Managing tasks and repos
You can start a new task from three places:
- Click the Jules icon to return to the home screen and a blank prompt input
- Use the new button in the top navigation
- From within a specific repo view, click new task
Each task runs in its own virtual machine and maintains its own logs, environment setup, and code changes.
Pausing or deleting tasks
Section titled “Pausing or deleting tasks”Sometimes you need to stop Jules mid-task or clean up old runs.
- To pause a task: click the pause icon next to the task name
- To delete a task: hover over the task in the repo view and click the trash icon.
Paused tasks can be resumed later; deleted tasks are removed permanently.
