a fresh conversation keeps unrelated questions from mixing together.

  • You've switched projects — start fresh so answers pull from the right project's documents.

  • You want a clean record — each conversation is saved on its own, so you can return to it later.


How to Start a New Conversation

Step 1: Open a New Conversation

From the main screen, start a new conversation to clear the current thread and begin fresh.

Step 2: Ask Your Question

Type your question in the prompt bar the way you'd ask a knowledgeable teammate. Trunk Tools answers from your project documents and links to the sources it used.

Note: Your past conversations stay available in the Conversations panel, so starting a new one never deletes an older thread.
