Message cards
The interactive cards Solitud uses to ask you for input.
Most of the time Solitud replies in plain, formatted text. But when it needs something from you — a decision, a value, a secret — or wants to hand you a result, it uses an interactive card right inside the chat. Cards keep the build moving without you having to hunt through menus.
This page is a reference for the cards you'll see.

Cards that ask you for input
Quick confirmations
When guessing would be expensive to undo, Solitud pauses and asks. A "Quick confirmations needed" card lists one or more short questions. Tap a question to expand it, then pick one of the suggested options or choose Other… to type your own answer. Once everything is answered, your replies fold back into the plan and the build resumes.
Set a value
A "Set a value" card asks for a simple piece of information the AI needs — a name, a URL, a number. Choose from a dropdown when options are offered, or type the value and Save.
Provide a secret
When an integration needs an API key, token, or password, you'll get a "Secrets needed" card. You can Paste the value, Upload it as a file, or have Solitud Generate a strong one for you.
Your secrets are encrypted on the workspace and never shown to the AI. You can reveal a stored secret later under Settings → Secrets, where it stays visible for a short window after a two-factor check. See Payments for a common example.
Attach a file
An "Attach a file" card appears when the AI needs a specific document to continue — a reference image, a spreadsheet to import, and so on. You can pick a file you've already added to the workspace, or upload a new one through the message box and it links automatically.
Set up a service
For multi-step integrations (for example, connecting a payment provider), a "Set up …" card lays out what's involved: the numbered steps, roughly how long it takes, and exactly which credentials you'll come back with. When you're ready, choose "I have the credentials — let's build." You can also ask to see the plan anyway to review first, or report wrong steps if something looks off.
Pick an option
A picker card presents a single-choice list — for instance, which GitHub repository to use. Select an option to continue. Some pickers also let you Create new right there.
Fill in a form
A form card collects a few typed fields at once (text, numbers, or passwords). Password fields are encrypted in the workspace and never shown to the AI. Fill it in and Submit.
Cards that show you something
Instructions to follow
When you need to do something outside Solitud — add a DNS record, register a webhook — you'll get an instructions card with the exact values laid out and a Copy button on each. After you've made the change, use the card's Recheck or Continue button so Solitud can verify it. This is how custom domains and payment webhooks are set up.
Files to download
A "… files ready" card lists files you can download — individually, or several at once as a bundle (up to 50 at a time).
To export your entire app source, connect GitHub rather than downloading files one by one.
Status
A status card reports the outcome of a longer operation with a clear state — Working…, Done, or Failed — so you always know where a step landed.
Why cards?
Cards let Solitud ask for precisely what it needs, when it needs it, and let you answer in place. Provide things only when you're asked — you never have to paste keys or pick files preemptively.
