An agent can also show **Needs input** when it is waiting for a permission decision or an answer to a question. Open the agent row to inspect its read-only transcript and handle the request in the child-agent view. In the sidebar and Kilo tab, the transcript opens in a read-only editor tab. In Agent Manager, it opens in the right-hand inspector.

Use these controls in the expanded strip:
Use these controls in the background-agent strip:

- **Stop** cancels a running agent and its child session.
- **Stop all (N)** cancels every running background agent for the current session without stopping the main agent.
- **Dismiss** hides one finished agent from the strip. It does not delete the transcript or the agent record.
- **Clear finished** hides all agents that are no longer running.
- **Open all** opens every visible background agent at once, including finished agents and agents hidden behind the overflow count.
- **Continue in background** appears when a foreground subagent is running. It detaches that work so the parent session can continue while the subagent runs in the background.

Stopping the main agent with **Stop** or `Esc` ends the current turn but leaves background agents running. Use **Stop all (N)** or an individual agent's **Stop** to cancel background work.

## Shared Settings

Settings apply across extension surfaces, including the sidebar and Agent Manager. The standalone CLI uses the same `~/.config/kilo/kilo.jsonc` (global) and `./kilo.jsonc` (project) files when used directly.
